Sigma 2X Spa Brush Cleaning Glove - Pink | Professional Makeup Brush Cleaner for Deep Cleaning | Perfect for Home Salon & Travel Makeup Kit Care

Just so you know, I have seen the original version of this glove for awhile & have been extremely skeptical about how useful it could be. It looked silly to me even with one thumb, LOL! However, I am coming off of two arm and hand surgeries back to back (right & left ) & all my brushes were extremely dirty and I was dreading washing them like the plague. (I'm still recovering so my hands & arms are only at 80% strength) I ran across this new version & watched the video on Sigma's site and thought I would try it out because I really needed something to make this easier right now.I have many brushes including a bunch of big dense ones like the SigMax brushes. I loath the chore of washing my brushes. I do it less often than I should. My hands become prunes, I wreck my nails and it takes for-like-ever! Plus, I can never seem to get the big dense ones clean enough deep in the center no matter how long I stand there and try to wash them.Today I used this brush cleaning glove and HOLY FRIGGIN' MOLY!!! It's next level stuff!It was so EASY to DEEPLY clean all my brushes in a FRACTION of my normal time. My dense brushes have never been this clean. It was an actual pleasure to wash them! Never thought I would ever say that.Do not get an imitation. I saw those & thought about saving some money but in the end bought this glove. They really designed this to actually do all the work for you AND save your hands & nails. It is well thought out.All the different areas have a very useful purpose that do all the work. You need all the different areas. The area where you shape your brush at the end actually also squeezes out all the excess water from even those dense SigMax brushes. They felt 50% dry right after washing! I'm sure they will dry faster than ever. The terry inner glove made the whole silicone glove experience really nice and cozy. Your hand is comfortable all during the washing & after. None of that sweaty, sticky feeling you can get with rubber gloves. My hand was completely dry even after about 30 brushes!I like this new design, with the 2 thumbs, because you can always use your dominant hand to hold the brush. With one thumb you would have to switch hands to use the other side of the glove. One side is for face/larger brushes & the other is for eye/smaller brushes.I use Dr. Bronner's Castile Liquid Soap in the Baby Mild formula. Get yourself a pump dispenser & mix half soap and half water in the dispenser. Having the pump helps speed along the washing process as you just pump the soap onto the center cleaning area of the glove. You never have to put down the brush you are cleaning. This also helps keep the brush aimed down helping you not get water running up into the ferrule by accident as you work.This glove also makes it easy to know, just by sight, when your brush is completely clean, soap foam is white, and completely rinsed, no foam comes out of your brush when swirled after rinsing.My brushes are thoroughly deep cleaned for the first time in ages. They look brand new!If you have a bunch of brushes or even if you don't have that many but have some of the big dense ones, think of this glove as an investment. It will help you preserve the life of your brushes and keep bacteria off your face, yuck.It is really well made and should last a really long time. They only thing I could see happening is replacing the inner glove as it is terry cloth.I LOVE this and will happily be washing my brushes all the time now. My face, hands & nails are all going to benefit.
