• Do you clean your brushes in between clients and what do you use?

"Yes. I clean the brushes in between clients the day of the event or I use different brushes on each person. In addition, once a week. I use a my shampoo & baking soda. Baking soda is a neutralizer & refreshes the bristles & kill any bacteria u carry from ur skin that can cause more skin break outs."

- Cathy 

"I clean my brushes in between every customer with 99% alcohol, and I clean after every event with London brush company's vegan solid brush shampoo" - Stephanie

Sensitive skin can be a pain but, with the right products and the right pro, your make up worries are a thing of the past. Check out some suggestions we also love for the skin to cleanse and moisturize.

1. Burt's Bees is always a winner when it comes to au natural! We love this product for facial cleansing before an event to ensure you won't have any breakouts. Check out their lip balms too!

2. Moisturize! Skin needs to be hydrated. For sensitive ladies, just be careful with using anything to heavy that may clog your pores.
