10 Home Remedies for Styes
Stye Home Remedy #4: Avoid Contact Lenses and Makeup
When you have an eye stye, it is recommended that you don’t wear contact lenses or makeup around the eyes. Instead, wear glasses until the styes heal. Wearing contact lenses can lead to transfer of the problem to the other eye or lead to reinfection. The same is true of makeup around the eyes. Besides, applying makeup around the eyes can cause further irritation and worsening of the stye.
You should also avoid touching your eyes and eyelids during this time. To reduce the likelihood of recurrent eye styes, clean your makeup brushes regularly and use disposable products when possible.
