Storage Guidelines

At SunKissedByOmalicha, we craft our products in small batches using fresh, natural botanicals without harsh preservatives. This means our turmeric-based skincare delivers maximum potency and benefits, but it also means proper storage and timely use are essential for optimal results.

⏰ Product Shelf Life

IMPORTANT: All SunKissedByOmalicha products expire 9 months after opening
  • Unopened products: Best used within 12 months of purchase date
