False Eyelash and Makeup Sponge Cleansing Tips

Coming is the season for parties and gatherings! I guess even those who seldom wear makeup will use a bit of mascara or foundation in this special period.

For healthy skin, remember to remove makeup clearly. This helps your skin survive the Christmas and New Year parties.

Besides removing makeup, note the hygiene of makeup tools. They can harm your skin with gems. Here I’d love to share tips to clean these tools well. Clean them after each use to keep your skin away from dirt and gems.

To clean False Eyelashes

Fake eyelashes seem a must-have for Christmas party looks. Yet, they can get messy after a day wear with mascara and dirt. Here is how to clean false lashes after each use:


1.Remove the false lashes with cleansing oil and pick out the glue residue.


2.Soak the false lashes into eye makeup remover or foaming cleansing with water.
3.Soak for a few minutes to clean the mascara residue.


4.Take out the false lashes and brush with a clean eyebrow brush (or even tooth brush!)


5.Wipe and press dry with a tissue.


6.Put the lashes back to the package to let them set.
7.When the lashes get dry, brush and set the lashes with eyebrow brush or lash comb.

To clean Makeup Sponge

If you don’t wanna waste the sponge after using it once, clean it to prevent acne due to gems inside the sponge.


1.Soak the used sponge into a bowl of clean water.


2.Mix with some cleansing foam, makeup remover or soap. Press the sponge gently. (NOTE: Never pull or squeeze the sponge.)


3.Wash with clean water.


4.Press dry with a tissue or tower. Let the sponge dry naturally.

My Confession :>

I know how important it is to keep the makeup tools clean. Yet I often feel too tired to wash them arriving home late. I just remove my makeup and go into bed in an instance. How I try my nest: wash the tools the next morning!
