Tips. To preserve the properties and effect of these products, certain guidelines must be followed:
– Close them after use and keep them in their own container so that the quality is not spoiled. In this way, not only possible contamination with the air will be avoided, but also that the water they contain evaporates and that the product suffers alterations in its composition.
– Beauty products should not be stored in environments that expose them to the sun or humidity. The direct aggression of the sun can alter cosmetics, while humidity favors the proliferation of mold and bacteria. It is always convenient to keep them in a cool and dry place protected from light.
– It is necessary to sanitize your hands before handling cosmetics. Those products whose packaging is in a tube, bottle or dispenser are more suitable than pots, since it will avoid inserting fingers into the content, and with it not only the risk of contamination, but also the possibility of altering its characteristics.
– It is always better dispose of used cosmetics during illness, for example, eye makeup if you had conjunctivitis or lipsticks if there was an injury to the lips. This is a good way to avoid contagion.
