Introduction

Eye makeup is, for many women, an essential part of their daily identity.

Eyeliner, mascara, and lash extensions add brightness, style, and confidence.

But an increasing number of women report that they can no longer tolerate it:

  • Their eyes water.
  • Lashes fall out.
  • Contact lenses feel uncomfortable.
  • The gaze looks tired and blurry.

This phenomenon is called Makeup Drop Out: when women stop wearing makeup not because they want to, but because their eyes reject it.

Why does it happen?

Makeup Drop Out is rooted in neglect of eyelid hygiene.

Main mechanisms include:

  • Eyeliner & mascara → clog the Meibomian glands.
  • Extensions → trap Demodex, sebum, and bacteria.
  • Lack of daily cleansing → leads to chronic blepharitis.
  • Inflammation & dry eye → cause redness, stinging, watering.
  • Loss of eyelashes → aesthetic and functional decline.

The Ophthalmogen Solution

The answer is not to give up makeup.

The answer is to have healthy eyes that can tolerate makeup.

The Psychological Dimension

For many women, makeup is not a luxury but self-expression.

When they are forced to give it up, their self-confidence, professional image, and social relationships are affected.
