Let's face it...makeup gets dirty too!

Posted on Aug 15th 2007 9:00AM by Bethany Sanders
Makeup is supposed to accentuate beauty, but if you don't practice good product hygiene, it could end up making you look worse. Cold sores, rashes, and other unsightly bumps are just a few of the consequences of makeup gone bad. Here are a few rules for keeping makeup safe, including:
  1. Friends don't let friends share makeup (or germs).
  2. Out with the old, expired make up, in with the new.
  3. Replace applicators frequently to get rid of freeloading bacteria.
  4. Never thin clumpy make up with saliva or water.
  5. Cars are for driving, not for applying makeup and possibly scratching your eyeball.
  6. Put a lid on it, and keep make up sealed tightly.
  7. Natural makeups may not contain preservatives; check expiration dates!
  8. Go to bed with a clean face.
