It is time to prepare to fly and leave and to arrange for its beauty reserves of the next revision. It’s not just makeup trends that change seasonally, but in the fact, that the shelf life of cosmetics and usage period are not the same.

Eye shadow: are 4-6 months

We should stress that these six months – the ultimate term for cream shadows, dry, especially mineral, can serve you longer, up to a year.
