Is makeup bad for facial skin?

Question

Is it okay to use everyday or just once or twice a week.

Answer 1

If you use it properly, it is just fine to wear it every day. However, you must remove it before you go to sleep at night, wash your face both after removing it AND before putting it on, and ALWAYS put on a moisturizer BEFORE you put on your makeup.

Answer 2

Don't worry. It is definitely all right to wear makeup every day. But the key is, as many people have said before me, to make sure that you have a very very good makeup remover. There are a lot of brands out there, but the company that is most famous for their skin purifiers is Shu Uemura. You can probably order their products online--the makeup removers come in four different colors, all serving different purposes. Though I'm not too familiar with the orange and the yellow, the green one is green tea based, and it's for removing heavier makeup and replenishing dry skin. The one that I use and swear by is the new pink bottle of cherry blossom based remover--it's designed for people who make light makeup and it just feels very light and airy on your skin. That's as best as I can describe it hahaha. It is kind of pricey at around sixty or seventy dollars a bottle, but the bottle is humongous and it'll last you forever.

The trick to using makeup remover is the process. You can't really rush it--that's why a lot of people get annoyed and they just want to put it on and wash it off like a facial cleanser, but that's not how it works. It goes on kind of oily and you have to massage your face, emphasizing where you put on the most makeup. Then you have to dip your fingertips in water and continue massing your face. The makeup remover will start to emulsify and look like a regular facial cleanser. Repeat the process a couple of times and then you can just rinse it off. Yeah it really takes a while, but it's worth it haha.

Follow through with a good facial cleanser, moisturizer, and toner. If you do all this then it will be perfectly all right for you to wear makeup as much as you'd like :)

U can use it evryday. But make sure u wash ur face with a good face wash. Mascara and eyeliner can b removed with baby oil , also other make-up.If u don't remove make-up properly it clogs the skin pores and that may lead to breakouts.Use a toner once a week. Take rosewater and dab it on a cotton swab and clean ur face. Rosewater keeps the skin glowind.

Tip: Applying blusher all the time can be irritating. Use peachy blush that is very IN (a cream one preferebly) Or a natural method is to take a small piece of beetroot and rub it gently on ur cheeks u will get a lovely pink tint!!!

Yes,all make-up is bad for skin. They label makeup,with non cosmejetic,or oil free,and I just read in a Newspaper,that they CAN label these products w/out being properly tested,(brands in stores,) They can even label them "dermetologist tested"and it doesn't mean a thing. If the product says dermatologist recommended or certified,the product was tested. Bare Minerals,is a tested over to the max,product that is natural,and is good for your skin. Also Shiseido,IsaKnox,and other brands found only at beauty shops,and fine retailers,are better than Cover Girls,Max Factor,etc. The closest store shelved cosmetics that are great are Physicians Formula and Neautrogena. PHys formula,is the most expensive,and is put together by professionals. Neautrogena,has been trusted and dermatologist recommended for a long time,and still going strong.

Answer 5

make up does damage ur skin.. but its ok to use everyday if u take proper care of ur skin.. like cleaning all the make up before sleeping, use night cream to repair ur skin.. sometimes, when u're at home, avoid applying anything and let the skin breath, do some facial or apply masks..

it should help u keep ur skin healthy even if u wear make up everyday

Answer 6

If you wear make-up, be sure to cleanse your face before sleeping- to keep your pores clear. You should have a good cleanse/tone/moisturize regimen too. Proper skin care will help prevent problems like wrinkles and dry skin. Then, you can wear less make-up and still look great.

Answer 7

Nope, makeup will dry out the skin over time and cause wrinkles.

Answer 8

Light make up with a touch of concealer, a little blush, and lip gloss will keep you looking fresh and natural. Easy application, easy going on the face too. ;)

Answer 9

i don't understand why do people even apply cosmetics, it only shows that you aren't gorgeous enough that you have to use cosmetics to make you look beautiful, that's just artificial beauty-not natural and in a way yes it is harmful to the skin, worse to use it everyday

Answer 10

it depends on what make-up you use. As for foundation, I recommend a powder foundation, like barely minerals... it doesn't clog your pores, and prevents acne. It is harmless. As far as other makeup like eyeshadow, etc... it's all fine... it's tested
