There are so many causes for skin irritations and rashes. One among them is the use of the infected make up. Research and studies find that the most commonly used cosmetic and makeup items are germy.

The items that are used after the expiry period is harmful, it is better to throw away a mascara container that is half consumed than to pay a heavy medical bill using the spoilt eye liner.

One way of knowing that it is time to discard your makeup containers is to check the powder puff, if a lot of make of powder is sticking to it then throwing the powder cake or the puff (whichever is contaminated) is inevitable.

After a period of time; almost all make up items are bound to be germy, so make sure to keep replacing the brushes and sponges every ninety to one eighty days. Replacing the makeup items would be ideal.

Cleaning the lip paints used is easy. Use an alcohol based solution to do so. Immerse your lipstick container in the solution for five to ten seconds and then use. But if the lip paint has a different odor, then throw it away.

Another most important task would be to clean your make up kit as often as you can.

A germy makeup can affect your skin very badly so check the makeup items before using them. Perhaps, keeping your skin make free is the best way to avoid infection.

Understand; beauty care items are meant to be used and thrown away before the expiry date and not to grow old with you. Yet another precaution that would help is never to lend your makeup kit. Don’t leave your kit in the bathing areas.

In short, use fresh and new cosmetics and applying tools every three to six months to protect your face.
