So, I have a bit of a hoarding problem. Before I had kids, there was really one of two things that made my heart skip a beat.  Expensive handbags (although I didn\u2019t have the money to buy them) and this: \"blog<\/a> Makeup. Luckily, I have a friend who shares my obsession (EMILY, YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE), and for many years we enabled each other during all those trips to Sephora and the Nordstrom MAC counter.  In fact, I even had birthday parties in my 20\u2019s that revolved around makeover\u2019s at Saks.  And as we left the store I would oh so subtly pass by the Dior counter and take a gander at the lovely ladies who stacked the shelves.  *Sigh* So the other day I was reading this article about the \u201cshelf life\u201d of makeup.  Ooops.  Apparently the max you should keep any makeup is 2 years, tops, and that\u2019s just powder.  Lipsticks and eye shadows have an even shorter lifespan \u2013 like, 3 MONTHS.  Well, that ruffled my hoarding feathers because\u2026gulp\u2026I\u2019ve had some of these goodies for over 10 YEARS.  And not that I use it all, mind you.  I\u2019ve just never met something sparkly that I didn\u2019t like. So I felt like it was probably time to let some of it go.  Sad face. \"blog<\/a> And let me just say, this doesn\u2019t even include the gargantuan nail polish collection I own \u2013 OR the bags upon bags of samples I threw out when we moved.  Clinique Bonus Time, anyone?? \"blog<\/a> Here\u2019s some good news though \u2013 MAC has a recycling program.  Did you know that?  You can trade in 6 of your (primary packaged, doesn\u2019t include pencils) items for 1 brand spankin\u2019 new lipgloss, lipstick, eye shadow, what have you.  Look at how green I am!!  I\u2019m trading in 24 pieces!!  I admit, little girl\u2019s clothing has taken over my life these past 4 years.  But I do still love a good stroll through Sephora and I ALWAYS buy new lipgloss palettes when MAC releases their holiday collection.  ALWAYS.  Which is like\u2026NOW!! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
