Do shea butter expire?

Hi Nicole: I don't have an answer about expiration. There isn't a date on my jar. But, I feel sure that Molivera Organics website would be helpful in finding an answer to your question. I have only had my jar for a few weeks, so its still fresh and I am loving its moisturizing and softening effects on my skin.

Im not sure...I will have to check the label. It seems many people used this product in many ways...so if its something you plan to use often..you shouldnt have to worry about it. I just started using this on my face maybe a month ago and I love it. I go tanning and when I burn a little I put this on right away and it always keeps my skin looking radiant. I put it on scars also and it seems to heal faster. I plan to buy an additional one soon because Im running out that's how great it is. Hope this helps.

I would say it must because when I recieved mine it was rock hard I can't imagine it would be other wise

I have Shea Butter and Mango Butter that is over 14 years old. It is organic and unrefined. I kept it in a cool dry place. When I want to use it I put it on top of the pilot lights on my stove to get the consistency I want in the winter. In the summer I just put it under the sky light and let the sun heat it up. When I'm not using it I put it back in it's cool dry dark place.

I'm not certain how long after opening they expire. I feel mine have held up nicely. I actually just opened a brand new one and it had that same nutty smell. I know what you mean by it having a different odor to delicious cocoa butter smell!!!

I didn't see one, but considering it is basically dirt, I am not sure it would expire. ;)

My jar does not have an expiration date listed on it. I do store my high vitamin butter in the refrigerator.

As far as I know there is no expiration date, I've gone for a whole year before returning to salon and still used product that I bought originally. It was still good as new. If it is exposed to radical temperature changes and gets watery, then it is suspect, but I have used it anyway, just mix with another lotion. I find these products superior and have a very dark tan to prove it. People think I've been on the beach for 6 months.

no there isn't one on the aaa shea butter but I've got another brand by slice of nature that states it has a 5 year self life

They can't expire. Homeopathic products *don't actually contain any active ingredients* - not even a single molecule. It's a placebo. That's why the ingredients are written "HPUS" instead of actually listing the ingredients in normal units like non-homeopathic products do.

I ordered mine over a year ago, I ordered a large amount to make body butter, it has an expire date of 2016 on it. I keep it in a cool dark closet and check it often, it is just as the day I ordered it. I will be ordering more when needed.

Generally there aren't any ingredients in beauty products that spoil, only lose their efficacy as they age. It is likely completely safe to use it beyond its expiration date.

Usually they have 2-3 years shelf life we don't know how long it was at the salon I hope we answered your question

After you've cleaned the Shea Butter, up to two years, if stored in a cool dry place. :)

Mine has expired but I've had it a long time, am still using it and skin can feel the benifitfrom it still. A little goes a long way, great stuff.

I know of no expiration date on the Res-Q Ointment. I personally would not hesitate to use it indefinitely as long as the tin is kept covered and the appearance hasn't changed. I've had a tin for years and it is unchanged and continues to be effective. You might try asking Burt's Bees at toll free # 800-849-7112.

The ones I received expire in 2015. I use it every day as my foundation. Love it .

Hello all! There is an expiration date is on the bottom rim of the jar in raised plastic (not on the bottom of the jar but on the raised rim that goes around the outside). It can be hard to find but if you run your finger around the bottom rim you will be able to feel where the expiration date is. The almond butter expires a year from the date of manufacture. We produce our almond butter weekly so our product is always fresh!

i dont see the expiration date in my lotion, but once you start to use it, you can do it for a year.

My guess is that like all make up bases, it will dry up over time and the strength of the sunscreen factor may diminish. Keeping it in a cool dark cabinet may help the shelf life, but I use it daily and run out after a few months. If you don't see any expiration date assume two to three years like foundation.
