#28: Expired Lotion
It’s time to talk about recycling gifts: we all do it, and we all had it done to us. When someone gives you something you don’t like and you know you’re never going to use, there’s no point in even opening the gift. Most of us just live it inside the wrapping at the back of the closet, until the day comes when we have the opportunity to recycle the gift.
We’re not encouraging gift recycling, but it has its advantages as well – if you’re not going to use it anyway, why throw it away and not let someone else enjoy it? And if that someone doesn’t like the gift either, they could recycle it as well, until it finds its right home. However, when recycling moisturizing lotions as gifts – it’s important to check the expiration date!
