Gel eyeliner brushes - do you wash yours after every use?

I have just discovered gel eyeliner. I tried a No 7 one years ago, thought it was shite and never bothered with it. Just bought another one and think IT IS THE BEST EVER, better line than liquid eyeliner, felt pens or kohl.

But it's a pain in the arse washing the brush out afterwards, if I don't do that the thing solidifies up and it feels like I am putting on eyeliner with a cocktail stick when I next use it.

Am I doing something wrong? Or shall I try another gel eyeliner (the one I have is maybelline, amazingly soemthing from them which is actually good).

I find I have to use a wipe for my gel liner brushes after almost every use, but I do try to wash my brushes after five or so uses each anyway.

I use a BB gel liner and flipping love it! Never tried a MAC fluidline tbh, and the other cheap gel liners I've tried have been naff and dried up very quickly (Sleek, No.7 and ELF).
