Yea if you have decent, not cheap, brushes then they should last you for a while. But you have to remember to clean them!How often do you have to buy new make-up brushes?
Not often if you have nice/expensive good brushes if not probably more often than you'd like and it's prob. a good idea to invest in something more expensive and brush shampoo.





It depends on how rough you are with your brushes, how often you use it and what you use on the makeup brush. In most cases though as long as you washing them at least once a month or every other week they should last long. I've had mines for four years and they're still working fine. It's usually up to you and how they work on your face if it seems like it's not the way it used to be and not doing what you'd expect out of the brush then it's a good call to buy new brushes.

Haha, I never replace mine!! I don't think there is a cetain time. Obviously if the hairs are falling out, it's all clogged up and it's really gross than replace them. But if you keep the brushes clean (wash them out about once a month with shampoo) then it should be fine. If you look after then they should literally last all your life! :D
Well, as long as you clean them regularly and as long as you only put it in MAKEUP, and nothing else besides soap and water when you clean it. you can keep your brushes as long as you want. I've had some brushes for years, and it still works beautifully!
In my experience, brushes are fine for years. If you use them carefully and wash them, I see no need for replacements.


Though if you mean sponge applicators, those you should replace once the material shows wear and tear.
When they start to look old, dull and all frizzy lol. i have some of my first MAC brushes from when i was 14 and im now 19 and they still work amazing %26amp; are in pretty good condition. if you take good care of them and are gentle then they will last for years =)
i say about 3-4 yrs, it really depends if you bought a cheap one, like a drugstore one. or an actually nice brand. for instince, a mac brush can last abut 5-6 yrs. also you can always just wash your makeup brush with shampoo, and air dry it. :)
You don't have to replact them at all! You can keep them forever. Just make sure you wash them once a week.





Here's a great tutorial.

Unless they're broken, or they start to shed a lot, you need not replace them. Some brushes, when taken care of, will last a lifetime...but those are the good ones...like MAC etc...not your local ecotools or elf brushes.
till all the hair falls out lol.





long as you keep washing them..you can use them for as long as you like...i would probably buy new ones every 6-8 months. x
i replace it like every month and a half but it depends how often YOU use it(:

I DONT UNLESS THE BRISTLES DONT ALLOW YOU TO APPLY YOUR MAKEUP WELL ANYMORE.


JUST CLEAN THEN WITH SOAP AND LAY THEM ON THEIR SIDE TO DRY OUT! :)
yeah..i think the appropiate timing is once in a blue moon. at that time, replace it.
WHEN IT LOOKS GROSS
I've had most of my brushes for almost a year and they are still in great condition!
