So, your makeup is eye drops?

A BBC article stated we touch our faces 200 times a day.
I had no idea.
Apparently it's so automatic that we don't even notice.

I've been trying to not scratch an itch, rub my eyes, pick my noggin, scratch my ear, pick food from between teeth with fingernail, etc.

It's really really hard.

Apparently, when it comes to avoiding colds and flus, not touching these body openings is right up there with washing hands.

What's your experience?
Do you even bother thinking about not touching your face?

Now, this thread is making my eyes itch.

I'm so bad about touching my eyes/face. I am not sure I can stop!

I used to work in controlled environment and had to gown up in bunny suits.

Handwashing as advised was and still is one of the processes that is taught and validated (hand dibs in growth promoting medium to detect the amount of bacteria after washing as well as after putting on sterile gloves aseptically).

If my gloved hands once cleaned by wiping with 70% sterile alcohol wipes touch anything such as the face, I would have to clean them again before they could enter the clean work zone etc. etc....

As a result of this training all those years ago, I seldom touch my face even to this day. However I do occasionally.

Sounds like the work environment I had many years ago, as a summer student. Testing injectables , sterile preparations, etc.. in a pharmaceutical company. Just getting gowned up and prepared to do the tests was quite the process.
But now I’ve lost the good habits I had back then.
