• How do I know expiration dates for my products?
• Generally speaking, the more moisture a product contains, and the closer it is applied to your eyes, the sooner it needs to be thrown out. Moisture-laden products will retain more bacteria, and of course, you don’t want a bacteria-filled mascara wand or eyeliner pencil to be right next to your eye. Here are the general guidelines for how long you can keep various cosmetic products, measuring from the time that you first use it:

• Foundation: 6 months to 1 year
• Lipstick, liner, and gloss: 1 year
• Brow pencils and eyeliner: 1 year
• Mascara: 3 months
• Liquid eyeliner: 3 to 4 months
• Blushes and other powder: 2 years
• Cream blushes: 12 to 18 months
• Eye shadow: 3 to 6 months

• How will I know when a product is restocked?
• We hate when products are out of stock as much as you do! The best way to stay notified is to sign up for the waitlist on the product page. Restock notifications are sent to those on the waitlist first.

• What is BB Cream? Compared to a foundation? 
• BB cream is short for 'beauty balm', and it's used to moisturize, protect, and even your skin tone.

If you find that you want a more full coverage look, Shine BB Cream is buildable without leaving your face feeling cakey.
