What is my Pure-Castile Bar Soap's shelf life?Updated 10 months ago

Our Pure-Castile Bar Soap has a 3-year shelf life from the date of manufacture.

Rather than have a best-by-date, we have the manufacture date represented by a 4-to-6-digit lot code on one of the small ends of the outer wrapper. 

The first number of the code represents the manufacture year (ex: 0 = 2020, 1 = 2021). The following 3 digits represents the day of the year that the soap is manufactured (ex: 1075 = March 16, 2021). 

To decode your manufacture date quickly, reference our Julian Date Calendars.
