My brahmi powder expired

[guyanesesista]

...in 2010. I bought it last Summer and didn't realize till tonight when I want to start using it. Can I still use it? I wanna use it. I'm not sure about how it's supposed to smell. Oh and it's Hesh brand.

I realized that I had 3 different boxes of powders that had expired...Amal, shakakai, and something else. I trashed them only because I hate using products that may have lost potency.

I wouldnt. Im not sure if the henna i used was expires or not but when i used this henna it left me with a tony bald spot on the front

Generally speaking pure dried herbs aren't harmful even if they're old, but they lose potency over time, so they might not be effective and you wouldn't see expected results.

Ok cool I'll throw it out. I also noticed my shikaki was also expired. I bought them the same day. Thanks girls.

They are also good for skin care. Maybe you can do a body scrub/exfoliate or something instead of throwing it away. I've seen skincare products with brahmi and amla.

^^thanks I didn't think about that.

I wouldn't throw them out. I have use expired products and still had good results.

 

[guyanesesista]

^^ yea I didnt throw them out yet. I'm still looking at them like I should use them.
