Spring is officially here and chances are you’re already thinking about cleaning out your closet, freshening up your home, or swapping your winter boots for something a little lighter.

But here’s a question most people forget to ask:

When was the last time you spring-cleaned your skincare?

Yep, we said it.

The half-used exfoliant that’s been tucked in the back of your cabinet for... who knows how long?

It might be time to let it go.

Wait—Skincare Expires?

Yes, even that moisturizer you love and swear by has a shelf life.

Using expired products can lead to breakouts, irritation, and zero results—aka, wasted money and wasted skin potential.

Here’s how to know when it’s time to toss:

Check the PAO symbol (Period After Opening)
That little open jar icon with a number? It tells you how many months the product is good for after opening. If it says “12M” and you opened it last winter... time’s up.

Smell + Texture
If it smells off, feels gritty, or looks separated—it’s expired. Trust your senses.

Colour Changes

Oxidation can break down active ingredients like Vitamin C or retinol, leaving you with a product that’s not only ineffective but potentially irritating.
