How Bad Is It For Your Skin If You Wear Makeup Every Day?
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Whether you wear it to boost your confidence or as a form of self-expression, makeup is rumored to have a negative impact on your skin’s health if you wear it every day. “In skin care, it’s used more intensively as a treatment to keep skin supple, while in makeup, it helps the product glide on smoothly and provides an extra layer of hydration throughout the day,” said Yashi Shrestha, the co-founder and head of chemistry and sustainability at Novi Connect, a technology platform that helps retailers create sustainable products and packaging. “Wearing makeup to bed blocks these natural processes, leading to clogged pores, irritation and a buildup of dead skin cells that would otherwise be shed,” Indigo explained. Even though dermatologists generally agree that wearing makeup daily is safe with the right skin care routine, you might want to skip it in certain situations to preserve your skin’s health. “Ultimately, choosing makeup with skin care benefits, combined with mindful habits — like thorough nightly cleansing and regular brush cleaning — helps ensure healthy skin even with daily makeup wear,” Shrestha said.
