My make-up brushes collection just got a bit bigger a few days ago. In collaboration with the cutest online make-up store Licila.si I got these lovely 10 piece Jessup brushes in silver-white color. I have to admit I fell in love with them. They are the cutest, softest and fluffiest thing on earth. ♥
Revealing a secret: If you fall in love with these make-up brushes during my review make sure you like my Facebook page, because in a few days there will be an awesome giveaway happening, and MAYBE Jessup brushes will be one of the prizes… 😉

CLEANING
I also decided to share with you which brush cleanser am I using lately. It is from H&M and I clean my brushes with it after every use. You simply spray it onto the brushes and wipe them into a paper towel in a circular motion. You also need to completely clean your brushes every 3-4 weeks, depending on how much you use them. If you use them every day, I recommend you to clean them after 2 weeks max, best is if you clean them every week. Lately I completely clean them by running them under warm water and trying to get rid the residual makeup off of the bristles. I put some soap or a bit of baby shampoo on them, then swirl them into the palm of my hand. I rinse the brush until water runs clean, then dry them off in a paper towel with circular motions. After that I let them dry hanging upside down.
