Have u ever wonder whether your cosmetic product is safe or not? do you know that the cosmetics we used everyday can harm you if you are using it in wrong ways and the ingredients may also give bad effect to your health especially those who have sensitive skin. suprisingly, the most common injury from cosmetic is scratching the eye with a mascara wand! Eye infections can result if the eye scratches go untreated. Such infections can lead to ulcers on the cornea, loss of lashes, or even blindness.
so, here are some precaution steps when handling with makeup:
- Never try to apply mascara while riding in a car, bus, train or plane.
- Sharing makeup can also lead to serious problems. Cosmetics become contaminated with bacteria the brush or applicator sponge picks up from the skin--and if you moisten brushes with saliva, the problem is much more severe.
- Washing your hands before using makeup will help prevent exposing the makeup to bacteria.
- Sleeping while wearing eye makeup can cause problems, too. If mascara flakes into your eyes while you sleep, you might awaken with itching, bloodshot eyes, and possibly infections or eye scratches. To avoid eye infections or injury, remove all makeup before going to bed.
- Keep makeup containers closed tight when not in use.
- Keep makeup out of the sunlight to avoid destroying the preservatives.
- Don't use eye cosmetics if you have an eye infection such as conjunctivitis(pink eye), and throw away any makeup you were using when you first discovered the infection.
- Never add any liquid to a product unless the instructions tell you to.
- Throw away any makeup if the color changes or an odor develops.Preservatives can degrade over time and may not be able to fight bacteria.
