13. Face Scrub
Ends in: A year
The average cost is $6.
Given the widespread use of face scrubs and other exfoliants in bathrooms, it should come as no surprise that the skincare sector has been expanding over the past few years. Due to the success of Unilever and other brands, the market captured nearly $5.6 billion in 2018.

When there are deals, it would be better to wait until the one on the bathroom sink runs out before stocking up. Face washes are only effective for a year before internal bacteria and yeast begin to grow. Although it may not be a pleasant idea, nobody wants to wash their face with that.
14. Shower Gel
Ends in three years
$4* is the average price.
Shower gel is a common item in many households, much like face scrubs and other bath and body items. Scents vary among brands, but even household names like Dove by Procter & Gamble fade over time.

Shower gel typically lasts three years. It should then be thrown away and replaced with a more recent, improved one. Fortunately for consumers, businesses never stop creating new goods that smell and look just as beautiful as the ones that came before them. In terms of replacement, it makes little sense at $4 or less.
