SM: Do the same rules apply for eye shadows and liners?
Silva: The same applies to eye liners in terms of sharing and dryness. With eye shadows it’s different because it’s not necessarily a wet product that is going to break down. Nevertheless, introducing outside bacteria isn’t a good idea and you must always use clean applicators. I’m sure everybody has experienced eye shadow that suddenly becomes hard, greasy and you can’t get any color out of it because it has this waxy seal over it. That’s because dirty applicators and fingers have changed its texture.
SM: What about lipsticks and glosses that we apply directly? Can we just wait until those run out?
Silva: Yes. I use my products until they’re done unless they start smelling or when the result that you’re supposed to get from the product changes.

| It's really important to be careful with eye products. Try not to share brushes, mascara, or eye-shadow with friends - eye infections are the worst. Nothing worse than pink eye. | |
