How To Apply A Makeup MAKEOVER!

Hi Ladies,

We all want to know how to

apply makeup, but have we ever thought

about when to toss makeup? The thing is,

even though most beauty products don't

have an expiration date, they DO go bad.

"So when do I toss them?" you ask.

I got you covered ladies, I found out...


Mascara: Toss it after 3-6 months

It's really important to change mascara

often. Air can push bacteria in the tube

and cause an eye infection.

Eyeliner: Toss it after 6 months

Even if you sharpen your eyeliner every

week to keep it fresh , bacteria can still

grow around the tip. You'll know it's

there when the pencil starts to crumble

as you are sharpening it.

Foundation: Toss it after 6 months

Water-based formulas last a few weeks

longer than oil-based ones.

Eye Shadow: Toss it after 9-12 months

Old shadows get chalky and hard to apply.

Blush: Toss it after 1-2 years

If your blush breaks, throw it out right away.

Do Not salvage the chunks they'll be hard

to blend and will look caked on.

Lip Sticks: Toss it after 2 years

Replace lipsticks earlier if you notice oil

beads on the side or the color looks different

when you apply it.

Happy Makeup Makeover!
