Hi, how long would you say the shelf life would be?
The shelf life of homemade rose body lotion will depend on several factors such as storage conditions and the quality of ingredients used. However, typically, homemade body lotions can last anywhere from 3-6 months if kept in an airtight container and stored in a cool, dry place. It’s always best to use your discretion and discard the lotion if it starts to smell or look odd before the expiry date. Also, keep in mind that natural ingredients tend to spoil faster compared to commercial products that contain preservatives. So it’s best to make smaller batches and use them up quickly.
