The cleaning mat is designed for you to deep clean your makeup brushes in a fast and easy way. There's a total of 7 surfaces on the mat which 4 of them are for the main purpose to clean & deep clean your brushes. Underneath the mat to secure it from moving all around in the process of cleaning your brushes there is 10 suction cups all alongside the perimeter. I found it easier to wet the sink first then apply the mat to really secure the mat in the sink.

Place mat to fit in the up-right position in sink, Secure suction cups onto sink, Wet brush(es), WASH (Face or Eyes Side) – Add a small amount of cleaning solution and water to mat and swirl brush on ‘Wash’ texture to begin deep cleaning the brush(es), RINSE (Face or Eyes Side) – Place brush under running water and sweep brush back and forth on the ‘Rinse’ texture of the mat to remove makeup residue & soap, REFINE – Swirl brush on the ‘Refine’ texture of the mat for an added deep cleaning, RINSE (Face or Eyes Side) – Place brush under running water & sweep brush back and forth on the ‘Rinse’ texture for a final rinse, REFINE PLUS (Face or Eyes Side) – Repeat cleaning process for a deeper clean, RINSE (Face or Eyes Side) – Repeat rinsing process to remove excess makeup residue and soap, Gently squeeze brush head with your hand to remove excess water.
