Daiso Detergent for Puff and Sponge

Contents: 80ml
Price: HK$12
Local of Purchase: Daiso

My Opinion:

I've read alot of raves about this product, but noticed that I use it in a slightly different way, I've noticed that alot of you like to dilute the product with water but I usually use this straight on my brushes, it will get rid of everything, including gel liners.

I think by using this product undiluted on your brushes, it will leave them really dry, so I only use it on my synthetic brushes, for my natural hair brushes, I usually stick with baby shampoo.

Daiso Brush Cleanser

I used to wash my brushes weekly with a baby shampoo, but after reading all the raves about the Daiso Brush Cleanser, I had to try it. Well this stuf does thoroughly cleanse all my brushes, with the baby shampoo there are always some traces of blush or foundation left in my brushes (stains), but the Daiso Brush Cleanser just removes everything.


I had the Mac brush cleanser because the baby shampoo does not remove my concealer or gel liner from my brushes, but I've learned from utube to pour this in a spritzer and spritz it over my brush everytime I've finish using it. I've tried to do this for several weeks, but I just don't have the time to do this everyday (who has?), so I've just skip this step....


Conclusion: Mac is a goner while Daiso is a must
