4 Personal Items You Should Not Lend

There should a limit to what you give out to your friends, family or closest people around you. This is not an act of wickedness but a prevention to spread and contamination of diseases.

In this article, this Online News Media will outline four things that should be private to you and never to be shared with anyone.

1. Lip Gloss And Lipstick

Your friend has left her makeup set at home. Is it certainly okay to lend her your lipstick? In fact, you shouldn’t be doing this. Diseases like herpes can be easily spread by sharing lipstick or lip gloss.

2. Earphones

Each person has a unique balance of bacterial flora in their earwax. Whenever we decide to share headphones with a friend, we run the risk of breaking that balance. This, in turn, can lead to an ear infection.

You can remove the wax from the surface of the headphones with a cotton bud or cotton swab dipped in hydrogen peroxide.

3. Deodorants

Even with deodorants with antibacterial properties, surfaces that come in contact with the skin can contain bacteria. After all, it is the bacteria that causes the smell of sweat that we are trying to neutralize.

It is best to use deodorant immediately after showering, while your skin is still clean. If you need to refresh your armpits during the day, wipe them first with a moist tissue first.

4. Towels

The main function of a towel is to absorb the maximum amount of liquid from the surface of the body. Even if you’re perfectly healthy, the humidity inside the bathroom gradually turns the damp fabric of your towel into a breeding ground for mold, bacteria, and fungus.
