Keep Your Makeup Bacteria Free

With worries about flu viruses living on objects now in the news, it is a good time to review some tips to keep your makeup bacteria free. The advice coming from medical professionals about how to avoid the flu is simple and straight forward, wash your hands, cover your mouth when sneezing or coughing, wash your hands, keep surfaces clean and don't forget to wash your hands.

The same advise about washing your hands also applies to washing your makeup brushes and makeup applicators. Using throw away applicators for your makeup is fine in some situations, but nothing beats using professional makeup brushes to apply certain makeup looks that you can just not achieve with disposable makeup applications products. Keeping your Makeup Kit clean is just as important as washing your hands during a flu epidemic. Be sure to put the lids on your makeup after using them, this is an easy start to insuring that your makeup will not become a petri dish for bacteria breeding.

Along with keeping your makeup containers properly sealed it is also very important to keep your Makeup Brushes clean and dry. If you are in the habit of washing your makeup brushes with soap and water as was recently recommended on the Tyra Banks Show, remember to dry them thoroughly before putting them away. Putting a wet or damp makeup brush in a makeup bag or drawer is an invitation for bacteria to grow. Applying Makeup with Makeup Brushes that have bacteria growth may cause rashes or acne along with other health issues. Although Tyra Banks is on the right track by recommending washing your Makeup Brushes with warm soapy water, that may not be enough to keep your makeup brushes deodorized and sanitized.
