DaisoDetergent Cleaning for Markup Puff and Sponge 80ml

This cleans makeup sponges so thoroughly – I really love it! Highly recommended!

So this came up when I was searching for the best makeup sponge cleanser. I'd never heard of it before, but the pink bottle drew me in, so I bought it. Best sponge cleaner ever. It can get your sponges 100% clean. It got foundation stains out that I thought were permanent. I've tried everything from baby shampoo to dish soap, random amazon brands, all the way up to various brands from sephora (including sephora store brand, beauty blender, and cinema secrets). This one is the best by far! I haven't tried it on my brushes yet but even if I could only use this on my sponges, it would be worth it.

I've been using this stuff for years and it's the soap I swear by for removing cream products such as foundation, concealer, gel eyeliner and cream eyeshadows from my brushes. I love it because it's so powerful and cheap! It's the only soap out there, aside from the $20 beauty blender solid, that 100% removes all traces of the most stubborn cream products with very little effort and leaves your brushes looking as new. It can dry out natural bristles, however, so I only use this on synthetic brushes and sponges. I also do not waste a drop on brushes that have powder in them because Dr Bonner's, Zote Soap, or any gentle soap for that matter works just fine at removing powder from any natural or synthetic brush (the gentler the soap the better with natural fibers). The smallest bit goes a long way. For sponges, I dilute about ten drops of soap in about a cup or two of warm water, drop the makeup sponges in the soapy water, let them absorb and soak in the Daiso bath for a while, then I go back and squeeze all the foundation out and rinse away. This way you're not using more than you actually need. The amount you get is 80 ml per bottle. For people who think you're getting less than advertised, you are not. The bottle just happens to be larger than what 80 ml of liquid can fill, but I have actually dumped the Daiso detergent into a measuring cup that measures milliliters and what do you know? 80 ml exactly! So don't be disappointed when you see the bottle isn't full! I guarantee if you actually measure like I did you will see you are getting exactly what is claimed on the bottle! Enjoy being amazed by the awesomeness of this product!!

My nice Sephora brush #56 got all gunked up with Benefit liquid to powder bb cream (which literally turns into a dusty paste if it gets up in the middle of the brush). It was pretty much impossible to get clean, because every brush cleaner I used only got the stuff on the outer parts.I read some good reviews of this brush cleaner and figured I would try it since it was cheaper (listed at $5.22) than any of the overpriced Sephora brush cleaners. I put a few drops of this in a small glass and diluted it with water. After swishing my brush around in it for about 30 seconds, the water was completely foundation colored. I had soaked the brush in a different cleaner until the water stayed clear earlier in the day, so I was pretty impressed by how much leftover makeup came out of the brush.My brush was almost completely white when I rinsed it off and even the inner middle part of the brush was perfectly clean. There was no trace of cream or powder left on the brush and it looked almost new. The only part that still looked like it had makeup on it was oddly the very end tip of the brush, but it didn't feel like there was actually any product left behind, just that the color has stained. I could probably get the brush whiter if I soaked it more, but I'm hesitant to test that on one of my good brushes. Also I am a little bit worried about what chemicals are in this to make it clean so well.

This stuff is amazing! I have been wearing Revlon Colorstay for about 12 years now, and I must tell you, this is the cleanest I have ever been able to get my foundation brushes. I just used 10 drops of the cleanser in about 1/4 cup of water, swirled my brush around, and it was clean! No using oil and cleanser, no raw hands, no oil and cleanser getting in to ferrule of the brush loosening the glue causing you to lose hairs! I did take off one star due to the fact the when I received my order (I ordered 3 bottles) all 3 bottles were 3/4 full. Even with the bottles not being totally full, this cleanser is totally worth it. I hated cleaning my foundation brushes because Colorstay is so difficult to remove, but with this, I am looking forward to cleaning them!

I read a few makeup blogs that recommended this product to get out tough brush stains, and this didn't disappoint! It's a pretty small bottle, but you don't need very much to work. Most people recommend that you dilute it about a 1/2 teaspoon of makeup cleaner to 1/2 cup of water because it's so strong, and I use just a couple of undiluted drops directly to BeautyBlender type sponges. Just swirl your brushes in the diluted solution for about 10 seconds (yes, that's really all it takes! Told you it was awesome!) and always rinse out your brushes directly after until the water runs clear. It says it's odorless, but I find it has just a slight chemical smell, so I wash out the last of the cleaner with some light shampoo (like baby shampoo), rinse a second time, use a light conditioner (like baby conditioner), and rinse out a third and final time. Leave your brushes out to dry, angled slightly so that the water runs out of the brush bristles and not up into the handle where it can mess with the binding agents that hold the bristles in place. It sounds a bit involved, but it really only takes a few minutes, and your brushes will turn out cleaner than you ever thought they could be again, and gloriously soft! I cannot recommend this product enough, and it's worth the price and the wait!
