Do you pay attention to the expiry dates?

How do you handle maskne?
How do you handle maskne?
I haven’t faced that issue myself, since we very, very rarely left the house for more than a doctor’s appointment kind of thing. I do like Tower 28’s SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray for breakouts, generally.
