FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb may have announced his resignation earlier this month, but he's still bringing forth new health regulations for the country.
Summer is here again, and that means digging swimsuits and beach towels out of the closet. Before you toss old sunscreen in your bag, check the expiration date.
Using old sunscreen isn't necessarily harmful on its own, but it won't work as well — and you probably already aren't getting as much protection as you think you are, said Dr. Dawn Davis, a dermatologist at the Mayo Clinic. Expiration dates on Johnson & Johnson's sunscreens are two years from the time the products are made, though well-made products should have a shelf life of between two and three years, said Menas Kizoulis, scientific engagement director of beauty. J&J's Neutrogena brand captures 23 percent of the $1.6 billion U.S. sun protection market, according to market research firm Euromonitor.
There are signs of aging you can look for. If an oily liquid flows separate from the solid when you squeeze a tube of lotion, that means the integrity of the formulation has been compromised and you won't get the SPF the label promises, so you should throw it away, said Kizoulis. Sun damage can also make your skin age and wrinkle. Just one-third of American adults said they usually or always apply sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher, according to CDC survey data.
"Just getting a sunscreen that say we're making an SPF 30, that's not rocket science," he said."We can combine sunscreen filtering ingredients with some moisturizing ingredients to create a sunscreen formulation."
