When to throw out your makeup brushes and sponges?

Makeup brushes tend to last longer the better you take care of them, but since different brushes have different levels of quality, they should be replaced every three to five years, according to It Cosmetics.

Elle Australia reported that the best way to maintain your makeup brushes is to do a regular cleanse of your brushes and sponges every week.

According to Allure, to clean your makeup brushes and sponges, you should:

• Get the bristles of the brush wet with lukewarm water.
• Drop a pea size amount of cleanser (of your choice) into the palm of your hand or makeup cleaning silicone surface.
• Massage the bristles gently into your palm or the silicone surface to clean makeup off.
• Rinse the bristles through and squeeze out the excess water gently with a clean towel.
• Set the brushes out to dry by hanging them off the edge of the counter so the bristles dry in the right direction.

'I recommend washing makeup brushes at least every two weeks or more if you start to see that there is any makeup visible on the brush,' board-certified dermatologist Loretta Ciraldo said.
