What are the uses of expired sunscreen?

Sunscreen is a popular cosmetic product and is very popular in modern life. It is especially necessary for people who like outdoor activities to prepare a bottle of sunscreen because it can provide excellent sun protection and prevent the skin from being damaged by the sun. However, sunscreen can easily expire. What good is expired sunscreen for people who don't use it often?

If the sunscreen you buy is expensive and has a whitening effect, it would be a waste to throw it away after it expires. You can apply it on your feet to whiten your feet. Because the skin on your feet is thicker, expired sunscreen will not cause damage to the skin on your feet. But be careful not to apply too much.

If you have leather shoes or other leather shoes at home, you can use expired sunscreen to wipe the leather shoes, and wipe them with a used towel or a soft-bristled toothbrush.

Sometimes, in order to make it convenient to hang things at home, such as clothes or convenience bags, some small hooks like suction cups are hung on the wall. If it takes a long time, the suction cup may not have enough pressure and will not be able to stick and fall off. At this time, we can apply sunscreen on the hook and then hang the hook up. In this way, the suction cup will be very firm.

When writing, sometimes we accidentally make strokes on our hands, which are generally difficult to wash off. At this time, we only need to apply an appropriate amount of sunscreen to the area with strokes, massage with our hands for a while, and then wash it off with clean water.

If the sunscreen has not been expired for a long time and you bought the genuine product, you can apply it on your hands, arms, or knees where the skin is thicker, but never on your face.

The shelf life of sunscreen is generally two to three years. To avoid waste, please use it within the shelf life. Once opened, try to use it up within six months. If you have not used it up within six months, do not apply it on your face.
