      Powder Foudation, Blush, & Eyeshadow
      Shelf-life: 2 years.
      How to tell: Expired powders tend to be more dry and flaky than new ones.
      Rule: Invest in a cosmetic sanitizer and brush shampoo! Cleaning your makeup and tools on a regular basis will help prevent both bacteria growth and breakouts!
