Are there many uses for expired lipstick?

Lipstick is a commonly used cosmetic and beauty product, which is mainly used to beautify the color and condition of the lips, making people look more beautiful and sexy. The main consumers of lipstick are women. Therefore, most women will prepare a few lipsticks to carry with them in case of emergency. However, the life cycle of lipstick is very long, and it is inevitable that it will expire. Let's take a look at what are the useful uses of expired lipstick? I hope everyone can understand it.

If you want to continue using a lipstick that has not been expired for a long time because you are afraid of wasting it, you can first check the lipstick to see if it smells different from before. If it has a moldy smell, you cannot use it anymore. The color of some lipsticks will fade after the expiration date. This means that its chemical composition has been destroyed and it can no longer be used. It should be noted that you should not continue to use expired lipstick because you are afraid of wasting it. It is especially not suitable for sensitive skin because it will damage the skin.

1. Eyelash shaping

Whether you use mascara or not, you can apply some lipstick on your eyelashes. This can moisturize dry eyelashes in winter and make them shiny!

2. Wipe the leather

If the expired lip balm is colorless and transparent, it can be used to wipe leather shoes or small leather products. It has a polishing and lubricating effect, making the leather products as shiny as new.

3. Touch up your makeup

Apply lipstick to the area where you need to touch up your makeup, wipe off the oil in the lipstick, and you can touch up the area you want to touch up! But be careful not to use mint-flavored lipstick!

4. Lubricate rusty zippers

If the zippers of your quilt, pants or baby's clothes at home have not been used for a long time and have become rusty, you can apply expired lipstick on them and the zippers will be smoother.

5. Local makeup removal

Lip makeup or eye makeup is always difficult to remove. Using strong friction to remove makeup will cause great damage to the skin, especially the very fragile eyes. This is when lipstick can play its role. Use a cotton swab to apply an appropriate amount of lip balm to the makeup area to reduce damage to the skin and easily remove makeup.
