For tons of reasons, people wear makeup. but, if you're not careful, it may create issues with our skin. Your skin, eyes, or both will be irritated. Your skin can also ingest potentially harmful additives.

Here's some info to help keep your skin safe.

Expiration dates

Many cosmetics do not bear expiry dates and can linger in their unopened packaging for years. Depending on how much you wear them, how they are handled, how they are processed, and the type of makeup, how long cosmetics can be safe to use, and effective. Since they are exposed to more bacteria and fungi, cosmetics used by the skin, including mascara, have a shorter shelf period.

• Foundation: Liquid for six months; powder for two years;
• Mascara: Three months with mascara
• Eyeliner and eye shadow: Three months of liquid eyeliner; six months of cream eye shadow; two years of pencil liner and powdered shadow;
• Lipstick and lip liner: Lipstick and gloss, 2 years; lip liner, 2 years or more
• Nail polish: Two years
• Sunscreen: Six months
• Products for hair: One year
• Fragrance: Two or three years

You should bear in mind that expiry dates or use-by dates are just things to keep in mind in order to remain safe. If the products are not adequately packed, the consistency of such cosmetics, sunscreens, and acne creams will degrade faster.

 

Makeup degradation

Makeup degradation is a serious issue as it directly goes to your skin. There are many factors that degrade your makeup like exposing it to heat, moisture, and so on. 

Here are some things you should and shouldn't do to keep your makeup safe.

• Try not to use your fingers to apply makeup. Bacteria, mold, and yeast may be added to the bottle by using the fingers to add makeup. The best way to apply makeup is to use sponges, swabs, etc.
• Do not keep your mascara applicators open for a long time. Shut it as soon as possible after use.
• Do not store your makeup products in your car or bathroom or any place with extra humidity or heat. Also do not expose it to direct sunlight. That might alter its texture.
• Change your products timely. It depends on how much you use them, how they are packed, how they are kept and the type of makeup, how long cosmetics can stay safe to use, and successful.
• The cleanest is the make-up that comes with a pump so it can be dispensed into an applicator or onto the hand while still in the tube to cover the leftover substance.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF VACUUM CLEANERS AND THEIR FUNCTIONS

Believe it or not, gorgeous brows aren't only a result of hitting the genetic lottery. From the best techniques and weird remedies to life-saving tools, there are a lot of ways to get perfect eyebrows. We have compiled a list of 5 tips to keep your eyebrows perfect!

Brow Brush 

Brushes are used to mix makeup and keep hair in place for the eyebrows. You need them to build the precise brow look you like. A brow brush allows the product to be blended uniformly and the eyebrows to appear more natural. However, not all brushes are created equal, and which one you choose depends largely on the object you combine with it, and also personal taste, clearly.

 

Threading

A popular alternative to waxing or plucking is eyebrow threading. It is used to remove stray hair and give form to your eyebrows. Originating in the Middle East, it has recently become the most common hair removal procedure in the whole world.

Using two entwined pieces of cotton thread is part of the threading technique. They are wrapped in a quick and clean motion around the unwanted hairs, extracting them. It's a fluid motion that extracts hair from the root of the hair follicle expertly.

 

Eyebrow pencil

Eyebrow pencils are a favorite part of the makeup of every woman. A good forehead pencil will turn poor, scattered brows into complete, dense, and perfectly shaped arches with just a few flicks of a wrist. For someone who looks to revive their brow game, brow pencils are more natural than a gel and easier to use.

 

Castor Oil 

As a hair growth product, Castor oil makes an exceptionally compelling argument for itself. It is rich in essential fatty acids and vitamin E that are believed to stimulate hair growth and, respectively, restore damaged hair follicles. It also contains a variety of other hair and skin-beneficial vitamins and minerals. Ricinoleic acid, an element which has been said to boost blood supply, is another one of the star elements. It is certainly good for growth.

 

Tweezing

Although it takes more time to use tweezers than, say, waxing, you have more power over the hair you take and carry, which provides a very detailed look. It's also a very cheap choice for doing-it-yourself that can last for weeks at a time.

Bacterial infections are likely to grow and contaminate our skin if we do not take care of the brushes and sponges we use often as part of our makeup routine. Did you know, for instance, that dirty brushes can induce acne, close pores, and accumulate contaminants on the skin? 

So, here are a few tips for managing to safely use your beauty products. 

With brushes 

Makeup brushes collect millions of germs that can get dirty and infect the skin. That is why keeping them as smooth as possible is so crucial. Furthermore, with the same brush, you would not end up with a combination of colours. Ideally, after using them, you can clean them. If you do not have much time, at least every other week, do not forget to clean them. 

Depending on their attributes, makeup brushes should not be washed in the same way:

 

Natural hair brushes: primarily for powder coatings

With soapy water, rinse them and let them dry. When they are still damp, be careful not to put them in a vertical position, as their wooden wand might get broken. Once a month, you should also add a conditioner to your brushes, so that they stay flexible and smooth.

 

Brushes made from synthetic hair: for oleaginous items in particular

Wash it with such a solvent that is non-alcoholic. There are several leave-on cleaning methods, for instance, that can be added straight to your brush with a soft cloth.

Makeup sponges

Single-use sponges are the most hygienic. However, if you would rather use reusable sponges, do not forget to disinfect them with a bit of washing-up liquid and a drop of disinfecting alcohol. You can also clean them with baby lotion or micellar water. Leave the sponge to dry before putting it away or using it again.

 

Brushes for lipsticks and foundation

For those of you that apply lipstick with a brush, it is important to keep it clean. To disinfect it, use a damp cloth soaked with alcohol to give it a boost of radiance. No need to clean it too often: once a month should do.

 

Makeup bags

They contain all your most precious treasures, but they are often neglected when it comes to cleaning, while in fact, germs and bacteria contaminate your accessories every day. To solve this problem, clean yours completely on a regular basis (every 2 to 3 months) or just put it in the washing machine. In the meantime, refresh it with a face wipe.
