Everyday life is tough on eyes

We're in front of computers, viewing television and tiny cell phone screens. We get up early and stay up late. We walk through fumes and other airborne pollutants. We're exposed to the glare of the sun, the drying effects of air conditioning and the irritation of smoke and swimming pools; it's a hard life for our eyes, however you look at it.

MAKE UP TIPS


	Make-up timeline To ensure your eyes stay healthy and free of infection when using make-up, heed the following due-date rules. Throw out your mascara after three months, powder eye shadows every nine to 18 months, and cream eye shadows every six to 12 months. Sharpen your eyeliners often to keep them clean.
	Mascara mistakes To avoid mascara flake-off or smudging on your face, apply a thin cost of mascara to top lashes only. Then run an eyelash brush through lashes to prevent clumpy mascara build-up.
	Make sure you read and do close work in good light.
	It is wise to have your eyes tested regularly by a qualified practitioner.
