Please tell me you don't do that with food or beverages! People have gotten pretty sick eating/drinking things that looked/smelled good. If in doubt.... toss it out!

No, I almost go overboard on food. If it's past the ex date, I toss it. Sometimes even before if I think it's a bit off.

But lotion is a new one.

I know about make up. Tho I still have a few eyeliner pencils from Estee that are quite a few years old in a discontinued shade that I still use on occasion. They are fine. But I do get fresh mascara every few months.

I really am paranoid now. Plus I'm thinking of all the money I'll be throwing away by pack-ratting for a rainy day.... I wonder what else? Bubble bath? Dusting powder? Better not. I have some expensive powder I save for special occasions. Perhaps this is a clue that life is short. Use it up instead of saving it?
