Why it’s more important to clean your makeup brushes regularly than you even realize - New York Post

Full coverage foundation? More like full-coverage dermatitis.

Dr. Sermed Mezher, a London physician and academic author, revealed a common item in your makeup bag can cause severe skin issues.

“This tool in every woman’s bag could be wrecking your skin,” Dr. Mezher said in the viral clip posted on his Youtube channel @DrSermedMezher, now with 1.1 million views.

In a one-minute clip, the UK medic explained how makeup brushes can cause rashes on your skin and spread throughout your body, particularly when they’re not consistently cleaned.

He unveiled a scenario about a 30-year-old patient who experienced what seemed to be an incurable skin condition.

“This rash that just wouldn’t go away no matter what she’d tried,” Mezher said. “They used steroids, antifungal medications [and] antibiotics acne creams.”

“None of [the doctors] would even touch [the rash]; eventually, it just got so severe and kept spreading,” Mezher added.

The patient continued to seek help for her condition until a dermatologist diagnosed what caused the rash on her chest, neck and face.

“Her uncleaned makeup brush,” the doctor confessed. “These things harbor more bacteria than your toilet seat.”

Mezher supported the bacteria claim with a study conducted by Spectrum Collections, which swapped a toilet seat and compared it to an uncleaned makeup bag.

Medical professionals figured out how the woman developed the major skin issue after they took a swab of her rash and sent it to the lab.

“What they found was really quite shocking,” he admitted. “Pseudomonas — it’s bacteria that only usually affects immunocompromised people like those with HIV or have been on chemotherapy.”

The Post reached out to Dr. Mezher for further comment.

The revelation of bacteria lingering in makeup brushes shocked many viewers in the video comments section.

“How long did she go without washing her makeup brushes though,” questioned one of Mehzar’s followers.

“A lot of women don’t clean them good either, those rip off brush cleaners don’t do sh-t for brushes, I use plain dish soap and it works wonders,” added another.

While Jessica Payne, a celebrity makeup artist, encourages people to clean their makeup brushes as often as once a week.

“If you start developing little breakouts here and there, and wonder why, ask yourself ‘when was the last time I cleaned my brushes,'” Payne told The Post.

The best way to clean your brushes, according to Nick Lujan, global director of artistry and education for Kevyn Aucoin, is to use tools with “quick-dry” labels.

“To use, pour or spray a bit of brush daily cleanser onto a towel. Then gently swirl your brush over the saturated area of the towel. This will remove product and sanitize your brush for later use,” Lujan previously told The Post. “Avoid hard pressure when cleaning your brush so that you don’t damage the bristles or shape of the brush.”
