Parting and break ups are always hard. But if you say good-bye at the right time, it is the best thing you can do to yourself. Wondering what is it we are talking about? Well, it is something as simple as makeup. While it is difficult to let go of your beloved cosmetics, here are 9 signs that tell you must replace them right away.

1. Changed Color Or Separation:

When a makeup product changes color, or separates, it is time to throw it away. Never ever use your cosmetics if they have changed color, as that is a sign the makeup has started breaking down. Separated makeup also denotes a change in the chemical composition of the makeup.

2. >6 Months:

It is always amazing to keep with the trends of the season and wear your makeup depending on what is absolutely in vogue. That being quite a timer, it is quite right to change your makeup once every six months.

3. Eye Infections:

If you have caught the painful, horrid conjunctivitis, you really need to think about this – when you use makeup on the eyes while you are suffering from the infection, the bacteria could get transferred onto the makeup and could build up and cause problems at a later stage. It is best to throw out all those eye pencils to prevent yourselves from distress later on.

4. Expiry Date:

Once a makeup product is bought and kept, we quite easily forget about it. It goes on and on and on. But it is very important to clean up once in a while, and check for the expiry date, just to make sure the makeup product is still safe for use. It could be pretty harmful to use old makeup.

5. When Did You Buy It:

And then, in some cases, the makeup doesn’t have an expiry date. And in that case, think back and remember when you bought it. If you don’t, it is time to throw it right out of the window. And honestly, there won’t be too much of love lost, because if you don’t have memories of it, you don’t care for it too much.

6. Layering Of Colors:

If your makeup begins to band and resembles the Grand Canyon, it is time to let go of it. Never mark your life events with the layering of your makeup. You can definitely do better than that.

7. Your Skin Starts To Feel Weird:

If and when your makeup starts to feel weird on your skin, it is time to say good-bye. Your makeup had begun to age and dry up. It is best to stop using it, or else it could lead to skin ailments. It will also never let you look your best.

8. Makeup Begins To Smell:

Odd smelling makeup is a sign that there are bacteria growing in it. It could also signify expiry or change in composition. It is best to avoid usage at this time. When you get strong, pungent, or sweet smells, or even chemical-based smells, it is time for a change.

9. Free Will:

Sometimes, you might just feel like going out and pampering yourself a little. It is always fun to shop, and what is more fun is shopping for spunky, colorful makeup products to match the wardrobe of the current season.

Never stop being the girly girl you are. It is alright to splurge on some color fun once in a while, and “makeup-gone-bad” can be a good enough reason for it!
