- Apply eyeliner outside the lash line (away from the eye) to avoid direct contact of the cosmetic with the eye. There also will be less chance that the liner will flake off into the eye.
- Replace cosmetics every six months (more often if you wear contact lenses) to avoid excess contamination with skin bacteria.
- Never use an old applicator in a fresh cosmetic product. The applicator will transfer bacteria to the new cosmetic
- After any eye infection, such as conjunctivitis, buy fresh eye makeup.
