Rules to follow if you wear contacts

Do you wear contacts? 
⁠
You probably wear them because you enjoy them and see better with contacts. But did you know your beauty practices affect how comfortably you wear contacts? ⁠

⁠
Here are my top beauty rules to follow for contact lens wearers:⁠

1- Contacts first: Put your contacts in first before you put your makeup on. If you put makeup on first, you might trap makeup particles underneath the contacts. ⁠

2- Remove contacts before taking off makeup: it’s important to take your contacts out before you remove your makeup to prevent makeup or cleansers getting trapped underneath contacts. ⁠

3- Choose water soluble products: sometimes eye creams and serums are more oil based, if the oils get under the contact lenses, this can lead to blurry vision. ⁠

4- Don’t overwear contacts: long term contact lens wear affects the health of the lash line oil glands aka the meibomian glands. When these glands become inflamed, it makes wearing makeup more difficult. ⁠

5- Contact lens care: it’s so important to properly take care of your contact lenses so you can comfortably enjoy makeup.⁠
