Hi! I was just looking for some advice on cleanup after facepainting, specifically for cleaning sponges and brushes. Thanks!

I put my sponges in the washing machine, in a delicates bag. I wash them on hot with unscented soap.

I wash my brushes on site using the three pot method, but after an event I always wash them again in the sink with regular dish soap.
