When To Let Go Of Your Cosmetics

Many people often wonder if they should toss or keep their cosmetics after a certain period of time, and the answer is yes. We know most people are tempted to hold on to these cosmetics even after they see the expiry dates, we at Body Beautiful Spa are advising that you toss them after a while. It's better to be safe than sorry.

Here are a few cosmetics and their life span:

· Cleansers/Moisturizers (cream/gel/liquid): 6 months to a year
· Liquid/Cream foundations: 6 months to a year
· Concealer: 1 year
· Powders: up to 2 years
· Eyeshadow/Blush: 3 years, unless in cream formulation, which shortens product life to 1 year
· Pencils: 3 years (sharpen with each use to prevent bacteria buildup)
· Mascara: 3 months
· Lipstick: 2 years
· Lipgloss: 1 year

How To Get Rid of Dark Underarm Spots

Many women struggle with dark underarm spots, which can prove to be embarrassing and unsightly especially when wearing sleeveless tops. Dark underarm spots are a signal that shaving is irritating the skin. In order to combat it, it’s important to modify your hair removal routine and take great care of your shaving utensils. If you use a razor to shave under your arms, here are some tips that can decrease the chance you’ll develop dark underarm spots:

Start by using a gentle exfoliating body wash or towelette to remove impurities that cause irritation, ingrown hairs, and red bumps.

Rinse thoroughly, shave normally, and pat underarms dry with a towel.

Apply deodorant with a moisturizing system that soothes shaving irritation.

Don’t keep your razors in the shower. Items left in the shower can become breeding grounds for bacteria — which can lead to shaving irritation and infection.
