Time to brush up on a few make up guidelines. ✨ Did you know your... 🖌️ Mascara should be replaced every 3 months. With daily use air compromises the integrity of your product, drying out mascara resulting in oils to oxidize. Micro organisms can become trapped and flourish in a damp, dark environment. 🖌️ Lipsticks & glosses should be replaced every 6 months. Natural oils can become rancid and with daily use dead skin cells can get trapped in tubs. A pro tip is to watch for colour changes or a distinct change in smell. 🖌️ Cream based products should be replaced every 9 months. Again, microorganisms love creamy products and will flourish. 🖌️Brushes used for cream and liquid based products should be washed once a week. A brush shampoo ensures that the integrity of your brushes are maintained. Always ensure that brushes are dried flat and in a well ventilated area.... Remember, microorganisms love a damp, dark and moist environment. 🖌️ Brushes used with powder based products should be wash once every two weeks, unless you struggle with breakouts. If you struggle with problematic skin wash your brushes once a week. Again, it is important to use a brush shampoo as it is gentle on brush fibres and free from harsh chemicals that may irritate your skin. Is it time to replace a few of your daily essentials?
