Unwanted make-up/beauty products

I've just bought and used a Benefit 'Gimme Brow' which I now know to be the wrong colour 🤦‍♀️ and it's certainly not the not only product I own that that been used once but not for me.

What do you all do with your unwanted products and perfumes, is there a way of getting a little money back by selling them somewhere?

I feel like I've thrown £13 straight in the bin 🤮

I think there is a charity where you can post items to help women/girls who are living in poverty, but I don't know the name.

I cannot remember it either but there is a 'beauty box' for one of our wards in my hospital so I bring things in from time to time.

This happens to me frequently. It’s so bloody annoying. Most often lipsticks, and foundations.
i tend to pass them on to either my dds, friends or niece. Makes me feel a little better that at least they’ll be used!
I wouldn’t personally buy secondhand makeup but there’s a market for it so nothing to lose in at least trying to sell it I suppose.

I've given to women's refuge before.
When my mum died she had loads of stuff and they came and collected it and were really happy to do so.
