What is the shelf life of liquid eyeliner?

For urban white-collar workers, if they want to go to work looking glamorous and beautiful, in addition to bright clothes, they also need exquisite makeup. If you want to have a delicate makeup, eye makeup is essential, so eyeliner, mascara, eye shadow cream and other cosmetics are indispensable in many women's makeup bags. These cosmetics are used in small quantities so one portion can be used for a long time, but many people want to know whether eye makeup, including eyeliner, has a shelf life?

Shelf life of eyeliner cream and liquid eyeliner: 3 months Eyeliner pencil: 1 year

It seems that the shelf life of eye makeup products is not very long. I believe that everyone who has used them knows that they will easily become dry and breed bacteria after using them for a period of time. If you find that there are white heads on the tip of your eyeliner that cannot be cut off, or that your eyeliner is easily removed after application, this may be a sign that your eyeliner is about to expire.

The lifespan of liquid eyeliner does not exceed half a year, while that of eyeliner pencil is generally around 1 year. To protect your eyes, if you find any signs of expiration, please throw away these treasures that you once loved.

Mascara shelf life: 3-6 months

According to many netizens, mascara is the cosmetic product with the shortest shelf life. Mascara is chemically unstable and easily deteriorates. If you find that the mascara has an odor during the trial period, it is reminding you that it is time to discard it.

Some smart users also have tips to extend its life. When using mascara, avoid pulling the mascara brush head back and forth many times, and gently rotate the mascara brush head out of the bottle mouth. This can prevent too much air from entering the bottle and causing the mascara to dry faster.

Eyeshadow cream: 6 months Eyeshadow powder: 2 years

The shelf life of powdered eye shadow is generally 1 to 2 years. If the color of the eye shadow changes during use, or waxy substances are produced, then you should be alert or take action immediately to stop!

In fact, all cosmetics have a shelf life, and of course eye makeup does too. Generally speaking, eye makeup cosmetics should not be used if they are out of date, because their color and properties will change. Not only will they not have the same effect as before, but they may also irritate our skin. Therefore, the editor recommends that any cosmetics that are expired should be replaced in time!
