Makeup brush & sponge cleaning

The Brush Spring

A regular refresh for the tools that touch your skin every day. Drop your brushes and sponges with us and we’ll wash, sanitise and dry them properly, ready for you to collect.

Why it matters

Clean brushes, happier skin.

Every time you use a brush or sponge it picks up makeup, oil, dust and dead skin. Left alone, that build-up sits on the bristles and goes straight back onto your face the next morning.

The Brush Spring is designed to be a habit, priced fairly so you can bring your everyday brushes back every few weeks. Save the bigger clean for when you want to bring the whole collection.

We clean with ISOCLEAN, a professional brush and sponge cleaner used by makeup artists and salons, after a thorough wash. Your tools are cleaned and sanitised; they are not sterilised.

  • WashA gentle wash with ISOCLEAN brush soap lifts the heavy build-up from the bristles, kept away from the metal collar.
  • SanitiseA fresh ISOCLEAN bath for every client’s set, so nobody else’s makeup touches your brushes.
  • ReshapeEach brush is reshaped by hand so the bristles dry in their proper form.
  • DryLaid flat or bristles-down overnight, so water never runs into the handle.
The path

How your spring clean works

Most cleans are drop-off and collect, because properly washed brushes need a night to dry.

  1. 1

    Book

    Choose your clean and tell us the brand of your brushes and what the bristles are made of, if you know.

  2. 2

    Drop off

    We count your brushes, note their condition with you and seal them in a clear, labelled bag.

  3. 3

    We clean

    Charlotte, our Lead Aesthetics Nurse, washes, sanitises and reshapes each one, then leaves them to dry overnight.

  4. 4

    Collect

    We message you when they’re ready, usually the next clinic day. Pro kits take up to 48 hours.

Before you book

Tell us about your brushes

A minute of detail at booking means we can treat each brush the right way.

The brand

Let us know the makes in your set, or tick “unknown”. Some brands use softer glues or delicate hair that need a gentler hand.

The bristles

Synthetic, natural hair (such as goat or squirrel), a mix, or not sure. Natural hair can dry out with repeated alcohol cleaning, so we adapt for it.

Their condition

Any shedding, wobbly collars or cracked handles. We check every brush with you at drop-off and record it on a condition sheet kept with your bag.

A note on older and delicate brushes. We take care with every brush. Brushes that are already shedding, loose in the collar, vintage, or made of natural hair are cleaned at your own risk for problems that come from their existing condition or materials, including details not shared at booking. This doesn’t affect our responsibility for our own care and workmanship. Full terms are given at booking.

Edge of the woods

Your questions

Brushes used for liquid and cream products benefit from cleaning every week or two. Many of our clients pair a quick clean at home with a Standard clean with us every few weeks, so build-up never has the chance to settle.
A proper wash leaves water in the bristles, and brushes need to dry overnight, flat or bristles-down, so water doesn’t loosen the glue in the collar. If your brushes are only lightly used, an Express sanitise can be done while you wait.
No. Your brushes are washed and then sanitised with ISOCLEAN, which removes makeup, oil, dust and dirt and helps reduce bacteria. Sterilisation is a different, clinical process that makeup brushes aren’t designed for.
Yes. Standard covers up to 20 items in total, including extras. Above that, or for a full kit bag or brush roll, book Pro: up to 30 items for £35, then £1 per item.
Sponges are cleaned with ISOCLEAN’s dedicated sponge cleaner. Makeup sponges do wear out, so we’ll let you know if one is past its best. Most need replacing every two to three months.
We’ll keep your brushes safely bagged and labelled. Please collect within 30 days; after that, uncollected items are handled as set out in our terms.
