Best makeup brush cleaner on the market
I cannot recommend Cinema Secrets Makeup Brush Cleaner enough! This stuff works insanely well with minimal effort, making brush cleaning an absolute breeze. It used to feel like such a chore, but now, it's so quick and easy that I actually clean my brushes regularly—and they’ve never been cleaner! The process is simple: just dip your brush into the solution, let it sit for a moment, then wipe it on a paper towel. Within a few swipes, even the most stubborn makeup is completely gone. It even removes waterproof products, which are usually impossible to get out. No scrubbing, no rinsing—just clean brushes in seconds! One of the best parts is that not only are my brushes instantly clean, but they also dry super quickly. Normally, when I wash my brushes with other cleansers I have to rinse them with water, leaving the brushes soaking wet, which requires me to let them dry overnight. With this cleaner, I can clean my brushes, let them sit while I do my skincare or get dressed, and within 10 minutes or so, they’re nearly dry and ready to use! One thing to note is that it does take a fair amount of solution, especially for larger brushes, since they soak it up quickly. I purchased the 16 oz bottle, which is the second largest size they sell, and have been able to clean my brushes about 4 times so far and feel like I can get another 2-3 out of the bottle. The bottle lasts a decent amount of time, also considering that I have a ridiculous number of makeup brushes, especially large ones. For me, it’s worth every penny to know I’m applying makeup with brushes that are actually clean, not full of bacteria. I’ve really been focusing more on my skincare routine, and using dirty brushes totally contradicts that effort—so this cleaner has been a game changer. In addition to how great they clean, the cleanser makes my brushes so soft after using it and the scent is amazing! Instead of smelling like harsh chemicals, it has a nice vanilla fragrance that makes the whole process even more pleasant. If you want something that works effortlessly and keeps your brushes in top shape, this is 100% worth it!

A must for professional artist!
My tried and true! Cleans brushes really well, has a light but great smell. No skin irritation after use and love and a must that it dries quickly! I am a professional wedding makeup artist and the turn around time between weddings can be tight so it is great for sanitizing and quickly getting back to work! It's blue but doesn't leave brushes blue ;)

I would get it
This product is easy to use. I love to use it when my brushes need to clean quickly in between uses. It dries extremely fast and cleans well. If you are sensitive to smell or get skin irritation from fragrance, this product does have a vanilla after smell that is left on the brushes. This is my second time repurchasing.

Great Product!! Works amazing and quick!!
Works absolutely great! I was able to clean my brushes in 5-10 minutes with this product, and it dried very quickly. This saved me so much time, as I didn't have to wait for the brushes to dry when washing with water and soap. It also has a nice aroma. Make sure not to use too much, and only dip your brush 1/4 of the way in because it absorbs it fast and really well. When this runs out, I will definitely be purchasing again!!

Highly recommend. Very effective cleaner
What an incredible cleaner for make up brushes. Very effective. Brushes came clean without much effort. Dried quickly. I don’t know how this magic potion works. But WOW! It’s a little pricey, but it didn’t take a lot of product to clean my brushes. (Can’t remember the last time I cleaned them) It also has a nice, mold scent.

Smell is awful, but works 💪
If you can get past the smell to use it, you'll see the product is amazing. Does what it says. I did rinse all my brushes after though was scared of the residue from the harsh smell of the product.

Excellent brush cleaner with pleasant vanilla scent
This makeup brush cleaner is amazing! The vanilla scent is lovely and not overpowering. It cleans my brushes thoroughly and quickly, removing even stubborn makeup residue. The professional formula is gentle on brush bristles but tough on dirt and bacteria. My brushes feel soft and look brand new after each cleaning. Highly recommend for anyone who uses makeup brushes regularly!

This is awesome!
I’ve known about this product for a while. But it was always explained as a quick on-the-go makeup artist type product for quick cleans. I clean my brushes daily. But I saw it being used online and I thought I’d give it a try. It’s awesome. The photo is only an after picture of my body blending brush but body makeup is waterproof and real thick and creamy. Although I soaked the brush in warm water with dawn soap (which is supposed to gut grease!) it still had this matted surface. I stuck the brush in the Cinema Secretes cleaner and the product film just melts away. I use this on my foundation brushes as well as brushes where I use real thick products that don’t come off easily. It’s such a game changer. I heard that it’s not supposed to be the only way you clean your brushes. It’s for a quick clean. I still use my regular cleaning method with soap and water for my brushes but every few days I use this to get the caked on makeup off. And not only that, it makes your brushes feel like brand new! I will be purchasing this forever. The smell is atrocious lol but I think for a powerful cleaner it’s gonna smell very alcohol-y. I don’t even know if the scent could be altered, it just is what it is. I highly recommend this.

The smell is a bit off putting but it definitely gets the job done between washes. The smell doesn’t linger after using. As with any brush cleaner it’s most effective on brushes used for powders. It’s so-so with liquid makeup, not so great with creams/wax based products. That applies to every brush cleaner I’ve used so I don’t consider it a strike against the product. Will absolutely keep on hand at all times.

Great for on set makeup artists! Ben Nye had one but it was discontinued years ago. This is amazing. Dip in solvent and blot gently to clean bristles, then shake it out to dry it thoroughly. Must have for kit!!

This brush cleaner is by far the best on the market, it’s a little bit pricey but it’s absolutely worth it. I used to work as a makeup artist and I’ve used so many different brush cleaners over the years. This brush cleaner works very quickly, cleans brushes thoroughly (as thoroughly as washing with soap and a brush shampoo), it dries incredibly quickly, and it smells great. This is a cult classic for a very good reason.
