i have some dove deodorant and i figured that it has expired at july. what will happen if i still use it? will it turn my arm pits dark? (they;'re already dark and i don't know why) will they still work? or will something else bad happen?

its like using shampoo past the experation date or water. its put on there to move it from the store. so it doesnt sit to long. Food and drugs are really the only thing experattion dates are really important on

No the reason for the expiration date if it has one is for the fragrance and moisture content. what happens is it dries out and the fragrance dies off. It will just not be as effective at preventing oder. As far as the darking under the arms it could just be a pigment prob or bruising due to to tight of shirts and pressing to hard with that deoderant stick. Good luck

It should be ok to use. Nothing will happen to you. It is just that the deodorant might be a little dryer than usual. Don't worry about it.

It doesn't usually expire; Deoderant is a particular type of soap that contains alphagenic complexies which destroy the odor-causing bacteriums on your skin. These complexes rarely disipate.

There is nothing wrong with deodorant that has expired.

Where in the world did you come up with the idea that deodorants expire? I've NEVER heard of that?

well expiration dates mean something otherwise they wouldn't tell you. Just go out and buy some more and get rid of the expired one.

Nothing except it may dry out and get hard. Good luck. Pops
