Using Dirty Makeup Brushes and Old Makeup

Even though they might still work efficiently, aged makeup brushes and makeup products can infect skin and lead to breakouts. Allure.com suggests washing brushes every three weeks by cleansing them with gentle shampoo, thoroughly rinsing them and allowing overnight dry time. A deep disinfecting rids makeup brushes of buildup and germs that can irritate one’s complexion. Aged makeup products can also carry bacteria so it is important to replace them. It is suggested to get rid of mascara after three months, lip products after one to two years, eyeliner after 18 months, eye shadows after one to two years, and foundation, concealer and blush after one to two years.
