Always go for a premium brand, such as Clinique makeup, as they will be less likely to irritate your skin. And be sure to clean your tools regularly.  Things such as cosmetic brushes get dirty and can carry bacteria and germs and may cause skin irritations and breaking out. 

One of the leading cosmetic authorities suggests that cosmetic brushes be thoroughly cleaned at least twice a month.  A good way is to soak brushes for about 10 minutes in a dish of warm, soapy water using mild liquid detergent or baby shampoo.  Rinse and blot excess moisture with a towel and stand the brushes, handle end down, in a tall glass until they are thoroughly dry.
