my 3rd cuzen sed if you dont wash it off the bugs in you or sumthing like that will eat the mascera and your eay lash will get shorter...
will that realy happen i love my eay lash long.What happens to your eye lash when you don't clean the mascara off?
Your cousin is right, except his/her explanation is a bit unprofessional. He/she means your mascara might attract bacteria, which could make your lashes decay, and eventually break off. I also recently read that there actually are little mites that could crawl up your lashes, although this never happened to me ... I hope it never does.
Usually washable mascaras should be washed off once you use a cleanser to clean your face, but if you use waterproof, invest in a good eye makeup remover (like Neutrogena's Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover)
Because bacteria is easy to get in mascara, remember to close your mascara tube extra tight because you don't want anything gross getting in there. If you forgot about it and left it in the room opened for a day or so, chances are it dries out and attracted a lot of bacteria. In that case, throw it away, it's not worth it to ruin your eyes and get an infection just because you don't want to waste money.What happens to your eye lash when you don't clean the mascara off?
You're eyelashes are more likely to break and fall out if you leave the mascara in. Mascara clumps and hardens your eyelashes, therefore it is easier to break. Simply wash your makeup off at night with a makeup remover or baby shampoo.
Yes, there is a bug that feeds on the dead skin in your eyelashes. They are known as Demodex or more commonly as Eyelash Mites. It's more common than you think. I think about 1/3rd of the population have these mites. They are more likely to feed on hosts that wear heavy eye makeup. If you want to check to see if you're a host to these parasites, pull out an eyelash and place it under a microscope. They don't cause any harm to you, just a few unfortunate side effects (Acne, red skin, widened pores, etc.) Occasionally, one may experience itching or tingling of the infected area. (Think about that the next time your eye itches)
Proof: (I'm not just making up things to gross you out)

lol, ur cousin is just tryin to freak u out lol, but its not a good idea to leave it on cuz it easier fo ur eyelashes to get pulled out that way and not good for ur eyes if it runs into them(though this is not like, really bad or lasting at all) just wash it off gently with soap and water :)
ps. there are microscopic bugs on u but there on everyone and there good because they eat away ur dead skin, without them u would have to exfoliat like crazy lol. but they dont eat u eyelashes lol
I don't know about it eating your eyelash and making it shorter but often times not properly cleaning off eye make up can lead to stys, which are not fun. I know a lot of people use a small amount of baby oil on a cotton ball for taking off eye make up and they sell great/fairly inexpensive eye remover pads at most drug stores/department stores [ie. Wal-Mart] :D
Mascara basically coats your lashes with ';gunk'; that is food for bacteria. This bacteria will build up longer and get stonger the longer you leave it's ';gung'; food on your lashes.
So. If you don't mind bacteria building castles around your eyes...leave the mascara...by all means...
Leaving your mascara and eye make-up on overnight could mean that you wake up with sore or irritable eyes so it's always advisable to remove your make-up before falling into bed - no matter how tired you're feeling! You're eyelashes won't be brittle(which could make them fall off!)
First of all, it's awful to get off after a night's worth. It clumps and just yuck.
And I've heard that before, but i'm not sure if it's true.
OMG i leave it on all the time you can only get zits dont worry about it!!
My mother's lashes eventually fell out and never grew back. I suggest just washing it off, it's not like it's hard or anything.
LOL no......
Bugs eating them??? WTF?
The mascara w/ just rub off and your eyelashes might break off.......... and get shorter but they'll grow back.........
infection.
Your lashes will break, and your cousin is right. There are microscopic bugs that eat mascara while you sleep...
ur eyelashes explode
Umm... Just wash it off...
i know it's bad to use the waterproof kind.
no, not true.
ahh omg i have no idear
yeah well hope fully you take a shower often so...
