The patent-pending Artis Premier Brush Cleaning Pad is the modern approach to cleaning makeup brushes. The special plush antimicrobial-treated Microfibre Cloth has approximately one million fibres per square inch, which help gently grab and remove makeup product residue from the brush fibres without causing damage to the brush fibre itself. The microfibre cloth is treated to create an antimicrobial environment to help keep your brushes fresh. The chrome plated lid and base of the unit is a rigid metal frame with magnetic closure which helps hold the cloth platform in place so that the user can simply stroke/wipe the brushes across the surface of the cloth to clean and freshen. Consider cleaning your brushes daily, or weekly, and replace the microfiber cloth with an appropriate frequency. Imported.
