Hello! I’m starting to realize that I have a LOT too much makeup and that I will never be able to use it all. I am a “collector” and have accumulated a lot of palettes because “oh, that’s pretty!” but never use them. Waste of $$$. Now that I’ve settled down somewhat on a handful of brands that are my favorites, I’m ready to offload more. If one of them has been barely used (maybe swatched 1 or 2 times), is it acceptable to sell it and can it be disinfected? (Ex: How do I do this for Pro MUAs? If they carry pallets and use them on multiple clients, I can figure out the new brushes for each client but how do I disinfect the products between clients?) Pretend COVID is not there for the moment; I understand that this may change my question to a quick NO, but it’s something I’m interested in. Thank you
You can sell them on Mercari! It is one of the only selling apps that allows the sale of used makeup.
Check out r/makeupexchange 🙂
If you do list palettes for sale—I recommend Mercari; used makeup is prohibited on Poshmark—please be up front about shades having been swatched. So many sellers throw around the term “NIB” (new in box) inaccurately! When even one shadow has been swatched, the palette is no longer new.
I sell a lot on both platforms, so let me know if you have any questions.
