When It's Time to Toss Makeup

When you purchase new makeup, check for an expiration date on the label. Some popular cosmetic lines don't have a concrete date but will post a little graphic that looks like an open compact with a number that signifies how many months the product is good for. Three to six months for eye makeup and up to a year on most everything else seems to be a pretty good rule of thumb. You might consider putting a small sticker on the makeup upon your first use and noting the date. It's tough to part with makeup, particularly the colors and formulas you love, especially when you spend a lot of money on them. But the repercussions of using old makeup aren't worth it.
