Using Eye Makeup Safety

 

Makeup can have quite a dramatic effect on your appearance, especially your eyes. However, it's important to take some precautions with makeup. Because it's so close to your eyes, germs and chemicals in makeup can cause serious infections, corneal injuries. Allergies and damage to contacts are also possibilities.

Here are some tips:

●        Most well-known brands ensure that their products are free from bacteria that could cause issues. They also may contain preservatives to prevent the growth of germs. Opt for brands with good reputations.

●        Always preserve your makeup properly.

●        Clean your brushes regularly.

●        Opt for disposable applicators, or clean them after each use.

●        Never share makeup with others.

●        Discard products that are past their expiration date.

●        Never apply eye makeup in a moving vehicle

●        Don't use sharp objects to separate your lashes!
