Today's video is about thoroughly washing your eyelashes and the area around your eyelids! Did you know what your eyelashes do? Surprisingly, they play a vital role in protecting your eyes! Because they play such an important role in protecting your eyes from the outside world, your eyelashes get very dirty. The real cause of this dirt is pollen, dust, PM2.5, yellow sand...and even a mite called Demodex!? If left untreated, this can cause inflammation and blockage of the outlets of the meibomian glands, which produce oil in tears, leading to dry eyes and styes, which have been attracting global attention. In this video, we explain the correct way to perform lid hygiene, which involves thoroughly washing dirty eyelashes twice a day, with practical examples.
