From the moment a mascara or a face cream that contains plant-derived substances is opened, it is a petri dish for bacteria. But stickers like these from Once Opened Beauty Expiration Kit can help keep track of when it's time to say goodbye!</div> <bR> <div> <U>Once Opened Review</U></div> <div> by <A HREF="http://thebeautycounter.blogspot.com/2010/03/once-opened-review-and-giveaway.html" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://thebeautycounter.blogspot.com/201"><U>The Beauty Counter</U></A></div> <bR> <div> As a beauty reviewer and aspiring make-up artist, Once Opened is a must have. I'll admit that I have kept make-up and skincare products longer than I should had. A lot of products that I use don't have an expiration date, and some of the ones that do wears off quickly. I am able to write the date I open a product on the self-laminating labels with the ultra fine point permanent marker that is provided in the Once Opened Kit. The kit even comes with a Life Expectancy Guide, which lets you know when you should kick certain beauty products to the curb. </div> <bR> <bR> <div> <U>A Solution for Expired Make-up</U></div> <div> by Vemayca of <A HREF="http://www.vemayca.com/index.php" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.vemayca.com/index.php"><U>Vermayca Cosmetic Bags</U></A></div> <bR> <div> What I love most about being an entrepreneur are the fabulous people I get to meet and all the wonderful products that I get introduced to along the way. </div> <bR> <div> A couple of weeks ago, I wrote about my make-up purge. I clearly wasn’t the only one to have expired make-up in my cosmetic bag. I heard from several customers and friends who tossed their expired make-up after reading my blog post. Little did I know that I would hit such a nerve. My blog entry served to remind women that make-up doesn’t last forever. </div> <bR> <div> A Vemayca Facebook fan recommended Once Opened. It is an expiration kit for beauty products that includes 24 self-laminating labels so you can “mark-up your make-up” with the date the product is opened. After visiting the website and exchanging emails with the Founder, Lorraine Emerick, I decided to purchase a kit. </div> <div> The 24 labels come in a wonderful box with mini pink permanent marker (very cute). I loved the cosmetic life expectancy guide that is included. It has everything you need to organize your cosmetics and ensure you never again use make-up that is expired.

Most likely....no, they are not.</div> <bR> <div> But I can't just throw away perfectly good cosmetics. That's like throwing money down the drain! Yet I want to know if that mascara is over 3 months old, because if it is, I definitely need to toss it. I wear contact lenses too, so it is especially important to be extra careful with eye makeup. But unless I keep my receipts, it's impossible to remember exactly when I purchased an item. What's a girl to do?</div> <bR> <div> <I><B>Once Opened</B></I><I><B> </B></I>has solved this problem for us. Their Beauty Expiration Kit contains 24 self-laminating labels, a permanent marker, and a Guide to Beauty Products and Their Life Expectancy. Now it's easy to know when a product was opened because you just stick a little label on it, use the marker to record the date, place a piece of laminate on top to seal it, and voila, you will always know how old that product is.</div> <bR> <div> I received a <B>Once Opened </B>kit to review, and I was instantly impressed with the professionalism of the company and product. 24 labels may not sound like many, but when you start putting them on your new cosmetic purchases they go a long way. (I wouldn't recommend trying to back-track to label old cosmetics unless you know without doubt when a product was purchased and first opened.) So I can see this little kit lasting for a year or longer.</div> <bR> <div> It's a great idea, and I'm glad someone thought of it! <B>Once Opened</B><B> </B>has a website with lots of great information about the risk of infection and the importance of labeling and dating your cosmetics.</div> <bR> <bR> </tD> </tR> </TABLE></B></I></div> <bR> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="748" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#FFFFFF" BORDERCOLORDARK="#FF9999" FRAME="VOID" RULES="COLS" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 261 ><NOBR><div> <B>Become a fan of </B><I><B>Once Opened, LLC</B></I><B> </B></div> <div> <B>on Facebook. </B></div> <div> <B>Share your ideas and we will </B></div> <div> <B>post them on the website !</B></div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="1" CELLPADDING="2" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="289" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#FFFFFF" BORDERCOLORDARK="#FF9999" FRAME="BOX" RULES="COLS" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 121 ><NOBR><div> <I>'</I><A HREF="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Once-Opened-LLC/126884218299" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Once-Opene"><U><I><IMG SRC="7296f4a0.jpg" border=0 width="111" height="74" ALIGN="LEFT" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></I></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <A HREF="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Once-Opened-LLC/126884218299" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Once-Opene"><U><IMG SRC="0d4966a0.jpg" border=0 width="150" height="106" ALIGN="LEFT" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></U></A></div> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> </NOBR></tD> <tD VALIGN=TOP><NOBR><div> <B>Visit Us at Our 3D Store in </B></div> <div> <B>Second Life</B><FONT SIZE="5" COLOR="#FF9999" FACE="Arial" > </FONT></div> <div> <A HREF="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Incubator%20Island/36/225/24" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Incubator%20"><U>http://slurl.com/secondlife/Incubator%20Island/36/225/24</U></A></div> <div> <A HREF="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Incubator%20Island/36/225/24" TARGET="_top" TITLE="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Incubator%20"><U><B><IMG SRC="72ac8900.jpg" border=0 width="200" height="144" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></B></U></A></div> <bR> </NOBR></tD> </tR> </TABLE></div> <bR> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="4" CELLSPACING="0" WIDTH="650" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#00BF00" BORDERCOLORDARK="#000000" FRAME="BOX" RULES="ALL" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP COLSPAN=2 HEIGHT= 153 WIDTH="207"><div> Always refer to product manufacturer for proper storage and product life.
