Can i use expired shampoo?
I bought a bottle of shampoo from grocery store a week before, i used it once. But today i saw that it was made on June 2019. It has use by date of 2 years, so it means the last using date was July 2021 and i used it 2-3 days back. Is it safe to use a shampoo after its expiry date?

Any product should not be used after the expiry date.Even though u didn't experience any adverse effects with first usuage it can develop on further usuage.

Hi,
Expired products:
1. Do not work since efficiency has gone
2. In some cases they cause allergies and rashes which can not only occur on the area you apply the product but all over the body
Hence do not use expired products
