How can i clean my makeup brushes?

I have nice new 'made from real hair' makeup brushes that i use with my mineral foundation. I'm nervous about washing them with something that could be damaging, ruin the texture, or cause me to break out (since i am very prone to acne). I also would like a home remedy if at all possible, something i might have in the house. altho, i would not be opposed to any suggestions on a good brand of brush cleanser if any of you know of one.

How can i clean my makeup brushes?

You can wash your makeup brushes in warm, soapy water, using an antibacterial soap, shampoo or a hand sanitizer. There are also special products for cleaning your makeup brushes. Lipstick brushes may need extra care because of the extra emollients in lip colors, which can make them sticky and hard to wash. Wash them with a gentle oil removing wash you may already use for your skin, and take your time, working out the lipstick from the brush bristles.

Shape brushes while wet and let them dry to preserve their smoothness. Lay them flat instead of standing them on end, or you will damage either the bristles or handle of the brush. Wash them gently, never scrubbing, or the hairs will start to come out. Follow any cleaning instructions that come with your makeup brushes in case they have special requirements. And if you can't make up your mind to commit to cleaning your brushes, you can always buy disposable sponge brushes and throw them away more frequently. Especially if you suffer from very oily skin or acne, make sure you're always using a clean makeup brush to minimize bacterial problems that may increase your skin trouble.
