Review (4/5): Works best as a mat; prone to staining/color fading
I've found that this glove works best as a mat. I lay it flat in the sink with the faucet on low, swirl my brushes in the Beauty Blender Cleanser solid cake, then rub them around on the various textures of the cleaning glove until the water rinses clear. It's a little tedious to try and wear it but using it as a mat works well. I've noticed some color fading (from the detergent in the cleanser cake?) and it stains somewhat easily. In the areas where I've cleaned brushes that had either black gel eyeliner or foundation on them, the glove is stained. Haven't tried using makeup remover on it but may give it a go. I do feel that it gets my brushes cleaner than my former approach of just swirling them in the palm of my hand with the cleanser cake soap, but I find that I really only use 1 or 2 of the textures on the whole glove. I don't see a need for either the 'Refine' or the 'Refine Plus' zones, but the textures on the linear 'Wash' and the 'Rinse' side are both effective. Really a gratuitous "uni-tasker" as Alton Brown says, but a neat addition to a makeup fanatic's accessory collection.
