Biosecurity is called a set of techniques to prevent, eliminate and reduce risks to the health of human life and its collective.
Learning to apply makeup with your own products reduces the proliferation of bacteria, fungi and viruses to other people, the makeup artist must observe these steps to avoid any transmission of harmful agents at the time of the session.
Wash your hands before any procedure. Do not use the glove without ideal hand washing with soap and water and 70% alcohol.
Face: do not blow on the brush, as thousands of droplets of saliva will contaminate the brush and pass on the client's face.
Cotton: disposable use.
Do not mix products! Companies make their cosmetics with disinfection standard, so do not manipulate products because they can give an allergic reaction and proliferate microorganisms that cause many problems for the skin.
Eyes: the eyelash mask must be for individual use, if you are going to apply makeup with someone, take yours and do not let someone else use it, as there is a risk of contamination in the packaging.
Prefer disposable brushes.
Eye pencil: only use the client's pencil and aim to eliminate residues.
False eyelashes must be sanitized correctly so as not to proliferate microorganisms that can cause allergies and damage to the eyes.
Mouth: the makeup artist must remove the lipstick with a spatula and put it on a base to use the amount without contaminating the rest of the product.
As for the mouth pencil, use the client's own pencil so you don't contaminate the next client with saliva bacteria.
Brush cleaning
If you are going to apply makeup to a lot of people at the same time, wash your brushes with soap and water and use brush cleaners, you can dry them with a clean paper towel.
Each person can bring their own brushes to avoid contamination from one makeup to another.
The makeup artist must wear gloves, mouth protection mask and put a cap on the hair to avoid falling on the client's face.
Products must be in their original packaging, with label and expiration date to avoid problems with possible allergies with the customer.
Prevention actions can help to reduce contamination by fungi, viruses and bacteria, for example, streptococci that are in the saliva, nose and other mucosal parts of the body. Makeup would be much safer if people could protect themselves, to avoid a series of pathologies or contamination. Demand this care from your professional.
