Foundation

1 of 11
Instead of putting your fingers in your foundation bottle or applying lipstick directly to your lips, scoop or pour out your daily cosmetics onto a stainless steel palette (available at beauty supply stores). Then you are free to use your hands or brushes to apply it. If you never touch your hands to the opening of a liquid or gel product—or your mouth to the edge of a lipstick—you will keep it bacteria-free longer.
