What can I do with unwanted make-up/toiletries?

Am about to embark on a major clearout of the above so the DCs can get their toys in the bathroom again . Is there anything I can do with the unwanted stuff, either in terms of sending it to a charity or something or a green way of getting rid of it?

PEOPLE buy used make up at car boot sales weirdly enough

not sure re makeup, but our local homeless shelter type place takes toiletries

Ewwwww to people buying used makeup at car boot sales...
No teenage friends over here but Nightshade's idea was what I was thinking of. Don't suppose they want some more do they?

give your kids a load of paper and the make-up and let them get all arty with it

Freecycle. I've seen people give stuff like that away. Christ, I've even seen people giving away Anne Summers items! The stuff is always collected.
