Makeup Expiry - Are Beauty Products Meant To Last Forever? by kmaz: 1:52pm On Jul 18, 2015 |
Sometimes it could be very difficult to throw away that beauty product that you love so much, especially when you spend a fortune to buy it. But at some point one has to let go because your favourite product may have become the home of bacteria. Typically drugs have expiry dates printed on them but the average beauty product does not. Here's the truth; All beauty products actually do expire, and when they do, they could cause you some skin disaster such as breakouts, irritations, burns and worse case scenario an infection. Most often bad beauty products are quickly identified by changes in it's look, texture or smell. MASCARA/EYE-LINERS It's very important that you identify when it's going bad because mascaras and eyeliners are the closest makeup product to the eyes. Both are usually either in a tube or container, so it could actually breed bacteria. When they go dry, NEVER attempt to add water to it to revive it.....It's dry means it needs to be thrown away. FOUNDATION & CONCELAERS All Foundations actually contain a proportion of water and bacteria thrives well in it. An unusual smell or change in the original colour of the foundation is an instant giveaway. POWDER & BLUSH These can be used for a much longer time since they lack water, however a few powders may contain some amount of water from additives such as natural extracts may have been added to the powder. This means you can't let your guard down. LIPSTICK / GLOSS / PENCILS They could last for a long time but the moisture content is favourable to germs as well. Since this goes on your lips and sometimes gets licked when eating or drinking, it's better to be safe than sorry. EYESHADOW Sine they actually lack water just like powders, ideally they should last long. But since it's in steady contact with the eyes, the risk is quite high. Generally it's advisable to protect your beauty products from moisture, pay attention to changes in appearance, smell, texture and most of all remain BEAUTIFUL & HEALTHY! http://simplyomata..com/2015/07/makeup-expiry-are-beauty-products-meant.html |
