Posted by a user (hey_im_allison) in the /r/MakeupAddiction subreddit, the Redditor revealed her own technique of drying her makeup tools and the possible way to make the drying quick. With the pictures, the Reddit user explained that she uses “hair ties to fasten [her] brushes to a bar for quick drying.” She also added a fan underneath to make the drying process faster but when other users saw it, they were enamored that the technique is the best way to dry your brushes, at the same time commented that adding a fan was unnecessary.  

“While I’m washing them I set them down on a towel while I finish washing the others, then I take the time to hang them!” the Redditor user explains. A commenter (sables1) adds, “I give mine several good shakes in the shower to expel excess water before hanging them up. They never drip.”
