Drawers full of beauty advent calendar stuff

[Cleaninghelp]

And also a good few full of beauty box subscriptions.

can I use these if I’ve had a few years? I need to do something with them all! I think am addicted to the idea of them and never get around to using!!

There was a long-running thread about people using up their Beauty Stash. There were different approaches - one person was very strict about using something up even if she hated it or it was a bit itchy, possibly as a kind of penance...

Most posters seemed to have a rule of never buying a new one of something until they were on the last of the stash.

I suspect (having had a fair few old things myself) that if they're unopened they'll probably be fine; and once open presumably they don't last long?

You could sell them as a bundle on Vinted.

Thanks will search for thread!

I didn’t realise Vinted could do this also!

Unopened products are supposedly good for three years. Some have expiry dates on, eg sunscreens. For opened products there is a symbol on the packaging like an open pot with the number of months it is ok for, usually 12m but sometimes 6m for more ‘natural’ products with less preservatives in.

The beauty product use up thread is still going. Most of us seem to still have loads of stuff even after working hard on using things up though!
