Answer 1

Mixed Alcohol and room temperature water, Oil-Free Makeup remover works as well. Check out the MK website below

Answer 2

I wash my brushes in lukewarm water with baby shampoo.  I pour some shampoo in my hand and swirl the brushes around.  Then I rinse them, reshape them and lay them flat to dry.

Answer 4

i use just normal soap with warm water

shampoo can work too, but baby shampoo is better since is a lot more gentle.

or you can use a brush cleaner.

Answer 5

You can buy a specific brush cleaner (I like the one from Bare Escentuals) or you can use gentle shampoo to clean your brushes. Here's how I clean mine: I get a tall cup and fill it about 3/4 of the way full with warm water and mix in the cleaner (or shampoo). I then put in my brushes bristles down and let them soak for a couple of hours. Take the brushes out and gently rinse them in warm water until the water runs clear, then lay them flat to dry. Typically brushes should be washed every couple of weeks or so but I generally do mine every 4 to 5 weeks.
