I think we all know how much of a total makeup junkie that I am. I will definitely admit that, no problem. When you have such a big makeup collection sometimes you don't get the opportunity to use all of your products as often as you would like to. Unfortunately this can lead to your makeup expiring, or drying out and becoming unusable. This is probably the last thing you want to happen because then you have to throw away products that you used your hard earned money to purchase without getting to use it all up. Today we are sharing this handy Guide to Replacing Your Makeup. Did you know that your eye shadow doesn't last forever? We didn't until we did some research.

Lip Products
As far as your lip products go, you can keep them as long as you aren't noticing anything strange about them such as discoloration or dryness. Lipsticks will generally last longer than a lip gloss.
Blushes/Bronzers
Face products can last for a really long time depending on how much you use them, sometimes even years. Generally, as long as your blushes and bronzers don't look or smell funny they will be okay to continue using.

Mascara and Eyeliner
Mascara and eyeliner typically last around 6 months before they dry out. Usually once they dry out they don't work very well anymore so they're pretty much deemed useless. Always always always throw these products away if you have had any recent eye infections because then they are unsanitary.
