keeping your cosmetics safe

You may think that leaving your house with make-up is pretty scary, but that's not half as frightening as the potential disasters that could ensue from using contaminated or allergenic cosmetics. The U.S. FDA website has this helpful article about keeping yourself safe when using face paints.

Before you dab a little of that slightly-crusty foundation on to your cheeks, you may want to give this article's pointers a once-over.
