If this is a discontinued item, how old are they (expiration dates)?

Yes, L'Oreal Natural Match 6R was discontinued at least four years ago. I've purchased the item from various amazon and ebay vendors. I've never seen expiration dates on the package, but have found expired coupons (e.g, 2009). I'd recommend submit a question to the vendor and see what it can tell you. Despite the items being old, I've never been disappointed. The only thing one must be careful of is that the plastic bottle gets brittle so I transfer the contents to my own plastic container (looks like a plastic mustard container with oz measurements on it).

Good evening Tyka...I really don't know about the expiration date of those hair colors, or if they are discontinued items, but the thing is that I use the "7W Dark Golden Blonde" and it is always fine with me...The most important thing is that I never can find that hair color in the pharmacies or regular stores and I don't think somebody or some company dares to sell them as expired or discontinued item...I buy it through Amazon and I feel a great respect about that Website, but if some day I find something irregular about that hair color, I asure you, I will take action. God Bless you, Tyka. Sincerely, Nidia.

thats most likely an old photo, they will not send you expired item. You go through them pretty quickly so they should not expire on you.

I would guess they are either the dates made or the expiration dates... talk to the company.

I bought these about six months ago and the expiration date is 04/09/18. As for the usefulness, the expiration date is the point to which the manufacturer will stand behind the product. It doesn't suddenly stop working after that, you just run an increasing chance it will not work properly after that date. In reality it might work fine two years after the expiration date, but do you want to take the risk? They don't cost much, so I would just replace them.

PS. See the other answers. All the expiration dates do vary. Again, it depends on when they were made. I would say if they are still selling them, and IF they WERE expired, they would HAVE to state that. Just my opinion, not set in stone, though.

check the box it has expiration date on all of them . each one is different date depending on when its made.

I've used some that were very old. They always worked fine. Never had a problem. Why is that important? I don't think they do expire.

Hi Janice. I've always used them until they are gone. I have never seen an expiration date on them and I have never had any problems.

Actually you are correct as I just looked at the expiration dates on these which state they expired back on 10/11/13. I purchased 3 of them back on January 1, 2014 which shows they were clearly expired when I purchased them. Wow, I never would have thought a company would send out expired defense sprays of all things! I can't believe I didn't notice this! I just emailed the company asking for replacement non-expired foggers as this is is beyond upsetting. If you want to purchase these I'd call the seller first and make sure that you will be getting product that is not expired but current! It blows my mind that a company would even send out expired products especially when it has to do with saving people's lives! Thank you for bringing this to my attention! Good luck!

That is the date that the strips stop working. Expiration date is on the box. Sometimes the sellers will not tell you the Ex D good if expires in a year.

I'm not sure I had to toss mine out after I got them. The expiration date was *Aug 2012*. Make sure you check the date!

Actually they expired about a couple of months after I got them and ended throwing most of them out. Had I known, I would not have bought them.
