SHELF LIFE OF MAKEUP

Just in case you did not know, your makeup products DOES have a shelf life after which it is not fit for use. listed below are products and their expected shelf life.

- Liquid and cream products, including cream foundation, rouge, bronzer,eye shadow, contour, highlighter: one year.
- All powder products, including loose powder,pressed powder, blush,contour, and eye shadow: two years
- Mascara and liquid eyeliner: six month
- Eye pencils, brow pencils, and lip pencils: three years.
- Lipstick, lip color in pots, lip gloss: two years

To prolong makeup's life, keep items stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Capping products tightly after use helps further extend the life of your makeup. Some products benefit from being manufactured with fresh plant extracts, making them more perishable than other brands. these products often have a ''use by'' date printed on the label.
