Do you know the expiration on these items?

mattress, pillows, toothbrushes I replace as needed - it just depends on when they 'wear-out'. I don't wear lipstick so can't say on that one and 'make up kits' I only wear mascara, eyeliner, and blush - the first 2 I replace at least every 6 months and blush when it runs out.

I was told by the person that cleans my carpets that a matress can increase in weight by 50% over the life of 10 years because of mites. YUCK! A toothbrush every three months it should be replaced or when you see the bristles are getting worn. Make-up -- there was a show about this on TV (Tyra Banks or something) and I forget but it is like a couple years or something. Ditto for the lipstick.

I know on these items no expiration days are written. But i think we should change them after a certain period. Pillows and mattresses can be cleaned and sterilized. will change them when still the condition is bad. toothbrush should be changed atleast once in a quarter. make up should not be used after 2-3 yrs. same for lipsticks.

Mattresses are normally made for 15, 20 or 25 years but that really depends on how they are cared for. You should use a mattress pad, flip the mattress regulary and vacuum it to. I believe the rule of thumb on pillows is to fold it in half, if it stays that way, out it goes. If it immediately unfolds itself it is probably fine. Toothbrushes I think are suppose to be replaced after 2 months. Make up, if the colour changes, or it has a sour smell. Mascara should be replace every 4-6 months.

I think that they are all common sense things that is why there is no expiration date on them, for instance, if your bed breaks, or gets too uncomfortable, you should probably replace it! If your pillows go flat and get too dusty, you should probably replace them. If your toothbrush gets all bristley and fuzzy, you should replace it, although i have heard that you should replace your toothbrush every six months or so because of the bacteria growth that can buildup on it. yummy. Also make up, i dont wear it but i watch those shows like .. tyra banks sometimes and i hvae heard on there that you should replace your make up every 6 - 12 months because it can go back and start to cause you eye infections, like your eyeliner and mascarra. I am glad i dont wear that stuff.. have you ever heard how its made. ? ew. same with lipstick i guess. If it runs out or it gets crappy, time for a new one!

I don't think there's an expiration date for any of these. When they appear to old to be used again, or starting to wear out, you need a new item. For example when a toothbrush becomes soft and it's hairs are all scattered you need a new one etc

For me: 1. bed mattress - until I can feel the spring or it is too soft. 2. pillows - when it is too flat. 3. toothbrush - once a month. 4. make up kits - I am a guy so I do not know. 5. lipstick - same as no 4 above. There you go.
