Suncream

Check out Martin Lewis hints for saving money on ( and before ) going on holiday. There is a good paragraph on sun cream use by dates etc....

I've had sun creams for years that have still been effective even though the 'experts' say that they don't!
I'm sure last years will be ok. Let's face it, you don't know how long they've been sat in a warehouse do you?

Should have been "don't last"!

I use mine over 2 years.
I did do it 3 years once, and the suncream did not do its job.

I'm not willing to throw out half a bottle of suncream and have been using what's left from the previous year for years. It still does what it says on the. bottle.

I use up mine until its gone as its very expensive although I know they do say its not as effective if its past its sell by date but they say that about all make up and I don't really take any notice - haven't had any adverse effects. I am just thinking maybe I wouldn't do that for children though best not to take risks with delicate young skin.
