Stunning Lashes with Sensitive Eyes: It’s Entirely Doable

There are countless, frustrating ways in which seemingly minor characteristics and conditions can create limitations that the market simply (and often surprisingly) doesn’t recognize. Anyone who has never encountered a brand they really like but that doesn’t accommodate their skin tone, complexion, etc. is lucky indeed. Among these characteristics and conditions are sensitive skin and eyes. And in many cases, qualifying skin and eye sensitivity as “minor” is a major misnomer.

Reactions to harmful synthetic chemicals or components that act as irritants range from low-level discomfort and swelling to more significant side effects. That’s why it’s so gratifying to find out there actually are brands out there for women who’d at least like the option of being able to use eyeliner, mascara, or fake eyelashes without discomfort—and without having to worry about what’s in the products.

If you have sensitive skin or eyes and have ever had to deal with irritating eye makeup, or, reasonably, if you’d just like to know some common irritants and ingredients to avoid, read on.

What to Avoid

Unfortunately, if a brand doesn’t advertise loud and proud that they’re without certain known harmful or irritating substances, there’s a decent chance these ingredients are lurking in their formulas. So, if you’re searching for eyeliner or mascara for sensitive eyes, make sure you look into the company that’s creating it, so you’re sure to buy from a brand that prioritizes safe products. Here are some common irritants to avoid:

Latex

Latex is an undeniably versatile substance that functions well for those who have no allergies or sensitivities to it. However, for those who do have sensitivities to it, which is not uncommon, and especially allergies, it can cause irritation. It can also cause aggravation for those with sensitive eyes, so it’s best to avoid any eyelash glues with latex altogether if your eyes are sensitive.
Parabens

Parabens are mildly acidic chemical compounds that are used as preservatives in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. They can irritate the skin and research has also suggested they may disrupt hormone function, causing health issues. It’s best to avoid parabens in makeup and to ensure that the brand you’re purchasing from proudly advertises that they use paraben-free formulas for their products.

Sulfates

Sulfates are commonly employed as cleansing agents to remove dirt and oil. They are the agent responsible for creating lather in products such as shampoos and soaps. Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) is a common sulfate-based ingredient found in personal care products, which can cause mild to more substantial irritation to the skin and eyes and may also dry out the skin.

The Takeaway

If you’re looking for eyelash glue for fake lashes and mascara or eyeliner for sensitive eyes, keep those eyes open for eye makeup formulated to be free of latex, parabens, and sulfates. Because you, like every woman, deserve to look and feel beautiful without irritation.

Read on for more information on some of the most common labels in the skincare industry. Vegan A “vegan” label typically means that a beauty product or skincare product does not contain any animal products, animal by-products, or animal derivatives. Commonly found animal ingredients can include animal hair, animal fat, and others. Vegan makeup brands also typically refrain from using ingredients obtained from living creatures, including beeswax, honey, shellac, and lanolin.
