Does 100% Pure's three-year unopened average start when I buy the product?
It starts from production, not purchase, and applies while unopened. The individual product's printed expiry still takes priority.
Check 100% Pure Cosmetic Batch Code

100% Pure FAQ
Can I keep 100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara open for 18 months?
No. The brand's mascara guidance prefers 3–4 months and sets six months as a maximum, rather than the general 18-month endpoint.
Can 100% Pure help me find my mascara's production date?
The brand's Customer Care team can help with production dates using the lot on the bottle or tube.
100% Pure mascara has shorter opening guidance
Before you rely on the decoded date
- The general period after opening averages 6–18 months, but 100% Pure directs users to each package's open-jar symbol. Use that product's stated months and respect any earlier printed expiry.
- For mascara, 100% Pure recommends a preferable window of 3–4 months after opening and a maximum of six months. Fruit Pigmented Ultra Lengthening Mascara uses a slim hourglass wand.
Common lookup mistakes
- 100% Pure recommends a cool, dry, shaded place and an opening-date sticker for makeup.
- 100% Pure advises against sharing makeup and says natural preservatives do not override its open-jar or best-by dates. Stop using mascara if its smell or texture changes unexpectedly.
