If you mainly use natural cosmetics, then i recommend you throw these out sooner. Regular cosmetics contain ingredients that do help to prolong shelf life.

A little tip; As i'm a Make-Up artist, i always make sure that i will NEVER use an out of date product on my clients, so i put an expiry date on them so i know when to throw them out. x
