Great information – and maybe a little scary! I’ve actually stopped wearing mascara because I can’t use it up within the safe timeframe. I’m glad to see it’s much longer for lipstick and powdered blush and eyeshadow.
I was happy to find this infographic because I am asked a lot how long make-up should be kept when I am decluttering with clients. Since it is on your skin and near your eyes I would always suggest starting with new cosmetics to be on the safe side. But cosmetics can be very expensive so I am happy to be able to give better advise.
