OK so i was cleaning out my drawers today and i found unopened brand new bottles of products never used. I looked at the dates and they seem to have expired. M wondering if its still safe to use em? Dates are below

Yonka Creme 410 - Aug 08
Bioderma Photoderm Max SPF 50+ - June /09
Jurlique Rosemary Sage Aromatic Hydrating Concentrate - Oct 08

I am thinking maybe the jurlique could be used on feet?

any ideas??

its a case of out of sight out of mind.....so annoyed about the money wasted Mad

I also found a full unopened jar of decleor essential balm....lucky this one hasnt expried Shock

hi,
i think expiry dates are approximates. i would think that they are safe to use, especially if they are not eye products. i think anything that is used around the eyes/mouth, you would have to be more cautious.
if it looks ok and smell ok, and within reason in relation to the expirty date, i would think it is safe. bioderma date looks ok.. just check it first.

and if at all doubtful, i agree, use it on your feet/knees/elbows. feet need pampering too! Very Happy

I wouldn't use the sunscreen. The others are probably OK. If they smell bad I wouldn't use them.

I agree, My mom always said "When in doubt throw it out"
It's not really worth getting an infection! Especially if it smells off in the slightest!

even for your Bioderma SPF, I do think it's safe to use on arms,but have to wait quite long before got chance to use, then you need to test first Smile
