It is generally recommended to use opened products within 12 months (based on the product's expiration date). After this period, the ingredients may degrade, reducing their protective effectiveness. The rate of degradation can also vary based on storage conditions (high temperatures, exposure to direct sunlight), so it is safer to replace it with a new product.
