In reply to elisio. Elisio, usually the expiration date starts from the day it is opened. But if something has a clear packaging and is stored in front of big windows or in a hot environment, the product will start to go bad before you open it. :(

I would really like an explanation to something. most skin care products don’t come sealed, so doesn’t this mean that their expiration time starts counting since the day they are manufactured instead of the day when you use it for the first time?

this is something that I am really worried about. buying an expensive cream just to find out that its expiration time had passed before you bought it… that’s not nice

In reply to yasmine. Yasmine, I agree. That would be very useful indeed. I hope that'll be required by law one day.

A great post
I buy so many products and then forget about them
Would be great if all products had a clear use by date on them would be so useful

In reply to Ana. Ana, if nothing has changed, then it is still good to use. Maybe some of the actives may have lots their efficacy, especially if the product is packaged in a jar, but it should still be able to moisturize skin without causing any negative reactions. :)

In reply to Janessa. Janessa, isn't it a shame when they package a well-formulated moisturizer in a jar that will soon render it ineffective? I hate it when that happens, but enjoy it while it is still performing its best. :)
