"Wherever you can view  the E-coli, you just have to think about 'E-coli together with the dirt.  Because there is a possibility after a person goes to the bathroom,  they do not wash their hands and then try the existing cosmetics Beauty  Shop," said dr. Elizabeth Brooks, a  professor of biology at Jefferson Medical College in Pennsylvania, who  led the research. 
In this study, the  researchers spent two years analyzing the make-up samples taken from  department stores, specialist shops and pharmacies. They use sterile cotton  to take samples of products, including makeup to skin, eyes and lips. They then transfer it  into a make-up chemicals where bacteria can grow. The result, approximately  67-100 percent of the product showed some level of contamination. 
According to researchers  makeup will be more likely to be contaminated on Saturday - the busiest  shopping day of the week. Therefore, they recommend  that if you really want to try make-up before buying do it on a  weekday, where visitors are coming and using makeup testers are  generally much less so any risk of contamination is smaller. Or ask the 'single  tester' or mini-sample to only one person. And last but not least,  you should wash the face after trying to make up from beauty stores and  more careful when trying the make up of the eye.
