Becca Brush Soap and where to get it!

After reading Pink Sith's review of this brush soap, I knew I had to have it. I HATE cleaning my brushes! It takes so long  to do and then you have to wait for them to dry and just bleeeergh no thankyou. Consequently I hardly ever clean my brushes (bad, I know!)

This isn't a review so much as it is a heads-up that A) this stuff is amazing and totally does what it says it does, and B) it retails for $15 USD on Becca's website but I found somewhere you can get it cheaper.

See, Becca's Brush Soap is actually $18 AUSD just about anywhere you can get it where it will ship to Australia. I found a place selling it for $14 AUSD. I was skeptical about the legitimacy of the place and whether or not they would actually ship in a timely fashion, but after receiving my order within the week of placing it, I was quite impressed.


I had an attack of Lonely Cart Syndrome and grabbed the BeautyPro Eyebrow Brush. BAD IDEA. This has to be the scratchiest makeup brush I've ever encountered in my entire life. It's actually horrible. I thought about using it for manicure clean-up or even nail art instead, but the bristles are so splayed it would only create a mess and with the bristle stiffness, you'd have to use it on completely dry polish or else it would create dents.




Verdict? Get the Becca Brush Soap. If you have an interest in any of their other products (which are discounted by Aussie standards but still a lot more expensive than you can find online) then go forth and spend money, but for now I'd avoid the BeautyPro brushes. Unless you like poking your eye out.

  1. That brush looks *terrible*, I'm so sorry! I also read Pink Sith's review and was sorely tempted to buy that soap, but right now I'm using (and liking) Burt's Bees Honey & Shea Body Bar (which I got after reading Karen from MBB's review!). Even though I have it sitting by my sink, just begging to be used, I still have a terrible time convincing myself that washing my brushes is a worthwhile use of my time, sigh.

    1. It's so hard to convince yourself to do, isn't it? That's one of the reasons why I love this brush soap so much, it makes it SO quick and easy to do!

  2. Looks like a neat product! I'm pretty bad for brush cleaning as well!

    1. It is really good. The hardness of it makes me think it'll last a while as well!

  3. I was a little confused by the blog... where is the place that you bought the soap? The BECCA website has been saying for the longest time that they don't have any on stock. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    1. Sorry, it wasn't very clear, was it? x.x I got the soap from the same place I got the crappy brush, ry.com.au. Here's a link straight to the soap http://www.ry.com.au/becca-professional-brush-soap.html

      Sorry about the confusion!
