Shelf life of lipstick?

Whats the average shelf life of lipstick? Do you throw it away after a certain time even if there is a substantial amount left? or do you keep using it until its completely gone, even if it takes 3-5 yrs? Do lip glosses hold better or worse?

I'm going through my makeup and realize I have 20 tubes of lipstick, all great colors and dont know if i should toss them?

There's a little symbol that looks like a jar on most cosmetic products that says 6M, 12M, 24M that stands for how many months it is good for.

If you don't see it, lipsticks are usually 24M

Yea! It's super handy to look for, especially for things like foundation, that you don't use too much of at a time!
