Makeup
Good skin
care is the foundation of beauty. But many women enjoy us-ing makeup
(cosmetics) too. If you use makeup, follow these tips:
Read the labels for
product content and safety information.
Wash your hands before applying makeup.
Throw out products if
the color changes or they get an odor.
Throw out mascara after
3 months’ Keep product containers tightly closed when not in use.
Don’t share your
makeup.
Call your doctor if a product causes skin
changes like itching and rash—you may be having an allergic reaction.
Tattoos
and permanent makeup
Tattoos are
colored inks inserted under your skin. Permanent makeup is a tat-too made to
look like eyebrow, lip, and eye liner. If you like tattoos, keep these health
risks in mind: Needles that are not properly cleaned can pass infections— even
HIV—from person to person. Al-logic reactions to tattoo ink are rare but can
happen. Also, poorly applied tattoos can be costly to remove. Temporary tat-toes
and other skin-staining products, including henna dyes, can cause allergic
reactions. Henna is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
only for use as a hair dye.
Hair
removal
Cultural
norms often affect a woman’s choice to remove body hair. Many women shave their
legs and underarms. Wet hair first, then shave in the direction that your hair
grows. Chemicals called depilatories dissolve unwanted hair. Depilatories can
irritate, so always test on a small area , waxing, sugaring, or threading
treatments, find a licensed technician. Serious side effects of hair removal
can include swelling, blistering, scarring, and infection.
Body piercing
Before
piercing—poking a hole and inserting jewelry in—any part of your body, learn
about the health risks. Piercings in your tongue, cheeks, and lips may cause
gum disease. Infection is common in mouth and nose piercings, so talk with your
doctor about signs of infection as well as allergies. Also ask if your shots,
especially hepatitis and teta-nus, are up to date. And make sure the
shop follows safety and
sanitary steps as set by the law.
