This sounds extremely unhygienic, I‘m intrigued 😂
Absolutely
Same😅♥️♥️
that's why I immediately clicked on this video 😂 I'm predicting it's going to have a lot of views
Now that I watched the video it looks like it's all overstock
@@Sofia-pu7bc what is it called
You should prank mama maples with a “return box” that’s really just full of stuff from around her house!
YES
She would probably know lol
This is a great idea 💡 👏 , MIA PLEASE 🙏 TRY THIS 🤣🤣 x
I feel like that would be really hard to do, she’d probably realize that all of her stuff is missing and then connect the dots really quick when she sees it all in the box
This is genius. You would almost have to send both parents on a weekend getaway then before she got home she would need to go to Mia’s house to film the video
hey, makeup artist here. Most makeup if it's sealed and has not been exposed to air will still be good for a few years. That's why instead of a date they have a stamp saying 24m or 12m and that stands for good for 24 months after opening or 12 months after opening.
There is some exception depending on how natural the product is.
What does it mean if the product is natural? Does it take longer to expire?
@@harshita357 the opposite - it expires quicker.
Searched the comments for this answer because I came here to say the same thing lol fellow makeup artist here.
Was just about to say this haha!
I think this is common knowledge, no need to be a makeup artist to be familiar..
I work at a beauty supply store and 95% of this is absolutely overstock IMO.
Not all stores do it but we usually damage out the USED items and it goes to a different facility. Overstock gets shipped out to third party sellers like this.
What if the returned product is sealed?
@@labonihira sometimes its kept but sometimes not because people also swap real product and return a counterfeit, some of which is convincing.
@@amandakesterson224 that's really sad
As someone that works at a drug store chain similar to Walgreens, IMO this is probably from a planogram reset. If it was overstock of things that just didn’t sell at a drug store, I would expect it to be a better variety of makeup. When checking our makeup for expired product, it’s typically one of this and one of that because you’re not going to get all of your L’Oréal tru match for instance on the same delivery, which leads to everything even in the same line of products having different expirations. If this is true, it’s also not shocking that some of the makeup is expired. Being a drug store, no one is really specialized in the category of makeup and so even employees who have honestly good intentions can get products messed up and miss a lot when checking dates or not understand what has to be rotated and what doesn’t. We typically find a decent amount of expired makeup when we do our resets too. This is just speculation from someone that works in the drug store industry. You might be right as well… who knows 🤷♀️
She looks like Soloist Somi 😮❤
Whenever Mia talks about all her allergies and sensitivities (like today's ear infection), I get impressed she doesn't live in a bubble and still lives life to the fullest. 😅
I'm the same and I wonder sometimes too. 🤔 🤣🤣🤣
I’m the same ngl
same hahaha!! and my younger sister too. life can be uncomfortable at times, but it is WORTH IT to shove my face into that kitty’s belly
I feel her tho cuz me too
For the nail polish, separation doesn’t mean it’s bad! I have nail polishes that I bought less than a year ago that separate. That’s why the bottles have the little ball, so you can shake it back up!
There's also nail polish thinner that can be used for even the extremely old and crusty nail polishes in case they're dry 🥰
I’m so glad you said this because I was nervous. Like I have nail polish from years ago and it never separated but the nail polish from like a year or two ago was separating and I didn’t know what to do because I keep all my nail polish together. I kept all the nail polish tho
@@alexkier2382 ⁸⁸
It's better for the polish & brush if you roll the bottle between your hands instead of shaking!!
@@alexkier2382 life hack, I've always just used a few drops of nail polish remover. Maybe terrible advice but 😅
Mia: sensitive and reactive to literally everything
Also Mia: I don't mind putting 12 year old lipstick on my face
I have an eye shadow palette that is 35 years old, but I haven't used it in probably 30 years. It was my first palette so I'm too attached to throw it away. How crazy am I to keep that but I am really into make-up.
@@janejones7638 woah does it look the same as when you bought it I’m curious
@@janejones7638 that is amazing! Maybe put a label on it saying old af don’t use. I would have loved to see my moms old makeup
@@janejones7638 eye shadow (not the liquid or cream versions, of course) doesn't actually expire per se. It's gonna work just fine, even if it's like 15 yo. It usually does lose its quality and brightness over time, but not a whole lot. So as crazy as it may sound, you should be good to go, if you ever want to use it😅
I throw away my old make up when ever I get new so I don’t have to worry about !! I wear makeup sometimes but I am not a everyday makeup women !!
I also don’t get rid of makeup unless it looks expired 🤣 I still have my first eyeshadow palette I bought from Too Faced in 2015. Still works like a charm!
OMG I think I have a 20 year old Chanel eye shadow palette. Like I'm ever getting rid of Chanel!
I am the same. If it smells “off” it goes out. I was horrified by what I threw out when I moved. I was addicted to Temu for a while and tried a bunch of their makeup. I was super impressed with all the eyeshadows but nothing else, but loved all the fake nails.
Re: the leg makeup, I was a professional bellydancer for 7 years and part of a competitive troupe. Since many of our leg slits (often double leg slits) went up to the high heavens, our director got us to wear leg makeup. It was always super weird to look down and have your legs look like you're wearing pantyhose and be super smooth - freaked me out a bit honestly LOL.
I started wearing it when competing with color guard and I LOVED the way it made my legs look! Like a mix between the way panty hose make your legs look and an amazing tan without the fake mess. They were comfortable for me, didn’t run or make my legs feel hot. Honestly the only down side was that it was kind of messy to apply, it got all over stuff if you weren’t careful but once it was on it was ON and it had to be basically showered and scrubbed off. It’s a great product in my opinion
Do u know if the airbrush legs actually worked bc my mom is super insecure about the veins on her legs for some reason and I wanna get her that to help her feel more confident
That nail product-Nailtique?- are usually nail treatments, not colored polish & can be pricey.
Re: leg 'makeup' ...obviously Mia isn't a dancer or beauty contestant or a swimwear model. Spray tans are fine but lots of those coverup/makeup products hides viens, bruises, scars or discoloration and really can make your skin flawless
Ive used it many times and its great! @brittanyault9084
Women's shelters are always great options to donate unopened/unused makeup and beauty products to! I know they often appreciate it for getting ready for things like job interviews
THIS!!!
That’s what I was going to say too 😊
they don't need leg makeup lol
Yes, in the US there's an organization called Dress for Success that helps these women to prepare for job interviews. They can use all of that. My sister was a career woman so when she passed away (quite young), we donated all her suits to them.
J C Claire Yes Mia often says she donates to Women's Shelters so she got there already lol.
Women's shelters usually love getting makeup donations. These women often don't have access and like to have it for interviews or even just daily pick-me-ups so my vote is for it to all go there. The expiration date is for after opening and the shelter will decide what is okay to donate and what isn't if you aren't sure.
I totally agree!
U can do a lil patch test too, im thinkin, on ur arm to see if its expired or bothers ur skin, much rather there then on my sensitive face👩cheeks😆where it would sting🐝 if I was allergic🤧 or it was expired😝. 😇🦫🙏🏻💫🐲🦚😊
The Airbrush Legs isn't just for legs either. I'd say anything but face. Women who've
been abused sometimes have scars and this stuff helps. I don't have tattoos so I don't know if it'll cover them.
she payed for this so its up to her to decide whether she gives it away or if she keeps it
@@makemecry6604 Well yes, it is her business and the company paid for it, but part of her online brand is to do a LOT of donations, so I'm sure she likes the suggestions.
I'm pretty sure the expiration dates only apply to opened products. If something is sealed I don't think it can go bad in a span of a couple of years
It definitely can depending on the ingredients. No makeup should be used after a year. I am sorry but no. Even if it's sealed. That doesn't rly apply to it, it's about if the ingredients decay even if it's sealed
Like have you seen unopened nail polish after a year? The ingredients are all messed up and work less idk man.
@@Atlasintokyohave to disagree on nail polish. I have polish I bought in the 80's and it still works fine. I have over 500 bottles collected over the years and a quick shake and they work fine. So with polish as long as it's stored in a cool dry place it is fine IMO.
@@Atlasintokyoyou can also use a tiny bit of acetone or thinner to revive dried nail polish.
@@Atlasintokyomeh - I only care about expiration on clean beauty (theyre usually very low on preservatives) and sunscreen. Outside of that if it smells and looks fine it’s free game.
I used to work at Walgreens for 10 years. It looks like a box of what were called "call ins". We would scan the products that went on clearance,but did not sell for credit back to the store to make room on the cosmetic wall for new items coming in for the year. We would put them in totes and send back to the warehouse and from there we were always told they would be sold to like Tj Maxx or a discount place like that.
Walgreens gang! ❤
The products with BR on it stands for Black Radiance. It is sold at Walmart, Target, CVS and Walgreens here in America and is catered to women with darker skin tones.
Interesting!
thank u for informing us ! i noticed a lot of the foundations were also for darker complexion which only leads me to believe a lot of companies still aren’t giving justice for the black community
You beat me to it!😉
Just came to comment this as well! I remembered from my days of Walgreens inventory
@@renr4056 how does that lead you to believe that? she didn’t purchase the shades available, she got a RETURNED products mystery box, there’s more shades they just aren’t there ? wtf
The BR is called Black Radiance. It was one of the first brands made with darker skin tones in mind. I used that powder when I first started wearing makeup in the early 2000s.
This comment needs to be at the top 👍🏻
Was just about to comment this, it’s probably not as common in Canada
I wondered if it’s only sold in certain areas, it’s sold like everywhere even in Targets in Baltimore, where I live
Interesting! I’ve never heard of it but I’m pale asf. Love that they were doing that early ❤️
I was going to say... Black Radiance lol!! I see it in drugstores a lot.
yay another person who isn't ashamed to admit they don't care about expiration dates on cosmetics!😍🙈😂
fr, i have a lipstick that my mom got when she was my age making it over 20 years old lol
@@zomb7e_samee but with eyeliner
Yeah Im the same. As long as there is no problem with it on, it can be used here. ^w^
I have so much old stuff! I do get rid of old mascara and anything that smalls off but some stuff still seems pretty fresh even years over the exp. date.
It's not good tho, and don't share makeup you can get a life long staph infection I am so serious
The Maybelline Radiant is my absolute favorite. Most of this looked like overstock or items that didn't sell before a new stock or setup came through. I worked at Rite Aid and they returned makeup like this ALL THE TIME! The makeup would be perfectly fine. We actually had very little returned by customers.
I worked at Target and it was the same kind of situation. It was really nice working in the beauty department bc they’d give us overstock items for free to try it out, that way we could recommend to customers if we liked it. 😊
Hey Mia I work in a beauty department in Canada. It looks like a lot of the products are products that have been discontinued from stores (a lot of the lashes, foundations and nail polish) or that have had packaging changes (like the L’Oréal true match). Looks like there’s a lot of random returns as well. Im glad these products are getting a second life!
I came to say this, the ardell lashes she got they discontinued them and i've been looking all over for them. They were the best ones too in my opinion.
@@MichellePinsky We still have them at my US store!
“It’s awful and I’m not going to reward myself for bad behavior” 😂😂😂😂😂 babeee you’re so funny with out trying 😂
✨naturally hilarious✨
You should try making clay earrings (: I’d love to see you make little fruit ones or cute little animals or something!
I agree! Or any clay jewelry. That would be fun to watch
you really manifested the Pinterest earrings video huh
We need a podcast with you and Mama Maples! You can call it “Oh Mama-Mia”!
😯
I NEED a podcast from you and your mom. It can be called “Mamma and Mia”
BRILLIANT
Omg yes!
Or just "MAMMA-MIA 🤌"
That Sally’s airbrush legs is the BEST!!! It’s perfect for people who typically spray tan, when you didn’t have time go to the salon, it’s instant color that comes off in the shower! It’s like a “lotion” but like a foundation in that it totally evens your skin! In a pinch I have also used it as face-foundation when I forgot it on a trip! I’m sure you’re not supposed to but hey, you gotta do what you gotta do! But it definitely shouldn’t sound like water lol- that one’s GOTTA be expired! If you try it out be sure to wash your hands after 😊
Omg, I tried it out before I went to my son's wedding, HUGE MISTAKE!! It's orangey, messy, and came off on everything. It ruined my towels. I didn't end up wearing it to the wedding of course and it went right in the trash! I found the best product to look tan is Tan Towels. They're awesome. They don't make u look orange, goes on easy without any mess, doesn't rub off on anything but the best part is it's very natural looking! You should try them out, I think you'll find that they're way better than Sally Hansen's.
My one coworker uses it on her face as well so she doesn’t have to use self tanner
I worked at Target (in the beauty department) and this is how we’d receive our trucks!! Just a million different brands/products smashed into one box 😂
It’s also really funny seeing all of the stuff you received is stuff we ALWAYS had in overstock 😂
Omg hiiii I work beauty in Target ! Also yeah this gave me anxiety bc I think I have to push it all out in time lmaooo
I agree on the expiration dates! I use makeup until it's bad, not until it 'expires', to me, it's too expensive to throw away while it's still fine, especially eyeshadow.
"The shelf life of an unopened polish can last up to 5-8 years, and after opening the polishes last up to two years," Ling Lin says. Forgetting to screw on the top tightly or exposing your bottles to veritable temperatures can also speed up the expiration process.
That's so helpful.
Adding a drop or two of pure acetone (nail polish remover) can extend the shelf life and bring chunky dried nail polish back to life!
“No expiration date.. so they’re good”
Has the same energy as
“No price tag.. so it’s free”
😂😂😂
I know Mia sometimes starts a video talking right away, but when she starts with "Everyone" with her hands spread it gives me so much happiness because it reminds me of all the years we've been watching her and she still does it! 😭♥️ Here from 2018, and can't wait to see what else she achieve!
The Rimmel “liquid lipstick” is actually a cream eyeshadow. Hopefully you realize before Sunday’s video because I would like to see you try it!
And the BR she held up with the Rimmel is a color corrector not liquid lipstick!
I’ve been watching this girl for so long and she’s definitely came a long way, keep going, keep showing your personality, keep being yourself . 🦋
'This girl' is a 22 year old adult woman with a fiancé...
@@kaymo225 I thought you were a defensive fan, but the entirety of your recent comment history on Mia’s channel is negative. I just wanted to say, I hope you are ok. I am sorry for whatever is going on with you that you feel like you need that kind of outlet to repeatedly express your disapproval of things that are of no consequence to you. If nothing is going on and I am entirely off base, maybe reevaluate whether you should continue watching and reading the comment section of someone whose content seems to be unenjoyable for you.
@@daninickel WOW! Big props to you girl! Your response to that Negative Nancy comment was pure class and compassion/empathy. The fact that you even took the time to express sympathy and understanding to someone that went out of their way just to be rude and negative to someone else is very commendable. Respect! 🙌🙌👏👏
Mia savagely going after Black Radiance: “It looks like something my grandma would use”
Me knowing it’s one of the only drugstore brands that matches my skin tone and doesn’t have a white cast:😳
It’s okay Mia, I know you don’t mean any harm 😂
Lol yesss i recognized it immediately
I'm light-skinned Caucasian, and I still immediately knew what it was. Had a bit of cringe at her comment, but I know it wasn't malicious.
you scored on the lashes!!! And you ARE your Grandma!! so cute, you talk like her, your energy and everything. love it! she was so excited 🥰
“Returned” does not necessarily mean that they were returned by customers a lot of stores return products to their distribution centers or to wherever they go because they’re making room for new products and they’re not gonna sell those anymore so my bet is that most of these never actually passed through customer hands. I used to work for Walgreens so I know for a fact we would do boxes and boxes of returns straight from the shelf to make room for new things.
I won a Milani box of $800 in 2013, and then another one of $400 the same year, I still have part of that makeup unopened. I haven't bought blushes, bronzers and nail polishes for years!
You realize makeup expires right? You're using 8 year old makeup. That's disgusting.
@kaymo225 Judge yourself and mind YOUR business
@@kaymo225 so let’s all think for a moment. The hazard of experience products is bacteria. If the product isn’t open can it become contaminated. No. Just like food has a sell by date (out of store), best by date (best results), and an entirely different date that’s variable for eating makeup doesn’t just expire especially if it don’t open.
@@kaymo225 someone’s mad they didn’t win the giveaway and save themselves hundreds of dollars….
@@kaymo225 Cosmetics expire after opening, not before. Which is why the expiration date isn't a date but instead a "6m, 12m, or 24m" meaning 6, 12, or 24 months after opening.
I’m so in love with her and her way of not caring about expired make up because to be honest I’m the same way if I bought it I’m using it
Hi I’m a makeup artist and I worked in cosmetic retail for years, my rule of thumb is if it’s a liquid/cream consistency go by the expiration date because some ingredients in them can go bad even if unopened (mainly more natural brands), not all though. You’ll know if it’s really bad, it’ll smell or look bad. Usually the symbol on the back is the POA date, so how long it’s good after the product is open. (POA= period after opening). A POA must be included on products with a shelf life of 30 months or more, POA labels is the little jar that’ll have like 10m (10 months) on it.
Any product that has a lifespan of less than 30 months has a BBE (Best Before End of date) it’s an hourglass or egg timer kinda symbol.
I have some back up stock of certain liquid products that have pretty long shelf lives if unopened, then once opened I go by the expiration on the packaging. generally speaking powders will last way longer, since they lack moisture (for the most part), and you have more leniency with the expirations. I only follow strict expirations dates rules for my kit makeup for client use though, which is completely separate and always cleaned. On myself I’m more lenient
Also some of that makeup can be just packaging changes, like the brands updated the look of something or it could be from stores that closed down, so let’s say a cvs closes, the staff will pack up boxes and it can be shipped to resale warehouse and bought from either other stores (Marshall’s, tk/tj maxx, etc) or it can be shipped to another store location, like another cvs in this scenario. Any makeup that doesn’t go through this process for a store closure most likely gets burned or tossed(depending on ingredients), this also happens with returns/damages in places like ulta, Sephora, mac, etc so if something doesn’t work for you, give it to someone else AFTER CLEANING IT PROPERLY. Also get samples if possible, it helps reduce waste.. I worked for a brand that had retail locations, it closed permanently due to covid and about half was either sent back for online sales/resale/donations, the rest was pretty much burned by the company.
And BR is black radiance beauty!
I love that both my 7 year old daughter and I (37) love watching your videos! And if I’m being honest I pretty sure your mom has helped me heal from emotional traumas that my own mother instilled in me as a kid. Having her loving, bubbly caring energy around is something I used to be bitter about but now I’m excited to see her 💕 both of you are helping me to trust people again! Thank you 🙏 again and again!
That’s black radiance one of the first make up brands that was targeted for black girls. For a while it was the only inclusive brand other than covergirl. It’s like the Black girl version of elf and wet and wild ❤️ love those products too
Don't feel bad, Mia.. I have makeup that's super old too. They still get the job done, I'm the only one wearing it, I've never had a bad reaction to them and I hardly wear makeup anyway, so I really don't see the point in throwing it out.
The dream radiant foundation is one of my favorites!! I used airbrush legs when I did pageants & also for my senior pictures and other photoshoots!
Would love to see you do a 'Recreating my old makeup look' using some of the products you recognised from when you first started doing makeup! Could do fashion too for extra nostalgia :)
I used to work for a company that did the rests for when brands changes their marketing. This box looks exactly like our discontinued or remove from display boxes would look like. It's the right time of year for refresh too!
Giiiirl the airbrush legs thing is actually amazing for summer!! I use self tanner but if it’s faded and going out wearing a skirt or dress is makes your legs look nice tan and hides any imperfections 🤩 wish I watched this sooner I would’ve taken them all🥹🤣
Hey Mia!
Sometimes “returns” aren’t really customer returns.
My husband worked for a shipping company and often if even 1 item in a full skid is damaged, the receiver will deny the load and “return” it to the supplier. Some suppliers would then sell the damaged loads to a wholesale liquidator.
I can confirm, stores sometimes refuse pallets of goods that were damaged during transport (if it's just a few products, they keep it and only return the damaged products, if it's large quantities, they refuse the entire pallet). At my job, we can buy these returned products at very very low prices, then the company donates the entire amount to charity (we also use them in the office, we sell hygiene/cleaning products).
Too bad no one told my Walmart this when I used to work Dairy by myself and would receive a palette of busted eggs to sift through 😭😭😂
Love this kind of videos!! Can’t wait for the full face.
_Sidenote_
I use my makeup until it’s finished, usually way past the expiration date… so 🤣 no judgment, girl! Also, in my opinion, regular nail polish never expires, it just starts to dry out after a while, just add nail polish thinner (dunno if it’s the right name, but it’s something similar to acetone sold for this purpose) and it’s good as new.
I've done this with polish, chanel polish goes thick really quickly, but if u add too much it does go weird 😅
@@vanessamartin5522 I like to go a few drops at a time, shake it and decide if it needs more.
Don't add acetone lol it will dissolve it but polish thinner is a different product so you'll need that specifically but yes it usually does the job!
Hey Mia! I was on a college dance team, and we all carried the Airbrush Legs with us for performances and games. We would used it spray tan touch ups and it actually works very well!! and you could even use it for a quick all over full body tan when you didn’t quite have time to get a spray
love your videos💖
I used to use it in highschool hahaha anytime I wore a dress or even spray just where there were holes in my jeans being so pale 😂🥲
Your videos literally are the only thing keeping me sane during exam season! I'm finally finishing my degree this year and just wanted to thank you for seriously helping me stick through these past years in school! Your videos are always my mid-study break "treat" :)
I love that her intro is “hey everyone so today we are doing a very exciting video” 😂😂 it just shows she’s as excited for these videos as us 💕 we love you babeeeee💕
Can confirm a good chunk of the stuff in these boxes went “salvage” essentially meaning a store isn’t selling it or it’s discontinued by the brand. With the stuff that’s opened and used it gets put into a different bin because you can’t sell/donate a used returned product. And when store reset their isles stuff typically goes clearance then salvage after a couple weeks to months
You work at target huh
Ahhhh the leg makeup is THE BEST!! I've got bruisey, scarred legs, and absolutely swear by that stuff for fancy outings when I don't want to wear tights!!
The green cover girl mascara is my all time favorite, I literally have three in my possession at the moment 😂 mascara is all I ever wear though so I just keep one in my car, one in my bag, and one at home
I used to carry airbrush legs in my kit when I worked in pageants because a lot of girls would have patchy fake tan and that product evened it out nicely. If you buff it in with a large soft body brush, it can look really lovely. But they did reformulate it about 10 years ago so it's not as orange as a lot of people remember.
Edit: also I think most of these were overstock and not returns. Most returns get thrown away even if they don't appear to be opened. You should do a video trying some of the products (that don't appear to be opened!)
Separated nail polish is totally fine. I have over 200 polishes in a collection and sometimes they separate within a month of owning them - its honestly can just be the way that particular color formula sits over time.
I love the legs makeup in medium .. I use them alot in the summer with shorts because I usually have bruises on my legs and they cover it really well
ugh I love you Mia, you’re so silly and I’m genuinely obsessed with your personality. You make me smile!
I wish I lived closer… you know I’d be checking the goodwill/thrifts WEEKLY to hopefully get lucky from one of your hauls hehehe ❤️
I've worked with food, I've also done a beauty therapy course. An expiry date is to protect the manufacturer not the consumer, if u eat something past that date & u get sick, u cannot sue them. That's the main reason they are there. Lots of people waste SO much food these days because of expiry dates, if its looks ok & smells ok, it should be fine, raw meat & fish u can tell when it's off cause of the smell. Too many starving people in the world & we all waste so much 😪
Um...yeah, just no for most fresh food.....while its true expired food is usually ok if its packaged, foods like chicken and milk, by the time their smell and/or texture have changed are WELL past the point where they can make you sick. NEVER ignore the use by date on meat or dairy.
@@heatherrowles9930 Yeah, I have to agree. Those are the most dangerous when they go bad, so any meat and dairy should be treated with precaution. Others may loose the enjoyment factor when they go past their expiration dates, but these can actually cause life threatening situations. So while we could eat dry pasta past their expiration date for example, we should not do that with meat and dairy. I don't even buy meat products if it's less than 2 days close to expiration, just in case. Maybe that is unnecessary precaution, but at least I feel safe.
LOL I have eaten cultured dairy products (greek yoghurt, sour cream etc) *months* after their best before date. If I have a slight doubt I use it cooked, like in baking. There is currently a forgotten product dated 25.11.2021 waiting for baking in my fridge😅😂
If it's pasteurised milk products it's pretty safe to trust your senses, raw milk is a bit more dangerous.
We do have especially low bacterial count in raw milk in my country... by law less than 100 000 CFU/ml, in truth around 6 000 CFU/ml.
Meat also depends on the standards of the industry just like milk... if for example _salmonella_ is a known danger in your country, it's a good idea to trust the expiracy dates on meat.
The whole day I was like "I really could use a Mia video right now", thank you Mia :3
(It's 7pm here)
Btw, I don't check the expiration dates of my make up either. When the texture is getting weird, that's usually the moment I decide to throw something away.
same!
same!! if it smells weird or the texture is strange it’s time to throw it out, however if it’s “expired” but still works great then why would i waste it 😭
@@jaqsre exactly! Expiration dates are just an guideline for the users. Lipsticks are usually expiring pretty "fast".
@@mulisamudau8425 WOOO AS all,of
I’m so glad I found your channel, it was fun to watch, can’t wait for more videos like this. Love your personality 👍❤️
This reminded me of your videos where you got some mystery boxes, I just love your enthusiasm and joy discovering it all, that is amazing!!! 😊❤️🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Majority of the time the expiration is for after opening, so as long as the seal is still there it’s should be fine. But separation doesn’t necessarily mean it’s gone bad. It usually happens with foundation and nail polish because the oils and stuff naturally don’t stay together. But once you open those things it’s safe to follow the date
Omg, when Mama Maples shows up, the happiness level explodes!! I love her!
This L’Oréal concealer is PERFECT! The one w the pink and silver lid
The nail polish definitely isn't bad yet.. also, if your nail polish starts to get really clumpy and no longer smooth, all you need to do is add a drop or two of acetone (or nail polish remover) and viola! Thank you for this video Mia, hope your time with your family was memorable!! 💖 😊
That leg makeup is actually genius. I use it all the time! I’m wearing it right now. Try it!! Love your videos! ❤
22:11 - the BR brand is Black Radiance which focuses a lot on making products for people with darker skin tones!
The airbrush legs is an amazing product! I uses it for pageants back in the day it never budged!
Love the Sally hansen pure nail varnish! So cute and so good!
That airbrush legs product is actually great lol. But it’s like something you’d use once a year for a formal event or something. You should try it you’d like it! Mix it in with some moisturizer otherwise it looks too fake like Barbie legs.
I work for Walgreens and these products came from our cosmetics wall reset. Also, the Loreal foundations were from a display shipper and non-basic to our store. Basically, these products were taken out of the planogram and will no longer be carried at Walgreens. We sent them out as a call-in and were shipped out of the store. Usually make-up containing sunscreen have expiration dates, most have lot numbers. If the bottle or package has a picture of a circle with an arrow inside look to the right of it. It will say 12 or 24 months, this means the make-up is good for that amount of time after it is opened . I hope this helps to explain that these are not customer returns but discontinued items.
Please try any of the products that are in your shade!! I’m so excited to see how different foundations/powders/blushes will look on you. You are so talented at makeup! Loved every second of this video, please do more makeup unboxing 😍😍
Leg makeup is great for dancers and stage performers! I use it when I have bruises or something I need to cover for a performance, or to even out a tan.
Mia! Make Up doesn't have a specific expiration date. 😁 On the little open jar symbol is mostly written "3M, 6M or 12M" which means it's good for use for 3, 6 or 12 months after you opened it first or removed the seal.
That Rimmel product you sectioned with concealers is actually a liquid eyeshadow!! I have that product in a different shade but it’s actually a pretty good liquid eyeshadow not concealer!
i was thinking she could always use some of the powders that are not her skin tone as eyeshadows, but hey ! She has one ! (still an option though)
I love that they have such a range of foundation shades ❤
I LOVE the airbrush legs 😍and they are even waterproof.. if it’s dry than they don’t even mess up your cloth .. and they have a little shine in the texture ✨it’s an amazing product …
Ahh! There’s no better way to spend a quiet Friday at work than watching your content! 💕
I'm also watching from work!! ^_^
mia!! falscara is so amazing for a more natural lash - i wear them almost every day and the ardel magnetic is perfect for a more dramatic lash
I can see your mom being so excited about all this makeup!
Loved this video, so interesting
Made that comment before seeing the end lol😂
I actually really love the airbrush legs🤣 I use it often! You should definitely try it!! 💖
Nice haul Mia, I would be interested to see how the air-brushed leg stuff works and if it's legit a good product especially for fairer-skinned people with bright blue veins lol. As for donation stuff, I probably wouldn't use anything that isn't in original packaging or anything that is open especially if it's items you use on your face, eyes, and lips.
If you ever wanna know how much a package weighs, look at the label! Here in the states alot of our labels state the shipping weight on the shipping label 🥰
Here in Canada too, i Just think she Didnt know about that
Oh and those Kiss Acrylic glue on nails are the best. I use them in the petite or real short size and they are awesome and so natural looking. By far my favorite.
Impress Nails are fabulous! I use them all the time. Prep is everything!! Use more than one alcohol pad to prep the nails and use nail glue under the adhesive already on the nail and it will stay for 1 to 2 weeks! 😁
Loved that elf brow kit too! Also really liked the true match lumi foundation.
I swear in the UK it’s proper hard to return makeup unless it’s severely damaged
agree! it's just not something we do here & I think it's crazy that it's returned in other countries
And even so it has to be unopened.
Very true, we don't do it, shops won't take it back for hygiene reasons, I was surprised that they do it in other countries.
I'm not in the UK but you can't return make up here either
it really is!! it's been easier during covid because there's been no testers to test shades and finishes so they're willing to accept returns but in general it's so hard!
I love the lumi foundation I've kept it for a long time before and it works just fine
This was so fun and interesting to watch!! Can't wait for "using the makeup" video 🙂
Hey mia! Where did you get your cute little strawberry pillow? I’m literally obsesseddddd
i was hoping we’d get a beauty return box soon! mia always risking her skin with these expired products 😂
I love the true match makeup. This is so cool i would love to do this someday. Also love your videos Mia!!
Sally Hanson airbrush legs is amazing!! Looks like something from the 80's but you need to try it. You get it as a spray too & it's the only thing I use on my legs to cover my scar & it's flawless 🦵
I got so excited every time I saw products I use/have used. XD Great content as always
You got so lucky mia. A lot of things in there are the ones I really wanted to own. And it's kinda expensive here in my country. It's a good deal actually. Thank you so much for entertaining is with great content!
Hello Mia and everyone watching I hope that you have a wonderful and blessed weekend and I love these returns videos 💝💖💝
i feel like foundation is the most sensible return, because a lot of people(including me) don't know their shades and order the wrong one
I can’t wait for sundays video!!! i am so excited to see you try them all out☺️☺️
For me with nailpolish as long as it mixes again when I shake it, I go for it... with a lot of other things, I don't care if it's expired as long as it's either still in it's sealing or something I bought and only use for myself, hahaha!
Hey, Mia, have you thought about donating some of the makeup in the box to a local theatre group? They often are on a very small budget, and also probably wouldn't care if some of it might be expired. This was some years ago, but my doctor actually told me that the FDA required expiration dates on everything that we use in or on our bodies but that some items really are good for much longer as long as they remain unopened. You can check to see with your doctor if that is still the case. Sincerely, Kathy B.
In the small town that I live there used to be a shop that would buy overstock palettes and returns and resell them. It was a really fun place to look. When they went out of business you could buy an empty HUGE box and fill it with nail polishes. Now the town thrift store is over run with people having decluttered those a few years later!
I WANT IT ALL!!:
