I use a spray I got from sephora. I spray the brush and then swipe in a tissue until no more color comes off.

I dont do it every week...more like when I remember. I am bad

YEA! Do you guys use Johnson and Johnson?? How long do you clean them before you buy new ones??

Definately J&J.... It depends on the quality of the brush. My good brushes I have had for years.....I have some brushes from Ulta that I have had for 8 months & I wil probably throw them out soon. When the bristles start to look like dead ends it is usually time to get rid of them.

When the stores have the extra-gentle or sesitive formuls of J&J I buy that. It smells less than the original.

Quite a while.... Bobbi Brown is a good quality product. I would say at least 2 years.
