products that may expire fast(er than expected)

a lot of the time, skin and makeup products can be used after the expiration dates and/or period after opening symbol. but, sometimes, they might go bad before that.

here are some products that, either in my experience or the experience of several others, have been known to sometimes expire faster than they’re supposed to. note that this isn’t always the case, and that these products won’t always necessarily go bad fast!

Kosas Revealer Super Creamy + Brightening Concealer 1.5 C

Revealer Super Creamy + Brightening Concealer Kosas

i’ve heard complaints about many Kosas products going bad faster than expected, especially this concealer. their products seem like great quality, but i haven’t tried much from them for this reason.
Kosas Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation SPF 25 Very Light Neutral 100

Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation SPF 25 Kosas

some people even claim that the concealer & foundation smell weird/rancid right after they’re first opened. i’ve heard more complaints about Kosas expiring fast compared to other clean/natural beauty brands.
Tower 28 Beauty ShineOn Lip Jelly Chill

ShineOn Lip Jelly Tower 28 Beauty

i’ve also heard quite a few people claim that certain Tower 28 products have gone rancid sooner than expected. i really want to try their lip products, but i’ve been hesitant for this reason.
Tom Ford Ultra Shine Lip Color Nubile

Ultra Shine Lip Color Tom Ford

if you’re spending $59 USD on a lipstick, it shouldn’t go rancid after less than a year. but i’ve heard about this happening quite a few times with Tom Ford lipsticks. WTF?
NYX Cosmetics Butter Gloss Merengue

Butter Gloss NYX Cosmetics

anemone rated i had 3 that started to smell disgusting after 2 years. okay, these aren’t supposed to last that long according to the period after opening date, but i’m still including them because my other lip glosses have lasted longer.
Colourpop Super Shock Shadow Tassel

Super Shock Shadow Colourpop

some claim that their colourpop eyeshadow has gone bad faster than expected. i almost never see this claim about the brand’s other products, though.
e.l.f. cosmetics Lip Exfoliator Brown Sugar

Lip Exfoliator e.l.f. cosmetics

apparently this lip scrub can go bad fast. i’ve owned several of them, and i can’t speak for this as i used them all up extremely quickly. the formula has been updated, so i’m not sure if this is a problem with the new version.
