   Just wash it with antibacterial hand, body, or dish soap for about 30 seconds. Rinse with hot water. All set.

   umm that is disgusting if you’re going to keep it

   A few drops of dishsoap and water. You should clean your make-up brushes regularly, anyway.

    Put it under water and rub the slobber out.
    Then, dry it off with a blow dryer so it gets fluffy again.

    = )

    Shampoo followed by a lemon juice or vinegar rince, followed by a hot water rince.

    u should throw it away because it is really bad for your skin and it could get infected. not healthy!

    wash it with bleach, I personally would have thrown the thing away.

    Use dish detergent and water. Use the palm of your hand to make a good lather and repeat until clean. Use a towel to dry the excess water, then let the brush dry overnight.

    buy a new one. It is so difficult to wash all of the soap and get all of the germs out from each bristle. Then those germs will get on your makeup then on your face. And even later in life if u throw away the brush the germs will still be on whatever makeup it touched.

    please dont listen to anyone saying to clean it!!! just throw it, you know where your dog licks, and you dont want those germs on your face. sorry if it was a fav, but its time for a new one.

    You should get a new one. You don’t want that near your eyes now.
20. rarejewels23 said on February 13, 2009 at 7:40 pm

    wash if you still want to keep it.. but you would proballi hav 2 use bleach or something strong.. but its better if you would just buy a new one
22. Pandora said on February 16, 2009 at 10:06 am

    Use makeup brush cleaner at any beauty supply store. You should do this once a week any way to keep your brushes and makeup and your skin bacteria free. Don’t have this? Go buy it!
    In the mean time, dish soap and warm/hot water, dry as much as possible on paper towels.
