I'm not sure what catagory to put this in but I was wondering if I should put my contact lenses in before or after my makeup?? Also any quick and easy ways to remove the contacts?

When I wear contacts, I usually do it before because my eyes always water when putting them in soooooo yeah.

Mine water after I put them in as well so I put them in before. And to take them out, I just look up and pinch the contact with the pads of my fingers. Are you just starting to use them? It gets easier with practice. (:

I also do it before :)
And one kinda weird way to take out the contact is to push it toward the inner corner of your eye...the contact just pops out! My best fried told me that in the 7th grade when I first started wearing contacts and I still do it that way, especially if I have claws on lol cause then I have trouble putting my fingers near my eye

I put them in after I apply my makeup. I find that way easier and I just take them out I just slightly pinch them

Also because when I put them in I have to pull on my upper lid and that would smear my makeup like crazy if I did it after. But if you do put them in before, be very careful not to get mascara on them cause it's hard to get off and you don't wanna have a black line in your vision.


I take them off using the popping technique which is where you don't have to touch your eye to remove them (I could never get it).

Do it before. If you put in your contacts after, any debris that fell into your eye will be trapped under the contact, and can cause scratches on your eye. Always put in your contacts before putting on any makeup, and take them out before removing makeup.

Alyx is spot on. safest to do it before. I wouldnt even try and put mine if my make up was already on.

Put your contacts in before you do your makeup , so your makeup won't get ruined

I wear contacts and I tried putting them in after when I first got them and it was a disaster! My eyes just watered and smudged all of the makeup. Plus, it's easier to do makeup when you can see!

I do it before because after doing makeup there is all sorts of shiz on my hands plus I can't see what I'm drawing onto my face without them

I wear contacts, when I wear them I put them in before. If I have any fallout makeup that happens to get in my eye it lands on my contact and I can wipe it off with my finger. It helps with it not getting in my eye and hurting. Also if I put it in afterwards my hands are wet from the contacts which mess up my makeup which isn't good. But it's just personal preference.

I am dead ass blind without my contacts, so I have to put them in first! I've never had a problem!
