Glow by Lady E

  This little flower came home with me from Baguio — and I have to say, this Miniso brush mat is officially a game-changer in my makeup routine. 🌸 Why I love it: Compact and travel-friendly, it fits into any pouch or case, making it perfect for trips. But don’t let the size fool you — it deep-cleans like a pro. It works better than my big brush cleaning mat. The right 3 petals are designed for big brushes, while the left 2 work wonders on smaller ones. And that maze looking center? That’s my go-to for rinsing. It lifts foundation buildup from deep within the bristles without much effort. It stays put on the sink thanks to the suction cups underneath — no slipping or sliding while I’m cleaning my brushes! ✨ Toolbox rating: 10/10 Miniso continues to impress with affordable, functional beauty tools. I already love their sponges and brushes — this mat just sealed the deal. I will definitely buy another one when I see this at Miniso.  I wash my brushes with this brand of dish soap...

I just swiped it on the bar a few times and voila: Some of the makeup transferred to the bar. This was still dry. When the brush was wet, it was a different story. It became clean instantly. It’s also very easy to rinse compared to the shampoo method. I was also surprised that Ivory was able to get rid of the deep- seated makeup in some of my brushes i.e. concealer brush, eyeliner brush, etc. It’s been a while since I saw them that clean. No matter how much shampoo I apply and how much I swirl them, I just couldn’t make them that clean before. Try t...
