Beauty Products Shelf Life

I found this in a bookby Jaeclyn Tay. It should be consider useful since we don't regularly use our makeup products. I guess we should start labelling our products once we use it for the first time for hygiene puropose:).



Foundation, Concealer, Loose Powder, Blusher, Eye Brow Pencil: to be thrown after 2 to 3 years
Eye Liner Pencil, Eyeshadow, Lipstick and Lip Liner: to be thrown after 2 years
Gel Eyeliner: to be thrown after 1 year
Mascara and Liquid Eyeliner: to be thrown after 2 months
Sponges and Puffs: to be thrown after 1 to 2 months
False Eyelashes: to be thrown after 2 to 3 times usage
