My Brushes Have Never Been Cleaner, Like New

Worked great with my new brush mat. The brushes are clean and soft. The shampoo lathered well and it was immediately apparent how well it was working. It rinsed very well after each cleaning as well, making it easy to see how clean each pass had gotten the brush. I hadn't cleaned them in a very long time so I used a fair amount of shampoo in the beginning of cleaning each brush, but after the 2nd rinse & repeat I was able to use a drop or two. There is still essentially a full bottle left, so I'm happy with how far it goes. I was buying the Ranphykx Silicon Makeup Brush Cleaning Mat and saw this as an add-on item at a reasonable price so I'm very pleased with the results. I was encouraged and happy to see no parabens or phthalates were in this product as I am trying to be conscious of those ingredients in my makeup/skincare, I certainly don't want them on the tools I use to apply them with. The scent is faint and just has a "clean" smell to it, there's nothing really memorable about it that comes to mind as I write this. It was non-offensive & hardly noticeable unless you were sniffing directly from the bottle. I did not notice a scent on my perfectly clean & dry brushes this morning. They just smelled clean. One note that's really more about my lack of attention - The foil seal on the bottle is hard to peel if you have wet hands, so be a better planner than me and open that seal before you've wet down your brushes. Scissors were helpful to me. I will definitely repurchase once I've used up the bottle.

Why the "just use soap" argument doesn't work for makeup on your face or brushes.

You know how you spend time and effort to find makeup that lasts. No matter how much you makeup you may wear, using long lasting makeup comes at a cost. You can't just rub some regular soap on your face to get that "all day mascara/eyeliner/foundation" off can you? It's the same with your brushes. This is coming from someone who really doesn't care to clean brushes. I only started using them about 7 years ago. It was 3 or so years after that I started trying to clean them. Rarely. And I thought vigorous scrubbing with hand soap was all you needed. It wasn't so I thought dish soap was all you needed. It still wasn't. I thought natural discoloration was inevitable for the lazy. Long story short, it turns out I was wrong and life is easy. Elbow grease for years was fine... until I got this stuff on a whim. The same brushes that were slowly permanently discoloring and fraying up had looked near new after my "initial" clean. I almost wish I took pictures but I I can only regret so much about a ~$5 brush cleaner.

Well worth the purchase!

I absolutely LOVE this brush shampoo! I purchases two bottles, as I do not often make purchases over $25 on Amazon. I was a little skeptical of how well it would clean my brushes since I had never tried it before, but after using this I am very pleased with the outcome. It has a faint 'shampoo scent' but nothing too overpowering, and suds like you wouldn't believe. They got all the way down to the base of the brush and gave it a really good cleaning. One of my brushes is made from boar hair (Estee Lauder powder brush) and I was worried it was going to frizz out and ruin the shape but it actually improved it after I had previously used baby shampoo. It's very soft and not at all coarse feeling. I also used this shampoo on my Beauty Blender, and it did a great job getting all the foundation out. All in all, I'd rate this product a 10/10!

Removes all heavy foundation

This cleanser is great! It fully removes all makeup from the brushes without leaving them feeling beat up (I'm not the most gentle when it comes to cleaning brushes). I use a thick foundation that soaks heavily into the bristles, but this removed it all. At first I thought it was a bit thin, but after using it, a little bit goes a long way. It has a nice lather, but very nicely & easily rinses out. I use this with the "MelodySusie Big Size Brush Cleaner" scrubby from Amazon. I was able to clean my brushes much faster than normal, and I feel more confident that I got all the makeup off the bristles. This has a very slight (not strong at all) scent of grapefruit. It's refreshing without me having to worry about it irritating my face or leaving a fragrance left on my brushes.

my only regret is not buying it sooner!

for a long time, i used ordinary hand soap to clean my brushes because i didn't know any better. i decided to pick this up because of the price and the condition of my makeup tools. the bristles were frayed and stained because cheaper hand soaps are clearly not gentle enough to retain a brush's shape, or designed to deep clean makeup out of one. after one use of this, i fell in love. the scent is very fruity and clean, but it won't cause a headache. depending on the size of the tool and severity of use, it takes 1-3 quarter-sized amounts to remove everything. in my opinion, it is most effective when paired with an eggbrush or other silicone brush cleaner. i find that it softens the bristles and conditions stray ones back into their original state. it works wonders for sponges too!

Best Brush/Sponge Cleanser

I got this originally to clean my Beauty Blender, but since it is made for brushes, I cleaned those too. I have used other cleansers for brushes in the past and thought they were great, including the liquid cleanser by Beauty Blender, until I used this one. This takes the cake for the best brush cleanser I've ever used. I didn't have to do any scrubbing or anything, each brush took about 1 second each and suddenly my hundreds of brushes were clean in the blink of an eye! I keep my brushes clean now, and I never thought I would be "that girl" who always had clean brushes...but alas here I am sitting on my high horse thanks to Ecotools. It even smells nice.

Works Great, Keeps Brushes Soft, Didn't Breakout

I hate washing my brushes, I've always done it by hand and it's always caused the big fluffy powder brushes to feel rougher or become matted no matter how hard I try to reshape them. I got this solution and used it with a makeup brush spinner (I used the Mevolic one here Mevolic Makeup Brush Cleaner and Dryer Machine, Completely Clean in Seconds and Dry in 360 Rotation with 8 Rubber Holders, Suit for All size Makeup Brushes), and I couldn't BELIEVE how amazing my brushes were afterwards! I also have insanely sensitive skin and most any soap I put on a brush will cause me to breakout when I use it later, no matter how well I typically rinse it. But I really think that this cleaner + the brush spinner worked great and I haven't had any sensitive bumps on my skin since using them.

Way Better Than I Thought!

I was kind of hesitant and thought maybe the reviews were too good to be true ... but they aren't! I bought one of those makeup brush spinning cleaners and wasn't sure what to use with it. I had tried some Mary Kay makeup remover thinking that would work but it didn't. So I got this and did some hand washing as per the instructions and goops and goops of old makeup just flowed off (yes, that's gross and I will never let my brushes get THAT bad). Then I put it through the spinning machine and my brushes are back to the original "white" brissels that they are supposed to be! Highly recommend :)

Performs as stated

I decided, after about 10 years, to wear eyeshadow again. I purchased some from a high-end department store, but it did not include brushes. Store wanted $50 for 2 brushes. I pulled out my old makeup case and found 7 brushes I had purchased 16 years or so ago. They were from high-end department stores. I knew that I had never cleaned them during their 5-6 years of usage. This shampoo cleaned these brushes in record time. I think I cleaned all 7 brushes in less than 10 minutes. I hung them over the edge of the sink to dry. They look brand new. I am very pleased with this product.

Amazing!!

I've been using the beauty blender liquid cleanser for my brushes and beauty blenders. It works okay and smells great but is super expensive. I just received this eco tools cleanser yesterday and I right away went to use it on my beauty blenders and most used makeup brush and OMG!! While I don't absolutely love the smell of this one, for the price and how well it works I can absolutely get used to it. My beauty blenders have not looked this clean since I first bought them and this stuff even got stains that the BB cleanser itself couldn't get out. Save your money and buy the eco tools!
