We all know that the "final touch" in any make-up is the mascara, part of the beauty routine that helps to lengthen the eyelashes or make the eyes look bigger. There are several types of eyeshadows, but the waterproof one can be used even more often because it ensures that the eyeshadow will not come off when you are walking on a rainy day, go in the pool, do a lot of exercise, etc.
Experts say that this eyeshadow is not without health risks. Why should we be wary of waterproof eyeshadow?
Doctor Alexa Hecht tells "Grazia" magazine that one should be very careful with its use. "This eyeshadow should not be a permanent choice, every time you do make up. The reason is that not only can it cause irritation and dryness around the eyes, but it can also block the sebaceous glands," she says. Many chemicals like paraffin and silicone are used to achieve the waterproof eyeshadow formula. Additionally, this eyeshadow can be difficult to remove and this can lead to loss of eyelashes and the formation of dark circles around the eyes.
Using this eyeshadow every day becomes dangerous, especially for those who are allergic or have sensitive eyes. So, using it occasionally or on certain occasions is not a problem, but if you do it every day, with this step you can damage your eyes and thin your eyelashes.
If you want to prevent possible allergy or irritation, use in rare cases.
