How can I help my eye cosmetics to stay free of contaminations after they reach me?

There are 11 tips on the use of eye cosmetics that can be helpful, all of which the FDA urges women to follow:

• Discontinue immediately the use of any eye products that causes irritation.  If irritation persists, see a doctor.
• Recognize that bacteria on your hands could, if placed in the eye, cause infections.  Wash your hands before applying cosmetics to your eyes.
• Make sure that any instrument you place in the eye area is clean.
• Do not allow cosmetics to become covered with dust or contaminated with dirt or soil.  Wipe off the container with a damp cloth if dust or dirt is visible.
• Do not use old containers of eye cosmetics.  If you haven't used the product for several months, it's better to discard it and purchase a new one.
• Do not spit into eye cosmetics.  The bacteria in your mouth may grow in the cosmetic, and subsequent application to the eye could cause infection.
• Do not share your cosmetics.  Another person's bacteria in your cosmetics can be hazardous to you.
• Do not store cosmetics at temperatures above 85 degrees Fahrenheit.  Cosmetics held for long periods in hot cars, for example, are more susceptible to deterioration of the preservative (including natural).
• Avoid using eye cosmetics if you have an eye infection or if the skin around the eye is inflamed.  Wait until the area is healed.
  Take particular care in using eye cosmetics if you have any allergies.
• When applying or removing eye cosmetics, be careful not to scratch the eyeball or other sensitive areas.
