Now that you're geared up to clean out your makeup bag, how about the rest of your routine? Try these simple resolutions to start the year off right.

You've recovered from the holidays, and you've made your resolutions. And if you're holding on to concealers with cracked caps, leaking foundations, slimy shine serums, and expired sunscreens, it's time to make another vow for 2013: Overhaul your beauty product stash stat. (And not to worry, it's actually going to be a lot more fun than you think.)

In fact, there are few rainy-day activities that I find more gratifying than dumping my bins of beauty products out onto my living room floor and reorganizing them. I start by dividing them into categories (skin, makeup, hair, etc.), and then I make piles, separating what's new, what's not so new, and what definitely needs to be thrown away.

Skip ahead to see which beauty products you should retire in 2013.

Getting rid of gunky old products is therapeutic -- and there's no better time than the beginning of a new year to take on the task. Not to mention that spring -- and all of the fun beauty trends that come with it -- is right around the corner, so you'll need to make room for more loot.

Here's my short list of what to toss -- from the unhygienic to the uncool.
