Have you ever wondered how to clean beauty blenders the easy and hygienic way? I know I did! I have been using a beauty blender (or makeup sponge) for years now which means I also needed to clean them. Yes, just like your makeup brushes, you need to clean your beauty blender too! Here are my 4 super easy ways to make your sponge look like it’s new.

    To this!

1. Baby Shampoo

One of the easiest methods on how to clean beauty blenders is washing your beauty blenders with baby shampoo. Another benefit of this is that you might already have this at home! The baby shampoo is soft and doesn’t contain harsh ingredients which are better for your sponges because it won’t ruin them.

You have to wet the sponge, don’t fully squeeze all the water out, and then rub some baby shampoo in. After that, you have to rinse it with water. Do this until the water is clear and your sponge looks clean. You can add some more baby shampoo if needed! After this, let the sponges air dry.

2. Washing Machine

This method is most worthwhile if you have multiple sponges to wash because I won’t recommend throwing in your sponges with your other items unless you have the Makeup Eraser sponge. For other sponges, use a lingerie bag and throw your sponges in it, then throw the lingerie bag in the (empty!) washing machine. Use some liquid sponge cleanser to fully clean them. After this, let the sponges air dry.

This method works even better if you have the Makeup Eraser sponge as I do. It’s the burgundy one in the picture above. This sponge already comes with a wash ball and is made with special “WashTech” which prevents the makeup to transfer to any other item in the washing machine. You can also easily put it into the dryer! In my opinion, this is literally the easiest way to wash and dry your sponge + this sponge is designed for this so no risks of damaging it.

3. Sponge Soap

Nowadays there’s also specially designed soap on the market to cleanse your makeup sponges with. I’ve tried the Coloured Raine Sponge Cleaners before, which I think works amazingly and I use this frequently to cleanse not only my Coloured Raine sponges but all of them if I just want to do a quick hand wash.

Beauty Blender for example sells solid soap as well as liquid soap specially designed for your sponges and brushes. This way you just know it won’t damage your sponges and it’ll help you to easily clean them.

Just use to soap to rub into your sponge and make sure it starts to lather up, then rinse under water. Do this until the water and sponge are all clear and clean. After that, let your sponge air dry.

4. Microwave

This one might sound weird but I promise you it works! Use a microwave proof mug to make a little soap and water mixture. You can use baby shampoo or designed sponge soap for this, just squeeze a couple of drops in the water. Before you put your sponge into the mixture, make sure to wet your sponge.

Once you’ve put your wet sponge into the soap and water mixture, place it into the microwave for one minute. Wait a bit for it to cool down before grabbing it and you’ll see that the water is full of dirt and your sponge is perfectly clean! Just give it a final squeeze and rinse under clean water to make sure all the access is out of your sponge. Then just let it air dry.

    Omg I did not know you could put them in the washing machine! I would have thought it would damage them. Also the microwave one is interesting. I normally just use soap and water, sometimes shampoo. But I don’t find it the easiest and doesn’t get out the foundation stains. Lottie x

I recently bought this @ctilburymakeup lipstick in I recently bought this @ctilburymakeup lipstick in the shade Kim KW, which is @kimkardashian’s perfect nude shade 💄

This lipstick is super fair, even for my pale skin tone but I still wanted this lipstick because I think it’ll look amazing with a darker lip liner 😍 

#beautytip if you ever have a lipstick which is too light or not fully your color, you can manipulate the shade with a lip liner! 

I love this trick and I play around with lipsticks and lip liners all the time 🥰

Do you wear lip liner? Let me know in the comments 👇🏻

What should I gift my loved ones? 🎁
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This is probably the most asked question this time around. It's not always easy to find the perfect gift, especially a gift that'll fit your budget as well. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Today I posted a Beauty Gift Sets gift guide for every budget, so everyone gets the inspiration they need for the holidays. One of my favorite sets I've included in my blog post is this @balibody Christmas Set. Containing their 3 bestsellers, Ultra Dark Self Tan, Face Tan Water & BB Cream. It comes in the cutest box and it's wrapped as well so you're ready to go! 🥰
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Isn't this such a lovely gift?! #gifted

GIFTED I hate a messy space, especially my makeup GIFTED  I hate a messy space, especially my makeup drawers and so I have been investing in organizers for years now. The last year I have been updating my drawers again and came across @tidyups, a company that sells acrylic organizers AND they fit perfectly in the typical beauty influencer Ikea Alex drawers! 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I did purchase the first batch of organizers myself but I reached out to @tidyups and they kindly gifted me their newest organizers! A Display Tray, which is perfect for your foundations, concealers, setting sprays but also works well with liquid lipsticks or lipglosses. The tray is slightly lifted, so products stored in it don't lay completely flat (which I like for my foundations) and they still fit into the flat Alex drawer, as well as the deep drawer. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The other organizer I got is the Double Tray, which has two compartments. I store my concealers and primers in there as well as minis and my sponges. I really love these trays because I now can easily see what's in the drawer. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I also have their Palette Organizer, Compacts Organizer, Lipgloss Organizer, Eyeshadow Organizer, and Lipstick Organizer. As you can tell, I absolutely love them! I'll show you how all my drawers look inside in my stories soon so keep an eye out if you're interested! 🥰
