What's the cheapest makeup (including eyeline, lipliner, eyeshadow, lipstick, gloss etc.)?

it's best to throw it out and just get fresh stuff. over the years it can hold a lot of bacteria etc.

Cream or Compact Foundation: 18 months
Concealer: 12-18 months
Powder: 2 years
Blush and Bronzer: 2 years
Cream Blush: 12-18 months
Powder Eye shadow: 2 years Cream Eye shadow: 12-18 months
Eyeliner: 2 years
Liquid eyeliner: 3-6 months
Mascara: 3 months
Lipstick: 2 years
