How long can you keep lotion after opening it?

Usually 6 months to 1 year: lotion refers to toner and emulsion, these two skin care products are used almost every day. Ordinary lotions have a shelf life of 3 years, but this refers to unopened lotions. Once opened, they will be mixed with air and bacteria, and the usage time will be greatly shortened, from the original 3 years to 6 months to 1 year. But this number is not the most accurate, after all, different brands have different usage time after opening.

Check the shelf life from the opening label:

The production date and shelf life will be marked in the product introduction of the lotion bottle, while the bottom or bottom of some lotion bottles will be marked with the usage time after opening the bottle. Look for an opening mark on your lotion bottle with the numbers "6M" or "12M" written on it, which means the usage time after opening the bottle is 6 months or 12 months.

How to store lotion after opening

Skin care products can be divided into cleansing (facial cleansers, cleansing creams), moisturizing (day and night creams), skin care (facial masks, essences) and other products. Generally speaking, as long as they are placed in a cool place, the quality of the products can be ensured.

Toner and facial mask will be more effective if placed in the refrigerator.

However, lotions or facial creams can be stored at room temperature. Putting them in the refrigerator and then taking them out for use will make them spoil more easily. If you just take them out for use once and put them back immediately, you can also put the lotion or facial cream in the refrigerator.

Okay, that’s all about the storage method and time of lotion after opening. I hope you all understand.
