What is the average shelf life for a tanning lotion. My heat Shock promised reddening but all I felt was a slight tingle,and no red.

is it watery ? if so ya it's gone bad cause that is some hot stuff. I had 2 bottles of Surface of the Sun that turned into water , if it has a bronzer you can tell if it's bad because it get sort of chunky & or seperates.

Aloha,
How long did you have the bottles?
We had some Zoe Girl Stretching the Truth go bad, but that has been our only experience with bad bronzers.

A little more than one year , I forgot that I had them in a cabinet that was near the sun & heat.

We have alot, but in a cool product room. I will keep checking it though. Nice to know!

Most indoor tanning lotions sold by salons, has a 2 year shelf life, as long as it does not see extreme heat or cold. I sell all lotions on the shelves in December at a discount to await new lotions for the new year.
