What are the wonderful uses of expired sunscreen

For many women, sunscreen is a must-have item in summer. But summer has passed, and I bought a lot of sunscreen but rarely used it. After a long time, the sunscreen will inevitably expire. If I really use it at this time, it would be a waste, but I don’t know what specific uses the expired sunscreen has, especially some sunscreens are more expensive. It would be painful to throw them away after they expire. Here are some uses of expired sunscreen.

If a big brand's sunscreen plug has a whitening effect even if it is expired, it would be a waste to throw it away. We can use it to apply on the feet to whiten your feet. Because the skin on the feet is thicker, expired sunscreen will not cause damage to the skin on the feet, but be careful not to apply too much.

If you wear leather shoes or have leather shoes at home, you can use expired sunscreen to wipe the leather shoes with a used towel or a soft-bristled toothbrush.

Sometimes, in order to make it convenient to hang things at home, such as clothes or convenience bags, some small hooks like suction cups are hung on the wall. If it takes a long time, the suction cup may not have enough pressure and will not be able to stick and fall off. At this time, we can apply sunscreen on the hook and then hang the hook up. In this way, the suction cup will be very firm.

When writing, sometimes we accidentally make strokes on our hands, which are generally difficult to wash off. At this time, we only need to apply an appropriate amount of sunscreen to the area with strokes, massage with our hands for a while, and then wash it off with clean water.

In addition, if the time since the sunscreen was applied is not long, you can apply it on your arms or hands, but not on your face. It will still have a certain sun protection effect. The shelf life of sunscreen is usually around 3 years, so try to use it within the shelf life. Expired sunscreen contains some carcinogens, which can cause harm to the body if used after the expiration date.
