Clinique Makeup Brush Cleanser 8 fl oz — gentle liquid formula removes makeup residue & oils

Designed for makeup brushes and applicators, this 8 fl oz cleanser helps remove foundation, powder, cream, and stubborn pigment without roughening bristles. Regular use preserves brush shape and function while supporting a cleaner routine. Allergy-tested and formulated to be mild, it suits synthetic and natural hairs when used as directed.

How does this cleanser remove makeup buildup?

The formula penetrates between bristles to dissolve cosmetic pigments and oils that accumulate after repeated use. Rinsing leaves fibers free of residue so makeup applies more evenly and colors stay true.

• Liquid solution that emulsifies creams, powders, and oils
• Rapid rinse-away for no sticky residue
• Works on both synthetic and natural brush hairs
• Allergy-tested to minimize irritation risk

How often should I clean my brushes with this product?

For everyday users, a monthly deep clean helps maintain hygiene and brush performance; professionals or those using liquid formulas daily may prefer more frequent washes. Light, quick cleans after heavy cream or liquid use helps prevent buildup between deep cleans.

• Monthly deep cleansing for general upkeep
• Weekly or after heavy liquid use for more frequent maintenance
• Quick spot-clean between full washes to remove excess product

Will this cleanser damage my brushes or affect bristle texture?

Used as instructed, the formulation preserves bristle flexibility and shape while removing debris. Avoid hot water or aggressive scrubbing; gentle lathering and reshaping while drying keeps fibers in optimal condition.

• Mild formula that helps maintain bristle integrity
• Rinse with lukewarm water and reshape brushes to dry
• Suitable for both synthetic and natural hairs when used gently

How quickly will brushes dry after cleaning?

Drying time depends on brush size and hair type: small brushes typically dry within a few hours, while large face brushes may take overnight. Proper reshaping and laying brushes flat or at an angle speeds drying and prevents water from loosening glue at the ferrule.

• Small brushes dry faster—often within a few hours
• Larger brushes may need overnight drying
• Lay brushes flat or tilt downward to protect the handle and ferrule
