How does anyone know they are not puchasing a fake item? My PCA Skin Collagen Hydrator has expiration date that says 1216 on bottom. Not 12/16 or December 2016. Any input from customers? Also, kind of burned going on. Bought from Amazon Prime and...

I only get my PCA on Amazon. the BB date says 0117.... I've used it for years and always been pleased. call the company in AZ and ask them if you think you have a fake... probably the code on the bottom would let them know....

Well Shoot Mine says Oct 13 2003.....Dannng.....never would have checked it. But does tanning lotion really expire? Seems to be working fine thus far....used it several times.

The manufacturer of this product, Image, does NOT APPROVE OF SELLING ON AMAZON. There are MANY counterfeit products, expired, etc. of skin care products on Amazon. BUYER BEWARE!

I've had that concern, myself. There have been instances of me ordering facial care products from Ebay, etc., where the product itself has been fairly old. I'm please with what I received however, if there is a concern ... it might be best to order directly from the company itself. The products, since they're organic, probably do have a shorter shelf life. Hope this helped somewhat.

It seems very similar to me, though someone I know said that it may be expired stuff that they've put a different date on and that's why it's so much cheaper... I will say that before discovering it so low on Amazon, I would occasionally get on skincaremarket.net and other beauty sites for at least 20% off, so for example they have the transformation product at $72 right now... That seemed exactly the same as the first ones I got at full price...

On the package somewhere it should have a small thing that looks like a tub with lid and a number like 24 or something that means it's good for 2 years. So all cosmetics and even body care has "expiration" dates just beware using them after the efficiency of the product won't be as good and for cosmetics it means it could be full of germs that you're transferring on to your body.

Mine was a counterfeit too. Better to buy from Clarisonic directly or an authorized retailer instead. The serial number was not valid according to Clarisonic when attempting to register it. When I requested a refund I was given a full refund, no questions asked. In fact, I was told that I did not even need to return the item at all. Also, there was no seal on the lotion tube. I ended up buying direct from Clarisonic and I was surprised to see the lotion had a seal. Hmm... I wonder what was in that tube? Buyer beware!!! Strange that seller's address in the shipping box led to a house according to online maps. Mine was a counterfeit too. Better to buy from Clarisonic directly or an authorized retailer instead.

I cant tell you exactly why they sell it at such a low price but I can say that when I purchased this exact item it came in perfect condition and worked wonders on my skin. So, if your wondering about the validity of the product, its definitely legit. So go for it :P

Hello. No expiration date on bottle and it won't damage. I am medium dark skinned. It really works to get a dark tan for me. No issues

I ordered some last year, and it was already past the expiration date. When I contacted the seller, the reply was just...Don't worry about it. It's fine. I ended up throwing it out. Since then I've been told that they've discontinued it, so I guess they're just dumping their inventory. :(

Mine does not have an expiration date. I don't think any Nu Derm Exfoderm I have purchased had one.

I ordered this bottle but got the white plastic tube instead. On the tube there is an icon of the opened jar with the text "24M", which means expiring 24 months or 2 years from the date the seal is pealed open. However I have no idea how long it sat on the shelf until I got it. Hope the manufactured date is recent. You may want to google on cosmetic expiration date, very interesting and pretty scary too.

I don't think Amazon will sell expired product. I love Amazon, but this product just didn't work for me. I'm on my 40s and didn't see any improvements even if I used this everyday. Right now, I'm using the Bare Minerals brightening treatment for my dark spots.

How can I possibly tell you an expiration date on a product you order! I can tell you I take it daily and have ordered from Amazon for years and I have never had an issue with the expiration dates and if I had Amazon would have helped to correct the issue.

The one I purchased January 2015 expires September 2017. Expiration date is on the bottom of the jar. Any time I have bought Derma e I have had about a 2 year window before expiration.

Of course you wouldn't buy their product past the expiration date! Why would they tell you to do that? They wouldn't. No manufacturer would. I just got a new bottle here on Amazon in the mail today and it says "best by 11/16" so they are very fresh. Got mine shipped from and sold by Amazon, so no third party. Why would anyone buy ANYTHING that's expired???

I bought mine from another vender. Just looked at the expiration date and it is an expired item. Never noticed before. However, I have been using and did not notice the difference. Since I did not ingest the product, I am not concerned, but will be careful the next time I order. Glad you asked the question. Made me more aware.
