I've been face painting since 2005. The Silly Farm Brush bath has been a game changer for me, personally. It smells nice, I've NEVER had anyone have an allergic reaction to it. A little bit goes a long, LONG way, and it knocks all the color off your brushes and drags it down to the bottom of your wash bucket. I use it to sanitize my sponges before every gig, too. It helps get the color out of them like magic. It's fast and works really well. I can't recommend it enough. If These lovely folks don't have it, check with Silly Farm because you might be able to get it there. 100 out of 10 HIGHLY recommend
