It’s great hanging out with all your friends, experimenting with makeup colours and looks. You may even be the envy of all the girls, with a makeup bag stuffed full of the best beauty treasures. It’s important to have fun but not at the cost of yours and your friends’ safety.
The Safe Beauty Association (SBA) has launched to help you practice safe and hygienic beauty and identify those makeup artists and brands that prioritise your safety through hygienic practise. Jackie Tyson, celebrity makeup artist & Chief Makeup Artist for ITV’s The X-Factor says: “Good hygiene in our industry is vital and something I have long championed. I am so pleased to hear about the launch of this Association and fully support its initiative.”
