There's no doubt that people prefer contact
lenses than glasses as they look better with them. This selection is
simply based on the appearance factor. However, people are often afraid
of using cosmetics along with contacts. There is a general notion that
both of them do not go hand in hand.
Well, the
good news for all the contact lens users is that both makeup and contact
lens can gel together safely and effectively. Follow these simple
guidelines for proper use of both makeup and lenses and see the results
yourself:
A) Always apply cosmetics after inserting soft lenses.
B) Always remove lenses before removing makeup.
C) Use cosmetics labeled as ''hypoallergenic'' if you use contact lenses.
D) Prefer using water soluble cosmetics.
