What happens if you leave makeup on to long?

Answer 1

Makeup, if it's heavy and oil based, can clog pores and lead to acne, skin irritation, excess oil, or drying of the skin if it absorbs oil. Most makeup, like eyeliner and face powder, come off during the day or a night as you sleep.

Answer 2

Very simply. Your pores would get clogged and you could break out. It also won't look very pretty.

The proper Skin Care regimen is said to be cleanse, tone, moisturize. I say "said to be" because some people might skip the toner and say it isn't necessary. However I disagree. You have to ensure that your makeup is fully removed every night. You should make sure you use a cleanser that is also a makeup remover. Some that I know of are Ahava cream cleanser or any of the Nars Skin Cleansers. The toner removes any cleanser residue as well as any makeup that wasn't removed and prepares your skin for the moisturizer.

Now we all get lazy and tired at night. What I suggest is at least get a cleanser that you can tissue off or makeup remover wipes to quickly remove your makeup. I just wouldn't do this every night.
