Everything You Need to Know About Ophthalmologist-Tested Eye Makeup

Summary: Love wearing eye makeup? It might be causing your dry, red, or itchy eyes! Eye doctors say that everyday beauty habits, like putting eyeliner on your inner lash line, can easily clog your eye's oil glands. This leads to dry eyes and painful styes. Old makeup is also a major trap for bacteria.

To protect your peepers, switch to eye-safe, ophthalmologist-tested makeup. Avoid waterproof formulas and harsh chemicals. Most importantly, wash your makeup brushes every two weeks, always take your makeup off before bed, and throw away liquid eye makeup like mascara every three months.
