When do make up expires, and when to replace it. That is something we all need to know. Sense I have been wearing eye shadows, lip gloss, etc. that is important to know. I'm clearing the air, I haven't became a "Make Up Junkie" I don't plan on it either, but it's important to know the shelf life of makeup products that I'm using to put on my skin, especially eyes!
I did some research on this and came up with some great pointers!
- Concealer: 12 months.
- Powder: 2 years.
- Pencil Eyeliner: sharpen it regularly, it can last 3 years.
- Eye Shadow: 3 yrs
- Brushes: wash every 2 to 3 months with a mild cleanser/brush cleaner
- Sponges: wash weekly, throw away monthly
Tip when water based foundation dries out before expiration time use a few drops of Alcohol free Toner, mix in and shake.
- Lip Liners: 3 years.
- Lipstick: 1 to 2 years, or even up to 4 some experts say.
- Mascara: 4 mths.
- Nail Polish: 12 mths.
I wanted to share what I found out, this will help me. If you have any question post in comment section.
Thanks.
This is good to know because I use different colors and shades for the winter and summer. Now I know when to throw things out.
