Ouch!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m not quite sure what happened, to be perfectly honest. I was tired, yes but not exceedingly so. It wasn&#8217;t terribly late, but I&#8217;d had some furniture delivered, and I had been clearing up my spaces. I was about to have my shower, when I realised I still had my makeup on from the day. (For the record, the Kanebo Lunasol Water Gel Foundation is seriously something. So impressed!)<\/p>\n<p>So I reached for the first blue bottle I saw on the counter, picked it up, thought it smelled funny, wet a piece of cotton pad, laid the cotton pad against my eye &#8230; and promptly ran screaming for the bathroom. It BURNS!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Even as I ran cold water from the tap over my eyes, I could not help wondering why my regular Lip and Eye makeup remover would suddenly turn on me. I wondered if I had accidentally cut my eye lid.<\/p>\n<p>It was only a few moments later that the strong, unmistakeable smell of nail polish remover cut through the fog in my brain. &#8220;I just put nail polish remover on my eye!!&#8221; You know when people say &#8220;\/facepalm&#8221; but they just say it? I had a literal \/facepalm moment right there.<\/p>\n<p>There doesn&#8217;t seem to be any lasting damage, thankfully. I had closed my eyes to remove the eyeshadow and mascara, and had almost immediately rinsed it off my skin. I was almost afraid to open my right eye lest I had gone blind but fortunately, it all seems to be good.<\/p>\n<p>I now keep my nail polish remover in a separate room. Not taking my chances again!<\/p>\n<p>Oh and for the record, nail polish remover sucks at removing eye makeup \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<h4>What&#8217;s the worst\/most painful makeup or skincare mistake that has ever happened to you?<\/h4>\n<p>On a scale of 1-10, this has had to be a 10 on the scale of pain, stupidity and now that I&#8217;d told you about it, acute embarrassment LOL!<\/p>\n<p>Paris B<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, those of you following me on Twitter might have come across this status update: Just mistook nail polish remover for eye makeup remover.
