What is the best way to clean these brushes

Soak in acetone (or similar polish remover) for a minute or so. Rinse with water or wipe with a wet wipe and allow for them to air dry. Do it in a glass dish or similar (I use a shot glass) because acetone can ruin plastics. Also be careful not to fill acetone past the metal part because it will ruin the white paint on the brushes (found out the hard way)

Go to youtube and enter "How to clean nail polish brushes" It is very simple. I'd just make sure you do it right after using to make it easier to get the nail polish out. Once it sets up you will have a little more work to do.

Here's how I clean mine: I always soak a cotton ball or a makeup pad with nail polish remover and stroke it with the tip of the brush until all the nail polish has come out of the brush, and then rinse the brush with water. Works the best out of anything else I've tried.

If u are using acylic paint dip it in water it will come right out!! If ur using nail polish . First dip in polish remover n then place a DECENT DROP OF CLEAR POLISH on a paper plate n swish the brush around and u will start to see the color come right out. Depending on how mich polish is on the brush it could take a couple of drops of clear , once the color seems to be done run brush in nail polish remover TO REMOVE THE CLEAR POLISH N U SHOULD BE GOOD.

I don't know if I will be much help because I didn't purchase these to paint on nails. I bought them to use with acrylic paints and leather dyes. With those I just use cold water. I would imagine that using them on nails you would use nail polish remover. I'm sorry that I can't be of more help to you.

I would just put a couple of drops of dishwashing liquid in the palm of my hand and squish the brush back and forth on both sides getting a good lather, then give it a good rinse.

I use my brushes for nail art with nail polishes, so I use a small amount of polish remover. I dab them on a gauze pad. Do not soak the brushes in remover!

I got the started set over 2 years ago, I use them all the time and they still look brand new. Maybe your brushes are not original... Sorry :(

There's a screw in the middle of the plastic tip, so I'm guessing you can remove that and slide out the rows of the brush for cleaning. It's very easy to clean just leaving it intact, though. As for the hardness of the bristles, they are mostly rigid but have a little bend when forced.

I have not had to replace the brushes as yet. I would think Amazon would sell the proper brushes.

Here is my tutorial on brush washing. It can be done multiple ways with various products. This is my way.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IApdwMXuMFk&index;=3&list;=PLpwn4HrFm1pEKnLOVxlvQTaBV53uKKYGf

the best way to clean it is maybe a lent brush if you have animals or a shampooer with attachments.

When you wash these kinds of things, you should be very gentle and use either brush cleaner or a mild antibacterial hand soap. I haven't had any problems, and I think they're just as good as the $10 ones at the store.

For the various attachments I have just used Soft Soap and water, and a toothbrush with soft bristles. For the actual device. I just use a damp cloth where needed. The device usually does not get very dirty.

I just scrub them, then soak in bleach water. Then a soak in regular water.

Use the remover solution instructions to clean the brushes. After your next application, make sure the bottles/containers lids are twisted on tightly to avoid drying. Keep bushes, solutions, and polishes far away from the LED light. Repeat as necessary.

They probably need to be taken off and cleaned. Sometimes hair and fuzz, etc get wrapped around the brushes which makes it difficult for them to turn.

I clean all my "good" brushes the same way. Using tepid water, I swirl it in a mix of liquid dish soap, like Dawn and water. Not a LOT of soap, just enough to make it really sudsy. If the dried makeup doesn't come out, go ahead and rub some concentrated Dawn right on the bristles. It doesn't hurt the brush at all. Rinse it really well and lay flat to dry. It fluffs right up again and doesn't lose any hair from being washed. If you use hot water, you could compromise the glue, so keep it warm and don't baby it! You can use shampoo too, but dish soap works faster and better. Good luck. I love the brush and hope you do too. I clean all my "good" brushes the same way.
