Change when it itches
If your mascara tingles, it won’t get better over time. Ditto if your pencil causes redness or swelling. Then try another brand. Maybe you will endure it better.
Single doses, yes; wipes, no!
The products sold in single doses, in particular make-up removers, offer the advantage of not containing preservatives, because they are packaged sterile like drugs. They are therefore better supported by sensitive eyes. On the other hand, the wipes deposit a makeup remover on the eyelids that does not rinse, which increases the risk of intolerance.
In good order
If you wear contact lenses, it is best to put them on before applying makeup to avoid contaminating them. At the end of the day, remove them only after removing makeup.
Choose safe products
Choose a brand containing only ingredients recognized for their lack of reactivity and their complete harmlessness, such as La Roche Posay or Contapharm. And, preferably, stay faithful to it so as not to unnecessarily multiply the number of assets. This way, you will reduce the risk of allergic reaction.
Top hygiene
1. Maintain your equipment.
Regularly sharpen your kohl pencils and keep their leads safe under their cap. Do not keep an opened mascara for more than two months. Finally, do not try to extend its shelf life by diluting it with water.
2. Be selfish!
We share everything except germs! So no question of lending your mascara, eye shadows or pencils.
3. Wash your hands regularly.
Because we tend to wear them on the face without paying attention. Washing is not just about running your hands under water: you should also soap them generously for three minutes with real soap.
4. Make touch-ups.
With a cotton stick, soaked in a few drops of physiological serum.
