The worst thing about makeup is using old mascara and getting a stye in your eye or, using old powder and breaking out in pimples. I hardly ever wear makeup and, when I do I am super nervous that its too old and might break me out. However, now that I am older and thinking about my aging skin, I think it is very important to know when it is time to part with my cosmetics. Luckily, I was reading Elle Girl and I came across and article that answered this exact question! Read below to find out when to throw your makeup away.
