Neutrogena hand cream can be stored for three years if unopened

How long is the shelf life of Neutrogena Hand Cream? Neutrogena Hand Cream was recommended by Big S many years ago, so many people choose to stock up when they buy it. Let’s take a look at it together below~

Neutrogena hand cream shelf life

The shelf life of unopened Neutrogena hand cream is three years, but after opening, it is recommended to be used up within one year. Because after opening the hand cream, the more times it comes into contact with the air, the more it will be affected by the microorganisms and bacteria in the air, which will accelerate the loss of the effective ingredients of the Neutrogena hand cream, causing the Neutrogena hand cream to lose its effectiveness faster.

How to check the shelf life of Neutrogena hand cream

The expiration date of Neutrogena hand cream is printed on the back of the outer packaging. The method of reading the expiration date is the same as that in China. For example, 20200726 means that the shelf life of the Neutrogena hand cream is July 26, 2020, which means that the unopened Neutrogena hand cream can be stored until July 26, 2020.

Can I still use Neutrogena hand cream after it expires?

It is not recommended to use Neutrogena hand cream on the hand skin after it expires, because the effective ingredients of Neutrogena hand cream have lost their effectiveness after expiration, and it will not produce its original effect if used again. It may even absorb the moisture of the hand skin, making the hand skin drier and rougher. Moreover, the texture of expired Neutrogena hand cream will change. If used on the hand skin again, it may cause allergic symptoms such as redness and dryness on the hand skin. Therefore, do not use expired Neutrogena hand cream on the hand skin.
