My facial moisteriser expired last month, is it safe to still use it?

How long can we safely keep using these kinds of products after their expiration date?





I bought the product I'm using overseas and it's not available in my country so I'll have to wait until a friend can bring a new one over.My facial moisteriser expired last month, is it safe to still use it?
If it's only been expired for a month, it's probably fine. Has the color turned funny? Does it smell weird? Has the consistency of the product changed (ie, is it thicker, runnier, clumpier, than it was when you got it)? Has the product become uneffective, or is it giving you some new and unwelcome side effects (ie, making you break out)? If all of the above is a resounding ';no';, then your moisturizer is probably fine.





I've definitely used moisturizers and lotions well past the expiration date with no ill effects, and depending on the type of packaging, bacteria getting into the product probably won't even be a concern. If your moisturizer is in a pot or tub that you have to dip your fingers into, then there might be a bacteria issue, but if it's in a squeeze tube, pump bottle, or some other type of packaging where your fingers aren't coming into contact with the product every day, then it's not near as likely that there's any sort of bacteria issue.





IMHO the best thing to do is just examine in the product. If it looks or smells like it's starting to turn bad, then pitch it, but if it seems fine and works fine, there's no reason to throw it out.My facial moisteriser expired last month, is it safe to still use it?
