Makeup Hygiene And Due Dates
April 23rd, 2007
- Forbid makeup sharing. It is unhygienic to share makeup with someone else.
- Store all cosmetics in a cool dry place, out of moisture and the sun.
- Always re-cap after use. Keep containers properly sealed.
- Cosmetics cannot last forever because they have due dates too. Throw them away once their time is up :
- Liquid foundation and nail color tend to separate. Their colors or odours will also be altered.
- Eye shadow has a change in color. Creamy ones will harden.
- Mascara turns crumpy and dry.
- Lipstick becomes discolored or moldy.
- Foundation - 1 year after opening, 2 years if unopened.
- Eye shadow - 1 year after opening, 2 years if unopened.
- Mascara - 2 months after opening, 1 year if unopened.
- Lipstick - 18 months after opening, 2 years if unopened.
