Though there are still no studies to show how long the virus can stay on or in our makeup, it’s high time we give them a good wipe, especially since most of our makeup products come in plastic packaging. Studies have shown that the virus could survive up to 24 hours on cardboard, and two to three days on plastic and stainless steel surfaces. US-based dermatologist Adam Mamelak told HuffPost: “Plastic makeup tubes, bottles and compacts can be a concern for transmission of the virus,” as handling and applying makeup “could be a very real way to contract the virus.”īy now we should know that touching our face after being in contact with contaminated surfaces can cause infection. Everyday items like our makeup stash can also be easily overlooked, but it is often a potential breeding ground for bacteria and viruses.
