Is it ok to wear expired makeup even though you barely use it?

I have makeup that was used only a few times but it passed the expiration date. I barely use them. I was thinking of throwing them out but i noticed that my mom has makeup that already expired but she still uses them. My liquid makeup (mascara, liquid eyeliner, foundation and concealer) aren't dried up. They still look exactly the way they did when i just bought them.

I guess it's alright, if you wear it and you don't notice any breakouts or irritation or anything. I think you're fine then. be on the lookout though, haha.

stick to the 3 month rule. if its been open for 3 months throw it out! it becomes a breeding ground for bacteria that can lead to eye infections and acne.. stay safe. get new stuff

wearing it can cause breakout and bacterial diseases that are underlying in the skin. Especially eye products!
Throw them out and spend the 50 bucks now instead of thousands in medical bills like my sister is doing!

I sometimes just end up beginning inexpensive and sampling several types. Do what fits your situation and Im pretty sure your instinct will be right. I read reviews at http://BrandsMakeup.com
