Say Goodbye

You wouldn't think twice about throwing out food that had past it's expiration date, yet most women continue to use old and outdated makeup.
Many skin irritations and infections can come from expired makeup. So how do you know when to say goodbye. As a rule of thumb anything you use on your eyes should be tossed after about 3 months. Everything else should be thrown away after 12 months. If it's separating, gloopy or has a bad smell, toss it right away.
