Wearing makeup on a regular basis can have some temporary side effects, especially if not completely removed before going to sleep. These effects can include developing an allergic reaction to one or more of the ingredients in the makeup, breaking out in a rash or acne, or drying out the skin.

Dry skin will cause wrinkles to be more visible. If you are going to wear makeup, be sure to use non-comedogenic makeup, meaning it won’t clog your skin pores. Clogged skin pores can lead to blackheads, pimples, and acne.

Oiliness on your face: Have you ever noticed excessive oiliness on someone’s face? This occurs due to regular use of oil-based foundations and creamy powders that give a slick appearance on their face. Avoid using oil-based makeup items if you already have oily skin and use loose powders and water-based foundations instead.

Allergies: There are some nasty chemicals such as parabens or sulfates which are found in makeup items which can cause skin allergies. And these reactions are not good for our skin and health. Dry patches and red spots are results of these allergic reactions.

Eye infections: Few eye makeup items some harmful chemicals that can cause conjunctivitis. Apart from this, our eyes may get damaged too.

Almost everyone in the world believes that makeup is a way to improve ourselves. Yes, it is! However, there are various other things on which we need to work in order to improvise ourselves. Start focusing on that. We already look nice, so we don’t need to wear makeup all the time.
