MAKEUP TIPS 101: WHEN TO TOSS!

Makeup costs the average woman hundreds of dollars annually, and in her lifetime, she will spend $15,000 on makeup alone. That doesn't include other feminine products she MUST have! That's a lot of money invested just to doll yourself up on occasions because most women only do the basic everyday light foundation, mascara and lip gloss or lipstick. 
So to get your dollars worth, here's a few tips on when to toss and clean out your makeup kit. 

​

  • Mascara 3-4 months
  • Tip: If it gets clumpy or dry before then, toss it out. And never share mascara. If you do, use disposable applicators.
  • Liquid Foundation 6-12 months
  • Tip: If it has separated or changed colors, it's time to toss it out!
  • Lipstick 2 years/Lip Gloss 1 year
  • Tip: If the lipstick gets dry or the gloss becomes sticky....guess what? It's time to toss it out!
  • Powder Foundation 2 years
  • Tip: If your powder becomes dry and flaky, it's time to replace it. Keep it away from direct sunlight because UV Rays break down the preservatives in the powder. Also, clean your brushes and tools after each application and do not use the same puff or sponge longer than 1 week. Keep the plastic film in between the product and puff to prevent bacteria growth which can lead to breakouts.
  • Blush 1 year
  • Eyeliner 5 years
  • Eyeshadow 2 years
