Mascara Wands????
I personally use disposable mascara wands, but i noticed some makeup artist use the wand from the tube and just clean it per client. Is that ok to do ?

I don't think the risk is worth the hassle. Its impossible to sterilise competely without medical equipment, we can only clean and disinfect and eyes are much more vunerable to infection than the rest of the face. And there's some hideous things that live in the eyelashes, such as these cute little guys http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demodex And to be honest, the less brush cleaning you have to do...

I looked at her and handed her a hand full of my own disposables fro my kit.. she was pissed at me and sent me home.. Dec 09 12 12:52 pm Link Lauren Reynolds MUA wrote: This. And I doubt any mascara wands would survive the sterilization process. Most methods involve intense heat to destroy certain viruses, fungus and mould that alcohol alone won't kill. Dec 09 12 02:08 pm Link DP Dec 09 12 02:12 pm Link It's best to use disposable wands. Never double dip with that disposable wand. If you think you will forget, cut the wand off the cap. This way you must use a disposable. Dec 10 12 08:52 pm Link Best to use disposables, it amazes me how many people just make their own rules about sanitation in this business. Dec 16 12 01:20 pm Link Always only disposable. Same goes with lipgloss do not ever use it from the tube. Dec 21 12 05:09 pm Link Would YOU feel comfortable using a wand that has been used on a dozen or so other women? I'm very, very cautious when it comes to makeup... especially eye makeup. There are so many diseases and infections out there, I wouldn't dream of sharing my mascara - that's gross! Always use disposable, or have a separate mascara tube for you and only use the wand on yourself. Dec 22 12 11:29 am Link I sometimes buy the cheap elf mascaras for a buck and then throw them away or give them to the client. Otherwise I use disposable wands Dec 26 12 08:02 pm Link I try to use falsies as much as possible Jan 02 13 03:19 pm Link MP Make-up Artistry wrote: Yeah, I think you dodged a bullet there! What if you followed hygienic procedures but the other MUAs didn't and something nasty broke out. Your reputation would still be at risk because of even just one idiot. Wow... really. CRC has #75 mascara wands for $8.40. I mean, is a case of pink eye less expensive than a .11 cent wand? Craziness... Jan 06 13 09:40 am Link Studio 7 wrote: Which still need mascara.
