Serious injury from makeup is a rare occurrence, according to John Bailey, director of FDA’s Office of Cosmetics and Colors. But it does happen. Good common sense and a few precautions can help consumers protect themselves against hazards associated with the misuse of cosmetics.

* Never drive and apply makeup. Not only does it make for dangerous driving, but hitting a bump in the road and scratching your eyeball can cause bacteria to contaminate the cut and could result in serious injury, including blindness.
* Never share makeup. Always use a new disposable applicator when sampling products at a cosmetics counter. Insist that salespersons clean container openings with alcohol before applying their contents to your skin.
* Never add liquid to a product to bring back its original consistency. Adding other liquids could introduce bacteria that can easily grow out of control.
* Stop using any product that causes an allergic reaction.
* Throw away makeup if the color changes or an odor develops. Preservatives degrade over time and may no longer be able to fight bacteria.
* Do not use eye makeup if you have an eye infection. Throw away all products you were using when you discovered the infection.
* Keep makeup out of sunlight. Light and heat can degrade preservatives.
* Keep makeup containers tightly closed when not in use.
* Never use aerosol beauty products near heat or while smoking because they can ignite. Hairsprays and powders may cause lung damage if inhaled regularly.

Safety Tips for Beauty

* Follow directions on the label carefully, including all “Cautions” and “Warnings.” I know this to my great chagrin. I dyed my hair and because the previous time I did not develop am allergic reaction I did not do the test (as asked for in the instruction caution). I ended up having a face like Quasimodo’s for about a week.
* Keep makeup closed tight and in a dark cool place when not in use.
* Wash your hands before you put on makeup.
* Do not put on makeup while you are driving.
* Do not share makeup with anyone else.
* Do not add liquid to makeup.
* Stop using a product immediately if you get a rash or other problem where you are using it.
* Throw away makeup if the color changes.
* Throw away makeup if it gets an odor.
* Be extra careful not to keep mascara too long. Some companies say three months is long enough.
* Do not use eye makeup if you have an eye infection. Throw away eye makeup you were using when you got the infection.
* Keep makeup out of the sun.
* Do not use spray cans while you are smoking or near a source of heat. It could also cause a fire.
* By the way understand that smoking gives you wrinkles faster than anything (other than burning in the sun) and makes both men and women impotent, stinky and basically is the greatest turn off. So be safe, and do not smoke!
