7 Tips for Eye Care Safety When Wearing Makeup
Wearing makeup is a fun thing for women to do. With the right use of mascara, eyeliner, some eye shadow, and lipstick, it can be a fun experience to magically transform yourself into a better version of yourself, or if you’re feeling like it that day, someone completely different! But with the fun of makeup, can come some nasty infections. Today we wanted to give some tips so you’d know how to protect your eyes while wearing your cosmetics.
Old Isn’t Better
When it comes to friends, it’s nice to have people you’ve known a while around. However, that’s not the case with makeup. Be sure that you are replacing your makeup products and not keeping them too long. Even if an eye shadow palette looks fine, if you’ve been using it for a long time, there is a chance that you could develop an infection using it. If it’s the mascara you like to use, be sure to replace it as soon as the tube begins to get dry. I recommend changing your makeup and buying new products at least every 6 months; if you can change it every 3 months, then that may be better.
Store in a Cool Place
Heat helps to breed infection. Because of this, I recommend storing your makeup at room temperature. If you tend to store your makeup inside a place that is not well regulated for temperature, try to at least store it in a cooler area. Different makeup may be more susceptible to infection and things like melting, so it’s always a good idea to check the label to see if there is any information regarding this.
Clean Your Products and Your Face
When you’re not replacing your cosmetics with new ones, you should at least be keeping them clean. Make sure to clean your makeup applicators and brushes on a regular basis.
At the end of the day, make sure to thoroughly remove your makeup and clean your face and eyes to prevent infection overnight. When choosing which eye makeup remover, read the labels carefully and try to pick one that is water-based and not oil-based. No matter how tired you are, remember that it’s important to take the time to properly remove your makeup before you go to sleep.
