Bad Products for Sensitive Eyes?

[BrowneyedBeauty]

Hey. I know I've watched some videos on youtube and read on here that many of us have sensitive eyes and/or allergies to MAC products. I was hoping that this could be a place where we can tell each other about products like that. I have sensitive eyes and wear contacts so I'd really like to know before I buy new products! Thanks for your help!!

I'd say mixing medium would be a no no for people with senetive eyes as alot of people say it burns, i've had this problem myself even over a paint pot.

I don't know what specific products are bad...but I can name some ingredients to avoid! These are all big irritants
Algae Extract
Cajeput Oil
Algin
Colloidal Sulfur
Caprylic Acid
PPG 2 Myristyl Propionate
Isopropyl Alcohol(found in many face washes/toners)
Laureth 4(found in many foundations/powders/bronzers)
Octyl Stearate
Steareth 10
Xylene
Acetone(of course, lol)
PEG 16 Lanolin
Solulan 16
Hope my little list there helps you out!

I've noticed that a lot of the mac make up removers irritate my hands, not just my eyes! Also the wipes make my hands splotchy where I have to hold them.
