Taking care of your makeup kit is critical to extend the life of your products and ensure they're always ready to use. Here are some tips for maintaining your makeup kit:
Clean Your Brushes Regularly: Use a gentle brush cleaner or a mixture of mild soap and water to clean your brushes at least once a week.Using a silicone makeup brush cleaner mat is also a great tool to clean brushes. Let them air dry completely before using them again.
Sharpen Your Pencils: Keep your eyeliners and lip liners sharp and free of bacteria by using a clean sharpener and alcohol.
Check Expiration Dates: Makeup products can harbor bacteria after their expiration date. Keep track of when you open new products and discard them according to their shelf life:
● Mascara: 3-6 months
● Foundation: 6-12 months
● Lipstick: 1-2 years
● Eyeshadow: 1-2 years
Store Properly: Keep your makeup in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Use a makeup organizer to keep your products neatly stored and easy to access.
Avoid Sharing: To prevent the spread of bacteria and infection, avoid sharing your makeup with others.
The risk of not maintaining your makeup kit could include cross contamination, bacteria growth, poor performance, unpleasant odor and waste of money.
Keeping your makeup kit in good condition ensures your products last longer and maintain their quality, while also keeping your skin healthy and your makeup looking its best.
