How can a client check basic hygiene practices for shared makeup tools?
Last reviewed:
Direct answer
Ask how tools are cleaned between clients and how products are dispensed without contaminating the main container.
Look for appropriate single-use applicators where required, clean working surfaces and staff who can explain their hygiene process. Do not share eye products or accept a tool that appears dirty simply because the appointment is running late. Tell the provider about an active eye or skin problem and seek appropriate advice before proceeding. A tidy-looking salon or expensive brand does not by itself demonstrate safe product handling.
