Collection: BRUSH CLEANING SPRAY

If you’re someone who uses makeup brushes regularly, then a brush cleaning spray isn’t just a nice-to-have — it’s a total game changer. Whether you're a pro makeup artist or just blending your everyday look, keeping your brushes clean isn’t optional. It’s essential.

Over time, brushes collect more than just leftover pigment — we’re talking about oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. And every time you skip cleaning, that mix goes right back on your face. Hello, breakouts and patchy blending.

That’s where a good brush cleaning spray steps in. It’s quick, effective, and designed to refresh your brushes without a full soap-and-water wash. Klarity Kosmetics have made it easier than ever to sanitize your tools in seconds, keeping your routine clean, your skin happy, and your makeup looking flawless.

How Do You Use a Brush Cleaning Spray Effectively?

Using a brush cleaning spray the right way makes all the difference — not just for hygiene, but for keeping your brushes in top shape.

Here’s a quick, no-fuss routine:

• Lay your brush flat on a clean towel or paper surface.
• Spray directly onto the bristles — or onto a paper towel if you prefer more control.
• Gently swirl the brush in circular motions to lift off product and grime.
• Wipe off excess, then let it air dry flat — never upright, as liquid can seep into the ferrule.

Pro Tip: Avoid soaking the base of the bristles. Too much moisture at the ferrule can loosen the glue and shorten your brush’s life.

Scientifically speaking, excess liquid breaks down adhesives over time — and once the bristles start shedding, there’s no going back.

Quick-drying sprays like the one from Klarity Kosmetics make this process even easier — clean, sanitize, and reuse in minutes, no water needed.

Is Brush Cleaner the Same as White Spirit?

Short answer? Not even close — and confusing the two can seriously ruin your brushes (and your skin).

A brush cleaning spray is specifically made for makeup brushes. It usually contains gentle ingredients like isopropyl alcohol, a bit of conditioning agent, and maybe a light fragrance. It’s safe for regular use and designed to sanitize without damaging bristles or irritating your skin.

White spirit, on the other hand, is a heavy-duty solvent used to clean paintbrushes — the kind you’d use for oil-based paints. It’s flammable, packed with harsh chemicals, and absolutely not meant to touch your face or cosmetic tools.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

If it’s not made for your makeup brushes, don’t risk it.

Does Brush Cleaning Spray Damage Brush Bristles?

It can — but only if you’re not using it right.

Let’s break it down: natural bristles (like goat or sable hair) are more delicate. They’re made of proteins, so repeated exposure to alcohol-based sprays can dry them out over time, making them feel rough or brittle. On the flip side, synthetic bristles (like nylon or taklon) are far more durable and usually hold up better with regular spray use.

That doesn’t mean you should ditch the spray. It just means you need to use it wisely.

A few tips:

• Don’t oversaturate brushes — a light mist is enough.

• Avoid daily spraying on natural bristles.

• Rotate with a gentle soap-and-water deep clean weekly.

• Always dry your brushes flat, never upright, to keep the shape intact and prevent water damage at the base.

Klarity Kosmetics’ brush spray is formulated with balance in mind — quick to clean, gentle on bristles, and ideal for keeping your tools fresh without the fallout.

Is Brush Cleaning Spray Better Than Soap and Water?

Not really better — just better for certain situations.

A brush cleaning spray is your quick fix. It’s perfect for a fast clean between looks, sanitizing on-the-go, or when you don’t have time to wait for brushes to dry. But if your brushes are feeling heavy with buildup or loaded with foundation and oils, it’s time for a deep clean with soap and water.

The smartest routine? Use both. Spray for daily maintenance, soap for the deep clean.

Spray keeps your brushes fresh; soap keeps them truly clean.
