February 25, 2010 | Old lipsticks can discolour your lips forever |
London: If you are still using your discoloured lipstick
to add an extra shade of pink to your lips, think again - old and out-of-date make up can cause infection. Discoloured or smelly lipsticks, mascara and eye pencils can accumulate dangerous bacteria. Although all cosmetics come with a
best before date, a study by Debenhams found 89per cent of women did not know
that this information was available on beauty products' labels. More than two-thirds
of women only change products when they run out, while about three-quarters are
not in the habit of washing make-up sponges. "Women don't like throwing things
away but you have to remember it is probably no longer doing its job properly
and could well give you a nasty infection," the Daily Star quoted Ruth Attridge
from Debenhams, as saying. |
