Make sure you remove your eye makeup

cherry — Fri, 01 Jun 2018 10:55:32 GMT

This story is rather strange. It sounds to me like ,this woman might have just plastered eye makeup, on top of eye make up, without ever removing it. She did this for 25 years

I don't know how she could stand it ,and the Dr never saw anything like it before. Globs of old mascara were embedded under her eyelid

I don't know how people can go to bed without first ,washing their face and brushing their teeth?

@cherry Those pictures were gross. Even under her fingernails. I can’t believe she didn’t feel discomfort much earlier. Thanks for sharing??🙀

Just the thought of that is hard to stomach. Everything is OK as long as it looks good from the outside?? The eyes, the fingernails. I'd hate to think what her other hygiene practices are, or are not. I very much hope she really takes the doctor's words to heart and can live a much healthier life. She's a pretty lady, I cannot imagine how she suffered through that all those years.

Ewww - She is SO LUCKY! Didn’t she have an eye exam during all that time? I only saw the first 2 pictures before I almost lost my breakfast. The underside of her nails aren’t looking too good, either.

Yeah, the nails were almost worse!

Doctors are miracle workers, at times.

Have a feeling behaviors won’t change..and the next doctor

visit might not be as positive to fix....cuz you can’t fix stupid.

Pretty lady, but...ooof...what else is negligent?

I wonder what brand of mascara she used ....

Let me tell you, I tried IT COSMETICS mascara and that stuff was HARD to remove, never had a problem with other kinds of mascara, even drug store brands with the makeup and mascara remover I regularly use....And not only that, but the mascara made my eyes burn.....

I read this online, but quite honestly, I don't believe that anyone would not remove their eye makeup for 25 years, just adding on top of it for that length of time.

If they did, I think they would have lost all of their eyelashes at the very least, not to mention having unattractive goopy, spider lashes.

IMO opinion, I think this is one of those stories someone made up, hoping it would go viral, for 15 minutes of fame or monetary gain.

@KingstonsMom this has been documented by the American Ophthalmology Academy

That woman needs to wash her hands and face...that's just plain nasty.

Wouldn't you think she would be embarrassed to admit her bad hygiene ,and have it published for everyone to see?

@cherry

I love your posts and please don't think I was criticizing your post at all, I truly wasn't, and I also read the article online.

I have no doubt that can happen after repeatedly not removing your eye makeup, I just think the woman was exaggerating to her Dr's, when she said she didn't remove it for 25 years.

I didn't think that @KingstonsMom..I just wanted to see if it was confirmed anywhere else. It is. I think as bad as is was ,it must have taken a very long time to get that way

This reminds me of the UK woman who had 27 contact lenses on her eye. How could she even see out of that eye?

I interpret this 25 year thing that she always went to bed without washing her face - or anything else for that matter. Lucky her that she didn't have a terrible complexion. Bad hygiene habits.

Gross. And her fingernails are gross too. Just yuck.

It would drive me nuts to go to bed with eye makeup on. I honestly don't think I could sleep.

just my opinion of course, a person has to be mental to be like that

E-Gads...who the heck just piles on 25 years of mascara? What was she thinking?

Re: Make sure you remove your eye makeup

Yahooey — Sat, 02 Jun 2018 17:36:54 GMT

I guess she showered/bathed but didnt'use speical makeup remover for her mascara. 25 years w/o taking it off is quite impressive. I would think a yhear would do you in.
