Blepharitis Make Up Recommendations

[@keriloveschocolate]

I've been suffering with Blepharitis for 3 months now and honestly I never thought I'd be able to wear eye makeup again until I saw your channel. As someone who loves a bold, colourful eye look I was totally lost and had to idea how to put a nice makeup look together without going ham on my eyes. My eyes are feeling better these days, so I'm bringing subtle eyeshadow back, but I'm still too scared to try mascara again. I have been looking at the magnetic lashes too, but think the price of them is ridiculous. I'm going to wait and see if the price goes down before trying them myself. xx

[@codename_eve]

I'm so glad it's helped! :) Yeah they really, I noticed that Ardell have released some. I might give them a go, seeing as they're quite a well known lash company anyway! xx

[@codename_eve]

I've just googled them, the Ardell ones are only £13.99!

[@keriloveschocolate]

Ooh I think I’ll have to order a pair. £13.99 is a lot better than some of the prices I’d been seeing online. xx

[@codename_eve]

Yeah exactly. I’ve already ordered some 😃 xx

Thank you! I have blepharitis because of eczema around my eyes. I have been struggling with makeup...just bought a makeup palate (naked) and thought I never could use it ever...thank you.

[@lesliewatts7462]

Hi... How did you get rid of the eczema around your eyes? I recently developed dry skin right along my lash line.... I too have Blepharitis

[@hankypanda]

I have a huge eye makeup collection so this is the worst thing that has happened to me :( thanks for sharing this because I want to know what I can safely wear after my eyes are normal again. It’s not make ups fault, I work in an environment with lots of particulate matter and allergens in the air, the use of cosmetics didn’t help, though. sucks

[@emilysmartins]

Castor oil and some drops of tea tree oil mixed with Johnson's baby shampoo did wonders for me.

[@Ithfifi]

Thanks for this video, I am having the first flair up in over a year. I think its down to my gel liner, it was collecting along the lashes and incredibly hard to get off. Mascara life is usually three months after being opened, they list it as 6 months but once its opened you're pushing air into it every time you use it (dipping the wand) Just wanted to share. x

[@rainn605]

Thanks so much for this video. I have been recently diagnosis with blepharitis and I have been so down and thought I can't wear makeup eva. I don't wear it everyday, only on the weekends or occasionally but your video has given me hope. Thanks a million for this. X

[@codename_eve]

I'm glad its helped you. Hope you get your blepharitis all under control soon :) Stay positive! x

[@Angelheaven]

I csnt get anything in or near my eye the 5 years no make ups taught me to love myface without it but id love to wear it somtimes feel better

[@jessicaviera248]

Thank you so much for this!! I have been having so much trouble with my eyes and I love makeup. I'm definitely gonna look into these products.

[@paulalaye6428]

Hey eve good to see you once again tonight. Have to say you have wonderful Clear skin and no sign of blepharitis on your eyes or lids... I have roscea on My face which I've read may not help the blepharitis at all.. Will be seeing my consultant in March so will try to get bit sense about it from him. As far as makeup concerned I use avons fair concealer under my eyes and then on both lids, Primark mascara and only for about six weeks then chuck it, use avons soft vanilla single eyeshadow as base then Revolutions reloaded basic mattes on the top of that, use revs fastbase stick foundation In F4 and Laura gellars balance and brighten as a finishing powder... Take care my lovely Paula x

[@river8760]

Paula Laye you likely have occular rosacea. I have it too. Sucks so much!

[@leanne3687]

I found a hypoallergenic Mascara called Bell that doesn't cause any trouble with my blepharitis.

[@gracewong6449]

Know of any other good concealers? The MAC concealer doesn’t burn, but it is very dry under my eyes. Thank you for the video!

[@codename_eve]

I actually use the Maybelline Instant Anti Age Eraser Eye Concealer quite a bit these days. Just replace it regularly because of the sponge applicator on top. Or remove the sponge & use a brush

[@lisadirado3175]

Have you tried the magnetic lashes yet?

[@codename_eve]

I have, although a bit awkward to apply they actually are very comfortable & didn't upset my eyes at all

[@welcometothesaltyspitoon]

8:48 Sorry I didn't really understand your accent. Which eyeliner is this?

[@GM23XO]

I have anterior blepharitis on my eyelid. My eyelids are very inflammed at times or dry. It irritates me but i love eye makeup so much 😭 💔😪 this sucks! I wear no makeup to college only when I go out but then after a while it gets annoying or my eyeshadow doesnt look soft due to flakes on my eyelid ...

[@codename_eve]

Sorry to hear this. Although it sounds like you’re doing the right thing by not trying to wear make up all the time!

[@dymondqueen1584]

Same.. sucks 😪

[@user-wk6im5bl7q]

Same

[@itsjeffy8815]

Thank you so much for this video love, it really helped a lot!❤️ Btw if I can’t wear any mascara, is there anything else I can wear to volumise my lashes?

[@Blendbyhan]

Did you end up trying magnetic lashes out? I know this is an older video but I've had this condition now and then but its been 3 weeks non stop and i'm so sad!

[@codename_eve]

Yes I did! And I quite like them! I did end up cutting mine down though so they were more like individual lashes for the outer corners 😊 I have the ardell ones!

[@Blendbyhan]

Eve Eyre so they didn’t irritate your eyes at all? I’ve got blepharitis but my lash line looks like it been burnt off! It’s a red line and looks like it’s scared! Did you have any of those symptoms! (I went to doctors and they just put me on strong antihistamines for 2 weeks and I still have the same problem)

[@codename_eve]

No they didn’t irritate my eyes at all! I did used to get a lot of redness in & around my eyes but I wasn’t limited to just the lash line. If it is Blepharitis then those antihistamines won’t do much. I’d recommend going to see a specialist eye doctor, a lot of GPs don’t even know what it is so they struggle to provide correct treatment/ management.

[@Blendbyhan]

Eve Eyre Thankyou! I got some bits from boots for blepharitis like a foam was and a gel one aswell to soothe it! I’m not too sure if I can see them right now because of lockdown and social distancing, I’ve had 2 video appointments with the doctors and they don’t give me much info and I explain everything in detail☹️ so frustrating, woke up with inflamed eyes again and this has been almost a month so I can’t remember how my eyes looked before really xxx

[@savannah138]

@Hannah Wills I see this is an old comment so hopefully you figured out a routine to manage your symptoms but incase you haven't ill share what works for me . I use Ocusoft eye wipes in the light blue box , it says no rinse but I rinse it off anyways with bottle spring water ( tap water can worsen it) and gently dry. I do that every morning before eye drops ( I use prp drops) I avoid anything with fragrance or scent even if it's natural, my wash cloths and other laundry items are washed fragrance free as well . Makes a huge difference in preventing flare ups. Sometimes less is more when it comes to lid washes as well. I had a handful of items recommended by my Dr and it ended up being more irritating, just to many products . Keeping it simple helps.

[@ayshedzhalil713]

Thank you so much. I got to know that I have this condition a few weeks ago and I am so sad about it. Happy to learn some tips.

[@maisyjane100]

Hi iv got MGD Eyes can get really red and flaky no foundation or eye primer will cover this 😳 wat foundationeye primer wat would u recommend please?

[@cindyaronowitz9949]

I find glitter eyeshadow definetly two days after wearing it, affects my bleph sadly. Looking for eyeshadow that don't have fall out

[@gracewong6449]

Try the ilia eye shadows, found at sephora

[@Rachvanilla]

super happy I found your channel do you use any eye primer

[@codename_eve]

I generally just use my concealer :)

[@kelseyoakes803]

Could you please test out bells hypoallergenic makeup range? 😁

[@Lakennicole007]

I love your hair color do you use box dye? If so which one?

[@breebaby7488]

Hi i have blephartis also can u wear macarca and eyelash extensions?

[@codename_eve]

Mascara possibly if you find one that's good for sensitive eyes. I definitely would AVOID eyelash extensions as they can potentially cause blepharitis!

[@Angelheaven]

Iv had blepheritus 5 years cant wera make up if i put eye liner on or mascara i get swollen top eye lids im so ver it my eyes sting o god help me i sick of swelling how can i heal them

[@codename_eve]

Are you cleaning your lids properly?

[@Steertanzer]

Thank you for this! Lots of useful advice :)

[@LisasLeven]

Is this also good for having dry eyes?

[@codename_eve]

Potentially because I do suffer with that too

[@LisasLeven]

@@codename_eve do you have any experience with the morphe pallets? I Looove those and really want to try it, but it would be a bummer if I can't use it 😕

[@codename_eve]

I have quite a few actually & have never had any irritation from them! 😊

[@LisasLeven]

@@codename_eve ah alright, thank you so much! Is this concealer still working for you and not burning your eyes? In that case I'll purchase it! 😁

[@codename_eve]

Yep! Still love it 👌🏻

[@RESmakeup]

Is getting a lash lift safe?

[@codename_eve]

I wouldn't recommend it!

[@klaudiameshi7885]

Is it safe to dye hair when you have blepharitis? I want to dye my hair but I am scared of any reaction because of the blapharitis.

[@codename_eve]

I dye mine so I would say yes you can. Just make sure to do a patch test 24 hours before & be carefully when washing the dye out!

[@victoriaangelo3401]

I have been looking at the magnetic lashes. Have you tried them and if so how has that worked for you?

[@codename_eve]

I have tried them. They don’t irritate my eyes, they’re just a pain to apply! I ended up cutting mine down so they wear more like individuals.

[@SusieSynth]

Nope! Dont do it!!! I got blepharitis from magnetic eyeliner!!!! It goes through 2 layers of skin!!

[@Amy-qs2wt]

@@SusieSynth A year late but in case you don't already know, there's a version where the lash band basically have magnets in them, usually small 3 rectangles. One lash would be two magnetic lashes layered together with your natural lash in between them (one magnetic lash on top of your natural lash, then another one under your natural lash and it will naturally stick together). That way you don't have to put any chemicals on your lids or lashes, you're just gonna cover them up with falsies. It is hard to apply though, when done manually with fingers it can be hard to line up, but when done with tweezers where you stick the lashes on both ends and line it up to your lash, sometimes it just sticks to the tweezer instead and you can't get it off.

[@crystalsmith6040]

Hey how long did your swelling last before it settled and you were able to wear makeup?

[@codename_eve]

I didn’t where make up for at least 3 months after being diagnosed just to be safe.

[@crystalsmith6040]

how many times a day do you apply heat?

[@lashy1862]

You don't need makeup - you're still young and beautiful. I'm 45 and my without makeup my eyes looks like two pee holes in the snow!

[@kendalchen]

Blepharitis AND meibomitis equals basically no eye makeup ever except when I have to be on camera and need eye definition and feel like risking a chalazion. Anybody who gives someone a hard time for not wearing eye makeup clearly has no idea what a bacteria farm most eye products and applicators are. If the general population were to have the burning, watering eyes OR get chalazia from wearing mascara for six hours, maybe they'd appreciate what happens when one has old people eyelids. ;/ I haven't been able to wear the slightly winged eyeliner I used to love for over 20 years now; so long that that wouldn't look right on me anymore anyways. :-o
