Cosmetics such aslipstick and eye-shadow must be replaced regularly. Save money by not purchasing a large variety of these items. Choose two or three lipstick or eye-shadow colors and use only these colors until it is time to replace them. If you have a variety of lipsticks and
eye-shadows in your cosmetic drawer you will need to throw out lipstick and eye-shadow on a regular basis, because you will not be able to use all of the items within the correct timeframe. Disposing of items that are only half-used is a waste of your money, so keep your selection of these items to a minimum.
