Time to bust another myth.

Eye makeup will not harm your eyes as long as it doesn't actually *touch* your eyes.

My work here is done.

While makeup won't damage your eye, it will collect on the lens. Particularly with women, duh. The PVP in Hydraclear, that's what Lacreon Technology is, is a magnet for lipids, the basis for most makeup. It will cake up and cloud your vision. Best to stay away from Hydracrud.

I could be wrong, but if your makeup can actually "cake up and cloud your vision," you're either wearing too much makeup or not replacing your contacts often enough. Right?
What about powdered makeup? Do those have a lot of lipids that can't resist sticking to Hydraclear?
