How to get your white haired makeup brushes white again

In this post I will show you how to get your brushes from looking like this


to this:



I find white haired makeup brushes are probably one of the hardest things to get clean and look like how they did when you first got them.

All you need is some type of shampoo and olive oil.


This is the process in picture form:








This isn't a quick process because liquid foundation really gets into the brushes and since this was the first time really cleaning them out the right way I found I had to repeat the process quite a few times.  But it was well worth the effort.


Here is another set I cleaned the same way:




The only problem I ran into is when I go to use the makeup brushes, some of the brushes can be a little oily.  You can fix that by dipping your brush into powder and that soaks up the oil.

I found this solution by researching on the internet and this seemed to be the consensus on how to get the brushes to their original white and this is proof it works.
