Each cosmetic has the PAO (Period After Opening) marking on the packaging. This is the symbol of an open jar with a number written on it and the letter M, which indicates how many months of opening the product should be used. For example, 6 M - is 6 months from the opening of the cosmetic. If the sunscreen was opened in August last year and has a PAO of 12 M, it means that it should be used by August this year, but it should be remembered that the product has been properly stored. It did not lie in high temperature, in the sun and did not lose its properties. It is worth writing down the opening dates of cosmetics. Creams with an expiration date of 12 months from the date of opening are, for example, Iwostin Solecrin https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/114733/iwostin-solecrin-ultra-lekki-niewidoczny-fluid-spf-50-plyn/apteki or La Roche-Posay Anthelios https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/115462/la-roche-posay-anthelios-uvmune-400-nawilzajacy-krem-ochronny-do-twarzy-spf-50-krem/apteki I encourage you to read the article about storing cosmetics: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-przechowywac-dermokosmetyki
