Alright, here is another cool tool you can use to clean your makeup brushes. :D :D

(DOES THIS ITEM REMINDS YOU OF A CHARACTER FROM MONSTER UNIVERSITY? LOL)

I saw this random thing sometimes ago at a local store called Mr. DIY. It's a small silicon face cleansing brush that you grip between your fingers and use to exfoliate dead skin. I personally have tried this as a beauty tool but I feel like it's silicon bristles are not soft enough to my liking. So instead of that, I prefer to use this to clean my brushes.

Here I use my Sigma E25 brush for a demo.

1) Slightly wet the brush and the pad with water

2) Put a small amount of soap solution

3) Scrub a couple of times on the pad and rinse it with water while scrubbing along the pad to remove excess soap.

4) Push out excess water with fingers and pat them on a towel or kitchen tissue. I usually let them dry overnight.

Both Daiso silicon pad holder and Mr. DIY face brush work well but I'd personally recommend the latter for smaller brushes. The pad is way too small for large face brushes like kabuki and powder brush. That's the only con I can think of right now. It's effective, easy to clean, and affordable (less than a dollar!).
