I bought a bottle an Olay face cleanser about 2 to 3 years ago, and since then I have only used it a few times. I think the last time I used it was sometime in the last year? :-|
I don't see an expirey date on the bottle, so I really don't know what to do with it, though I would like to continue to use it for it's a too much of a waste if I just throw it out.
So back to my question.. should I throw it away or continue on using it?
Thanks! :-)

Toss it out or risk break outs. Facial cleansers including shampoo, lotion and shower gels have a shelf life for only about 2-3 years.

Well, I am anti-Olay, so I say throw it out!! Especially if it smells funny or the consistency is off.
Most products are meant to have a shelf life of 12-24 months once they are opened, but you can usually keep them longer by not letting dirty fingers contaminate them and by closing them so there is no air circulation.

Throw it away because the cleaner lasted for 2 - 3 years. It will destroy you face if you continue using it.

Cleansers and make-up lose there effectiveness after about 6 months to a year, and can grow nasty fungi. I'd throw it away and go buy fresh.

Experts would recommend you throw it away. In fact, you're supposed to get rid of your makeup every 6mos to a year, to prevent bacteria build up that can cause acne and other facial issues like blackheads and minor pore infections.
Plus, you're not using it! Toss it! :)

easily save their assets. they are powerful, precious thoughts for them, and for me. i could positioned a number of their stuff to good use (like my mom's music field). If this is something that I have no use for and is no longer possibly well worth of value (like a coffee table, i could sell it in a backyard sale or something). i assume it particularly relies upon on the object.

I would toss it because I would say that the cream is not doing your skin any good now.
