Factors that affect product shelf life aluminum cosmetic tube

2022-10-23

When it comes to skin creams and lotions, the product shelf life is not just important for the manufacturers, but also for the customers who use the products. If you look around your bathroom cabinet or storage space where you keep your cosmetic products, chances are you already have seen some of your skin care products in aluminum cosmetic tubes. 

Some examples of cosmetic products that are commonly found in aluminum tube cosmetics include sunblock lotion, facial moisturizers, eye creams, and body lotions. The amount of time that these products will stay usable depends on how well they were made and stored prior to consumption by consumers.

Here are some factors that affect how long your lotions in aluminum tubes will stay usable for:

Storage conditions:

If your lotions in aluminum tube cosmetics are stored at room temperature or below, they may be prone to moisture build-up. The more humid the air, the greater the risk of condensation on the tube walls and their contents. In addition, if you live in a rainy area where there's frequent flooding or foggy weather (which can cause condensation), this could also be a problem for storing your product properly in an aluminum tube.

Storing your cosmetic products in a cool, dry place will help prolong their shelf life. The ideal bathroom temperature is between 15.5°C and 21°C (60°F and 70°F), while humidity should be between 40% and 60%.

Don't store your cosmetics in the refrigerator or freezer as this can cause condensation to build up on the bottle inside which can lead to corrosion of the tube over time. Instead, put them into a plastic bag before storing them away in their original containers.

Type of container:

The type of container you store your products in matters too! Plastic containers expose them to sunlight which can cause accelerated oxidation (a process where molecules break down) which is why aluminum collapsible tubes manufacturers recommend using aluminum tubes when storing cosmetics. They are less prone to degradation due to UV light exposure over time.

You should know that these tube-type containers have a longer shelf life than their plastic counterparts. This is because they can be resealed once opened so there's no worry about leakage during transport or storage since air does not seep into them easily through pores on their surfaces. This makes them ideal for long-term storage purposes such as keeping cosmetics fresh longer before use again!

Shelf life of the product:

The shelf life of each product is different. For example, an anti-aging wrinkle cream stored in metal aluminum tube packaging may last longer than a sunscreen lotion because of the ingredients and formulations used. However, there are also factors that can affect how long each product will last, such as exposure to environmental conditions that can strip off or change the composition of the ingredients inside so they can no longer do what they’re supposed to do inside the skin.

Most manufacturers print expiration dates on their products' labels. If yours does not have one printed on it (or doesn't say whether it expires), check with your supplier about when it should be thrown out after opening. Some companies will even continue selling outdated products even after their shelf life has passed! Make sure that you're getting new stock every time you order something from them, and keep track of how much time has passed since opening each container so that you know when exactly its last day was before throwing any unwanted products away!

Now that you know the factors that affect how long your lotions and creams will stay usable, it’s time to make sure your cosmetics are kept at the right temperatures and humidity levels. When storing these products in storage containers or containers with lids, try keeping them in a cool dry place where there is little access to light such as a cabinet or closet where no one will see them easily. Your skin care products should always be stored in protective plastic/glass containers so that no air gets into them which could cause changes over time.
