Use a hot compress, like a hot tea bag, and put it on your eye

No makeup throw away any mascara or eye liner that touch you eye and clean brushes.

*wash it with warm water, try not to touch it and keep it clean. If it gets worse see a doctor.

(My mums's a doctor and I've had these a few times)

Sorry about the error😳 I hope it gets better soon!

Use a sock and fill it with rice then tie the sock and microwave it. This will preserve the heat and it's not wet so it will reduce the mess. I got an infected stye and it made my whole eye swollen! Excuse my gross face but that's a pic if it!

Put the hot rag on your eye and rub a little to break it up. Be gentle! Make sure you're doing this EVERY NIGHT. I've had 2 styes and both nearly required surgery to remove (I thank God that he healed me :) ) and they got so bad because I didn't take it seriously.

A stye is an inflamed oil gland, so keep anything that can be clogging it away from your eye. this includes eyeshadow, mascara (eye makeup in general). Also, if you have dandruff, that could be getting in the glands too. Make sure to wash your eyes often, but be very gentle.

Make sure you clean your makeup and anything that touches your face.

Rub a gold ring or something on it, it has to be real gold though for it to work. My grandma taught me that and it's worked for me a few times :)
