Cosmetics

Most often, cosmetic products that are sold in additional packaging suffer from the lack of an expiration date. It could be a pretty cardboard box. The most effective way to protect you from expired products is a rational approach to buying. You should not take a bunch of jars at once, the action of which is the same. Yes, the smells of different creams are different, but if they are both moisturizing, then get one this time, and when it ends - the second. Such a move, among other things, will mess up your house. But there are cosmetic products like lipstick. And here, for each occasion, you want something special, a color that will ideally match a specific image. So, several types of these products appear on the shelves. A permanent marker can save the situation. Write on each case the date when you should say goodbye to this or that product.
