La Roche Posay Tinted Sunscreen Bad Smell
hi, I don’t know where else to post this but I need answers.
i have been using la Roche posay tinted mineral sunscreen for over 2 years, I always order it from Amazon since I have Prime and ships quicker.
recently on my last order I notice that the product had a bad smell or odor, as if had gotten bad or expired, when i check the expiration date it said that it doesn’t expire until next year, which is weird, I decided to return it.
then I went to Ulta instead to buy it. thinking maybe it will be more legitimate, but when I got home the same issue happened, it had a really bad rotten smell, and the expiration date shows it doesn’t expire until next year.
this has never happened to me with this product and I was wondering if this has happened with anyone else or that maybe the company changed their formula or something.
i have seen online that people report a metallic smell which apparently is because it has minerals etc, but this is nothing like that
