How Michelle Phan cleans her brushes!

Michelle Phan made a video a little while ago on how she cleans her brushes:
What you will need:
Anti-Bacterial soap
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Brush Guards
A glass
A plate

How do do it:

Get your plate, and put some anti-bacterial soap and some of the extra virgin olive oil on the plate and swirl it around a little bit.
Get your brushes and sway them about in the mixture, rubbing it on the back of your hand so the makeup goes onto your hand.
Do this for every brush.
Go to your sink and rinse your brushes under cold or slightly warm water. Don't make the water very hpt because this can ruin your brushes.
Take your brushes and dry them down. Don't dry them standing up as this will cause the water to soak into the metal part of your brush and the glue will come UN-done, causing the hairs to fall out your perfectly good brushes.
After doing this for every brush, Take your brush guards and place these over the top of your brushes. This will keep the shape of them.
Now put your brushes in the glass all facing to the bottom of the glass with the brush guards on. Make sure they are pointing down the way, as gravity will pull all the extra moisture and water from the brushes into the glass, making sure that your brush has no water in  them at all.
When storing your brushes, again never point them facing your ceiling as this will take the dirt and all the horrible stuff that is floating in the air into your brushes then onto your face.
Cleaning your brush weekly (Daily for your foundation and blusher brushes) will take out all the germs and sebum trapped in them. After cleaning your brushes, you will also notice your brushes will make a massive difference to your makeup too.
