Everyone knows that cleaning your makeup brushes is an absolute chore and the prices of some brush cleansers are so ridiculous that it puts you off cleaning them all because you're not willing to pay the price. Although those brush cleansers may work well (or not), I now use something that's so cheap in comparison and that can be bought from pretty much any supermarket/chemist/drugstore. JOHNSON'S BABY SHAMPOO. Yes, really. Because its baby shampoo, it has to have a simple and gentle formula as baby hairs can be very fine and delicate and the last thing you want to be doing is putting tonnes of chemicals onto them, which regular shampoos can have a lot of to achieve things such as colour vibrancy, shine, etc. So if its good for fine, delicate hair, I thought "why not try it on my brushes?"
I first tried it on my cheap, hardly reached for brushes in case there was fall out but it cleaned them so well and they were soooo fluffy and soft when they dried! They also smelt amazing too which is always a bonus! So I went on and cleaned the rest of them...

However, because it is shampoo, it will lather up quite a bit to just make sure all the suds are out completely because if not, you're brushes may fall apart because the glue holding the bristles may be damaged by the shampoo if left to dry :(
This is now such a MUST HAVE for me and I honestly think I'd be even more poor if I didn't use it (if that's possible...)
