Abstract: The present invention is an ergonomic make-up shield. The make-up shield comprises an eye portion having a curved smooth edge for engaging against a person's face adjacent to the eye. The eye portion further has two side edges which define a first plane. The make-up shield also comprises a handle portion integrally attached to the eye portion. The handle portion forms a solid closed planar surface extending downwardly in a second plane essentially perpendicular to the first plane. Preferably, the closed planar surface provides a surface area of at least 0.50 square inches for providing ample surface area for ease of handling and ergonomic wrist positioning. The natural position of the wrist while grasping the handle portion between the thumb and the index finger turns the hand and knuckles sideways to provide a clear open area which is specifically the area where the other hand applies the make-up to the face.
