10 Things That Go Through My Head When I’m Washing Brushes

IMG_1223

I find that brush washing is one of those things that you really have to get in the mood for. It just takes forever and leaves big foundation-laden splashes all over the bathroom and quite frankly – I can never be arsed – but there’s just something about a freshly washed brush that feels so good. I know I should do my brush laundry each weekend, but if I’m honest with myself I make it to the sink with my brushes on a bi-weekly-ish basis *cough* monthly *cough*. If there was a service where someone came over and washed your brushes for you, I would so be game for that. That, along with a Dairy Milk Giant Chocolate Button delivery service would complete my life. Here are 10 things that go through my mind when I finally get round to washing ’em…

  1. Maybe I should just do it next weekend? They don’t look that bad.
  2. No do it now, you can watch YouTube videos whilst you do it, which will make the whole thing much quicker.
  3. Man I use so much foundation and bronzer and orange-coloured makeup items. So much orange. Where is it all coming from?
  4. Hey BeautyBlender will you ever look brand new again? Why is there a pesky old foundation stain that will never wash out?
  5. I really should have done this sooner.
  6. My hands feel like prunes.
  7. Oh god. I’ve only done foundation brushes and I’ve been standing here for 10 minutes.
  8. Maybe I should just use less makeup brushes?
  9. That’s crazy talk, I love makeup brushes and every beauty lover needs 3 MAC 217’s. It’s practically the law.
  10. Fine. I vow to do this again next weekend. Oh balls the YouTube video has ended and I have wet hands and I can’t skip to the next video with my nose *stands at the sink for the next 20 minutes in silence contemplating life and the prune-like texture of my hands*

You feel me? Right, I’m off to do the deed…
