Please don’t use it. After applying expired sunscreen for over a month my body gave in. I am currently having a “fun” experience of (irritant?) contact dermitisis.
My hands feel like they are on fire. My arms and leg’s only get itchy, mainly in the morning and at night. I have not had this of a severe skin reaction since my childhood days.
It’s been about a week so far.
On a positive note, I’ve done a lot of reading on skin. Your skin is your largest organ, and something I will take more care of. In Qi Gong you have “skin breathing”, which I only started to explore. The skin has multiple layers, the expired sunscreen was absorbed and the reaction was toxicity (poisoning of the skin). Then came out the contact dermitisis.
The past couple of months we’ve been by the sea and there has been an increased usage of skin creams and sunscreen. When you read the ingredients you realise how many chemicals are in there, and there are a lot. It made me question why do we need so many chemicals? Are they really beneficial for the skin / body? I have no idea. We will be trying some “organic” and less “chemically” skin screams and sunscreen. Maybe there is something there?
