How Long Should You Keep Your Makeup?

How Long Should You Keep Your Makeup?

It is easy when we deal with food. It has expiration dates. Not like what we have in our make up. It doesn’t have the tag that tells us when to toss it out.

We need to know whether our makeup needs to be changed or not because of the bacteria that may be living in it or maybe it needs to be changed because it has lost its effectiveness.

Let’s take a moment and check out how make up should be and which ones to toss out now.

If it smells, throw it out.
Obviously, if your make up is not what it used to be, it is time to throw it out. Chances are the make up has overstayed its use.

Avoid buying in bulks
Those big sizes do not guarantee that they will still be fresh in six months unless you have a big family to share it with.

What to toss within three months
Makeup kits that easily harbor bacteria are the ones you need to toss out in three months. These would include sponges and razors. High –quality sponges will last up only up to three months even if you wash it after every use. The cheap ones should be tossed after one time use. Razors should be thrown out after six usages or if the blades are no longer sharp. Do not keep the razors in your shower.

What to toss after three to six months
These makeups is used near the eyes so you need to take care of them. Throw them out within six months to avoid infection. Eyeliners should be sharpened before you use them. Mascaras on the other hand, dry up after three months. It is recommended that you throw them out at that. It is a breeding ground for bacteria. Photos Copyright of PR PHOTOS

Every woman can look back at the time when hours were spent in playing dress up with dolls. This activity provided us endless hours of fun and excitement. It was practically the time when we were first exposed to the world of beauty and fashion – experimenting with colors, mixing and matching dress styles and hairstyles. Playing dress up as little girls helped us develop our sense of fashion. With the advent of the internet, the way we play dressup & makeup games have been revolutionized. The internet now offers a new realm where not only young girls but women alike can continue to experiment and play with fashion.

Dress-up and make-up games are usually targeted for young girls like the Bratz game but you will be surprised that there are other makeover game sites that are geared towards grown up ladies. Online makeup applying games are helpful for teens or women who have little knowledge in makeup. You can learn the different makeup tools and makeup application techniques. Different sites offer a wide array of clothes and makeup. Clothes and makeup are usually grouped with varying themes. Just like fashion shows, these games have spring collections, winter collections, bohemian collections and such. There are also game sites which allow you to make your own collection of clothes with matching makeup and lets you share them to the world. For ladies, these have transcended from being merely ‘games’ into a whole new world where we can practice and hone our creative skills in fashion.
