Maddie says Hello!: November 2014

I have only a few tools in my self-declared kikay kit. So few you could count one to ten and that sums it all up LOL!

My brushes are the most used and abused in my kit (after all, yun lang naman ang mayroon ako haha). I have to be comfortable in using them so I would always clean my brushes. What do I use? I usually wash them with same shampoo my mom use which is Head & Shoulders (Is it bad? People please tell me!). Then I lightly spray it with alcohol before I let it to air dry.

I have been doing this since the first time I used my brushes.

One day, I decided to sneak a peek at Suesh Store and came out with this: Parian Spirit - Professional Make-up Brush Cleaner (8 Oz.).

I bought a small clear dish as my washing bin :)

Literally my tools.

Product Description: A cleaning agent that has a watery consistency. Upon opening it has a strong orange peel scent. When you sniff it long enough, it turns into this medicated scent. Transparent in appearance but when you dip something in it, oil-looking patches will be seen.

Product Performance: It did clean my brushes however I am not very convinced at the way it removes dirt, dust, and grime (Yuck!). After swirling for more than 10 minutes and leaving my brushes soaked in Parian Spirit, I can still see make-up residue when swiped on a clean white cloth. I had to wash my brushes again using shampoo to totally remove all stains.

Price and Placement: I bought mine from Suesh Store, but you can also get this from Nippon Esthetics Solutions. Ugh! I forgot how much I bought this. Tsk tsk! I have this shopping habit of buying something without remembering how much it costs. Bad, I know haha. At Nippon Esthetics Solutions you can purchase the same size at Php 650.00.

Let us see it in action! Ready? Go!
