Shelf Life




Did you know that even if your skincare products
don't have a specific expiration date, they still have
a shelf life? You'll notice this little icon on most of
your packaging. It indicates how many months
that product is good once opened. Just in case
you don't see the open jar icon here is a good
rule of thumb:



  • Face cream 1-2 years
  • Organic or Plant Based 6 months - 1 year higher chance of contamination due to non-traditional preserving methods.
  • Face Wash 1-2 years
  • Eye Cream 1 year because this is near your eyes, there is a higher risk of contamination.
