We learn some lessons the hard way.

Some weeks ago, we told you ladies about an amazing Beauty Blender cleaning hack that involved very little effort and spending hardly any money. The hack was simple: fill a cup with water and washing-up liquid and drop your dirty sponge in there. Pop it in the microwave for just one minute and hey presto – a good-as-new Beauty Blender. Sounds like the answer to our makeup sponge cleaning prayers right?

Put your dirty beauty blender in a cup with soap and water in the microwave on 1 minute ? thank me later ?

Well, yes, but only if you do it right. One girl who learned that lesson the hard way was Victoria who spotted the hack on Twitter and after reading all the praise for the simple solution decided to try it herself. However, she missed one vital step in the process and, well, you can see the upsetting results in the picture below.

“I’m deleting Twitter. I’m pissed. WTF,” read the caption on the unfortunate picture of Victoria’s melted Beauty Blender. What happened? Well, Victoria forgot to put it in the cup of water and soap with disastrous consequences.
