Ok, so why didn't I know about these? I for years have been the girl rubbing my brushes under water with my fingertips and getting nowhere, they would still be covered in makeup.

I was really surprised at how large this mat actually is and how many different grooves and patterns are on the surface, making the cleaning of my brushes quite simple. I started with my foundation brush which came clean within a minute or so, very easy to use.

I think that this is a very clever and inexpensive way to keep my brushes cleaner and therefore useable for longer. Cleaner brushes result in less breakouts and I also won't have to buy new brushes as often, fantastic idea! I ordered this from Amazon.ca and it cost $14.99.
