The present disclosure provides a method for preparing a porous antibacterial fiber brush. Fiber masterbatch made of ultra-fine reaming silica gel, silver-based antibacterial agent and other materials is melted, drawn, cut, polished and then dried to make the porous antibacterial fiber brush. A large number of micropores are distributed on the surface of the porous antibacterial fiber brush, which absorb cosmetic residues on the skin surface and tiny dirt in the pores, and realize efficient cleaning of the surface of human skin.
