Mascara has a magical effect of enlarging the eyes and has always been the highlight of eye makeup! However, daily use of mascara, frequent eyelash extensions, and even false eyelashes can unintentionally damage the eyelashes. Let's take a look at which bad habits can cause your eyelashes to fall out.
Long-term use of the same eyelash curler pad
Although the eyelash curler itself does not have an expiration date, the pad does! Prolonged use of the same eyelash curler without changing the pad can cause the rubber to wear out and easily lead to eyelash breakage. If you have the habit of curling your lashes after applying mascara, the mascara will stick to the pad. If not cleaned carefully, it can corrode the pad and make the lashes more prone to breakage!
Daily use of an eyelash curler
Curled and lifted lashes are very charming and can instantly create an electrifying effect. If you can curl your lashes a little before applying eye makeup, it will be more long-lasting than using an eyelash curler. However, daily use of an eyelash curler is like using a curling iron on your hair every day. Excessive and frequent high temperatures can cause damage to the lashes. It is better to use it occasionally for more important occasions!
Roughly removing eye makeup
When removing eye makeup, it is important to use a dedicated eye and lip makeup remover gently. If you are not wearing waterproof eye makeup, regular makeup remover cream/liquid is fine. Remember to use a sufficient amount of makeup remover cream/liquid on a cotton pad, gently press it on the eyes for 10 seconds, and it will easily remove waterproof mascara and eyeliner. Many people unintentionally rub their eyes with force, which can only cause the lashes to break or fall out. Pay attention to this!
Residual eyeliner and mascara
As much time as you spend on applying makeup, you should spend an equal amount of time carefully removing it, especially the eyes. It is important to remove any residual eyeliner and mascara. Sometimes, smudge-proof eyeliner and mascara can easily remain at the roots of the lashes, and they need to be carefully removed with a cotton swab. Otherwise, makeup residue left on the lashes can accelerate lash loss or directly cause breakage. If you don't want your lashes to fall out, pay attention to this!
Avoid rubbing your eyes roughly
After removing contact lenses at night, rubbing your eyes vigorously can result in losing several lashes! Rubbing your eyes can cause significant damage to the delicate skin around the eyes and can directly lead to lash loss. Moreover, the bacteria on your hands can easily cause eye infections. People with sensitive eyes must have experienced this kind of pain, right?!
Picky eating and nutritional imbalance
Just like hair, eyelashes need nutrients from the body to help them grow. Consuming foods that contain moderate amounts of protein, vitamin B, vitamin E, and zinc can help lashes grow healthily and prevent breakage. This will make your lashes stronger and your eyes more attractive! You may think this is a bit far-fetched since it takes a long time for the nutrients to reach the lashes after being consumed. The effects may not be immediately visible after supplementation, but if you lack these nutrients, your lashes will become fragile and break easily!
