Viruses and Disinfecting your Makeup Brushes with Parian Spirit

Levon Parian

Past studies have shown that ethanol-based disinfectants can be effective against Influenza A Virus (IAV), but as researchers noted, most tests using disinfectants were on dry substrate. For this study, they found that the disinfectant killed the virus within half a minute. Japanese researchers dabbed participants hands with IAV-infected wet substrate, finding that ethanol-based products didn’t kill the virus even when left in contact for two minutes. It took a total of four minutes for the virus to be deactivated, according to the study. So don't wet your brushes with water before disinfecting, it dilutes the disinfecting properties of Parian Spirit and requires a longer exposure time.

Clean, condition and disinfect your makeup brushes with Parian Spirit. For larger powder brushes use a spray to coat the brush so you don't effect the glue holding the bristles in the metal shaft of the fernelle. Look up parianspirit.com for more information.
