Abstract: The cosmetic brush dryer comprises a base unit, a water pan, a drain panel, one or more brush stands, and a top cover. The cosmetic brush dryer may dry one or more cosmetic brushes. As a non-limiting example, the one or more cosmetic brushes may be wet after being used and cleaned. An air moving device in the base unit may blow air through a heating element and the warm air produced may circulate around the one or more cosmetic brushes within the top cover. Water dripping from the one or more cosmetic brushes may pass through the drain panel and may be collected in the water pan. An electrical timer in the base unit may energize the air moving device and the heating element for a predetermined time interval.
