Short answer

Extend the palette's collapsible grip and slip it between your fingers, add warm water and a brush cleanser to the top, then swirl the brush over the silicone ridges until all the product is out of the bristles. Rinse, squeeze out the excess water and lay the brush flat to dry. Real Techniques includes two Miracle Deep Cleansing Gel samples with the palette.

At a glance

Best for

  • Washing makeup brushes by hand with a brush shampoo or cleansing gel
  • Anyone building out Real Techniques' Cleanse + Extend range of brush-care tools

Skip it if

  • You need the cleanser itself: this is a silicone cleaning palette, not a cleaning solution

What we like

  • Silicone ridges that Real Techniques says work cleanser into the bristles for a deeper clean
  • Real Techniques says it is 100% vegan and cruelty-free
  • The palette itself cleans with soap and warm water, then dries flat

Good to know

  • The palette does not hold any cleanser of its own: Real Techniques' steps have you add warm water and a brush shampoo or cleansing gel each time

How the palette does the work

Ridges that work the cleanser in

Real Techniques says the palette's performance grade silicone ridges provide a deeper clean by working cleanser into the brush bristles quicker.

A grip that stays put

The collapsible grip extends so you can slip the palette between your fingers, which Real Techniques says gives easy control as you clean.

Cleanser to start with

Two samples of Real Techniques Miracle Deep Cleansing Gel come with the palette, each 0.25 fl oz (7.39 ml), and the maker's how-to says to use the palette with that gel.

Why clean brushes at all

Real Techniques says deep cleaning your brushes extends the life of your tools and helps your makeup application, summed up in its line: clean tools blend better.

How to use it

  1. Extend the collapsible grip and slip the palette between your fingers.
  2. Add warm water and cleansing gel (or makeup brush shampoo) to the top of the palette.
  3. Swirl the brush over the surface until all the product is removed from the bristles.
  4. Rinse thoroughly and squeeze out the excess water.
  5. Lay the brush flat to dry.
