Silk Naturals

I'm eyeing some of the to-be-discontinued lippies (namely, Figment and Fig Leaf), and was wondering what's the best way to keep them fresh for longer. I am still using the original ones I bought a couple of years ago, just thinking ahead.
I also have some duplicates that I need to store (keep misplacing Cayenne and Combustion, so now I have two of each).

I saw someone else inquiring about this somewhere on the forum, so thought of starting a new thread.
Thanks!

I've taken to keeping lippy in the fridge. Not the most original answer to your question but they do seem to last longer. I've got several which must be well over a year old if not nearly two years old and I noticed one was starting to turn, so I refrigerated them all. Since then, none of the others from the same time has shown any deterioration. I'm not sure if there may be any reason not to refrigerate them, perhaps extra cold temperatures might upset the formula? The experts will know. Meanwhile, it works for me. I'd hate to lose any more lippy and am concious about not buying too many at a time given their limited storage life.

I keep backups in the fridge too. Not in a drawer where there might be extra condensation — just on a shelf in a sandwich baggie. I also keep an eye on the humidity and adjust the dial accordingly.

My normal everyday lippies are kept in open glass bowls in my bedroom. Too warm and humid in the bathroom. No problems with turning after over a year.

I also put lippies in the fridge. I have a back of Rare Berry in there plus my SN skin care. I use the serums and AHA toner.

Fridge sounds good! I'll start storing them there until I hear otherwise. I'm already keeping my skin care in there, I can make a lil more room

Thanks for the input!

The fridge works...although the main enemy of lippies is oxygen (which is why we use the slim tubes- it keeps more air out than a regular lipstick shape). With the Kisser Slickers I don't worry as much because at least to me, they seem to have the longest shelf life.

Thanks, Karen!

Is the fridge good storing for the liquid lipgloss too?

Thanks!

You can try if you want to. I am not sure how much life it will add especially for the wands.
