Unwanted make-up.

Mainly lipstick bought online that aren't as expected or foundation colour mistakes.

Is there anything to be done with them other than bin them? Such a waste but lipstick particularly hard to pass on.

There are make up recycling bins in Tesco

This has happened to me a few times. I top up with another colour on my lips. Works really well.

They're mainly Mac, EL and Lancôme, some just applied once. I want to cull what I've got down to those I regularly use.

I have a silly amount and would love to give to a woman's charity but can completely understand that's not appropriate. Unless anyone knows of a way they can be sanitised?

I've sold lightly used makeup on ebay, including lipsticks

Women's refuges may be interested. I'm betting many women arrive with next to nothing in the way of belongings.
