S/O makeup.. what's the oldest make up you have?

[dojo]

Tell me I'm not alone in keeping products past expiration. 

I generally use up foundations and other liquids within a reasonable period of time, but blushes and shadows are the immortal in my drawers.  The worst offenders for me are MAC products because they are both expensive and highly pigmented so I barely use product... and I definitely still use two blushes that I have had for... dun dun dunnnnn..... 12 years. I've hit pan on them both and there is just a small ring of product left on one.  It'll probably be completely used up by 2020 unless you guys shame me into tossing them.

I've had eye shadows since college probably, so 10+ years?

I have a blush I bought for my wedding seven years ago and have used maybe five times since.

I used to work at a Lancôme counter at Macy's in college so I had SO MUCH make up because we would get free stuff, boxes and boxes. I finally went through it all before we moved and got rid of almost everything since I've become way less adventurous with my makeup since having kids. I graduated from college in 2007 sooo a lot of it was pretty old!

I'd say powder stuff like blush and eyeshadow is fine for quite a while!

LOL I'm pretty sure I still have some stuff from high school...

Exactly the same. Blush, 7 yrs old, used sparingly.

My oldest product is my lipstick from my wedding day. I don't use it anymore, but I will never part with it.

I definitely have some eye shadows that are 4 years old that I still use.

I think circa 2005 I bought everything Bare minerals sells online on a whim

I hated it all but I refuse to throw away a few hundred worth of makeup I literately used maybe once

Last year I threw a hole mini garbage can of Clinique makeup away that you get in those bonus week kits It was a ton

I have a Mary Kay eyeliner that I'm guessing is 18+, but I still use it.
I also have a couple eyeshadows in the 10+ range.

I finally pitched a ton of old lipsticks in our move last year. I'm sure some of them were over 20 years old.

I've got nail polish from eons ago, and a blush from probably 9 years ago, but my eye shadows are more like 5 years old? I have a few older but I rarely use them, I just can't stand to part with them.

I'm sure some stuff is 10+ years old...same as teamhayes I think I bought some bare minerals eye shadows before I got married and never use them, but can't bring myself to toss them. I am no good with a brush, so it's a lot of work to use them!

[onehitwonder]

I definitely have ancient eye shadows.

I think the oldest I have is eyeshadow from my wedding.

Me too! It's a Clinique duo and I feel too sentimental to throw it out.
