Is over sharing of make up product actually harmful? In the front of the mirror, conversations amongst friend are like:
"Ooooh I love that colour, can I try"
"Ooooh I can't find my red, can I have yours"
"I left my blush in the other bag, can I have yours"
The list is unending. Sharing makeup doesn't automatically have to mean a germ fest, and there are ways to do it while reducing exposure to bacteria.
However, it's okay to share certain products as long as they're easy to sanitize, if you know the person well enough, it makes it easier to ask if they're sick or if they are suffering from an infection that can be transferred through sharing certain types of makeup. There are some products that you simply shouldn't share, whether you know the share-ee well or not. Mascara and lip gloss are especially risky items to share. However, any type of face powder including powder foundation or blush are among the least likely to transmit harmful bacteria.
Sometimes it's hard to say no to a friend who wants to borrow your lipstick, no matter how germ-phobic you are. If you absolutely cannot get out of sharing a product without coming off as a mean and selfish person, you can still reduce germs and bacteria present. You can spray a coat of 70 percent isopropyl alcohol over the product and then gently wipe off the first layer to sanitize it.(Make Up Sanitizers).
Never test a lip or eye product directly on your face at any beauty shop, instead, see if you can get a sample or apply a bit of product on the back of your hand if you want to test or explore the colour.
