There are many personal items that we sometimes share with others but this really shouldn't be the case.
 |
Lipstick:Diseases such as herpes can be easily transmitted through sharing lipstick. Even if the affected person does not have hives, the virus can still be present in the mucous membranes of the mouth and saliva. Currently, there is no 100% effective treatment for this disease. If you have signs of illness, stop using the infected lipstick. Once the rash has cleared, you should buy a new set of makeup to prevent the disease from returning. |

Earphone:Everyone has a unique bacterial balance. Anytime you share headphones with a friend, you run the risk of upsetting this balance and potentially causing an ear infection. If you use headphones regularly, make sure to clean them at least once a week. |

When sharing hair accessoriesSince it comes into direct contact with the scalp, fungus and lice can easily be spread through tools such as combs, hair rollers or curling irons. |
 |
Towel:The main function of a towel is to absorb as much liquid as possible from the surface of your body. That is why, even if you are completely healthy, the humidity in your bathroom will gradually turn your towel into a perfect breeding ground for mold and bacteria. Hygiene experts recommend changing your towel every 3-4 days. |
 |
Deodorant:Even with antibacterial deodorants, surfaces that come into contact with the skin can harbor bacteria. These may be the same bacteria that cause the sweat odor we're trying to eliminate. |
 |
Nail and cosmetic accessories:Use your own tweezers, nail clippers, razors, and other accessories. With frequent use, these tools can cause minor injuries and leave small drops of blood on their surfaces. Do not share them with anyone if you do not want to get herpes and fungus. After each use, wipe the surface of the tool with alcohol. |
 |
Skin care accessoriesThey may seem easy to clean. However, over time they accumulate small pieces of skin that contain bacteria. This can cause acne. Don’t forget to thoroughly wash the accessories with soapy water after each use. You should also replace them every 2-3 months. |
 |
Slippers:You should purchase a pair or two of slippers for your guests. When you wear shoes, your feet will inevitably start to sweat, creating the perfect breeding ground for fungus. Wash and dry your feet before putting on slippers to prevent the growth of fungus and bacteria. It is best to replace your slippers every 6 months. |
