Does this oil expire? Or, need to be refrigerated?

I don't recall seeing an expiration date but it is not for eating it is for the skin and hair.

No it does not need to be refrigerated, and as far as I know, it doesn't expire. I've had mine for almost I year now I believe and I just keep it with my other body and hair products, like lotions and hair Serums, powder , etc.

this oil has been in my medicine cabin and do not remember seeing a expiration date. I use it in my hair.

I imagine it has an expiration but there is not one listed. No refrigeration necessary.

Refrigerated, indefinitely. At room temp and cyclicly accessed and closed, I'd guess after six months if you haven't used it up, its probably lost alot of its charm other than saltiness. There's no fat or oil in there so spoilage is impeded by the salt. Mine gets used up before the thrill is gone.

I've had mine awhile and it hasn't expired. I would recommend that you shake it up so that the oils can recombine. The separation is normal, just shake it so it mixes up again.

Since it's a saturated fat oil, like ghee, it can last years though most people will try to use within one year. You can store in the refrigerator, but it will harden and be difficult to use so I keep mine in my cupboard. When I buy more than one though, I store one in the freezer or refrigerator.

No, does not need to be refrigerated. Bottle says to "keep it in a cool, dry place"

You do not have to refrigerate this product. The jar instructions say to store it in "a cool, dry" place--such as a pantry that is cool and dry. That should be sufficient.

It does have a weird smell to it. It's like any oil, if left out for a long time, it becomes rancid. Check the date it was bottled and if it's within a month, then it's still good. But I would probably keep in fridge if you don't use it quickly.

HI! I premix this with Grape seed and e oils so I am not aware of a shelf life...I will say after about three months the oils can become cloudy but again mine are mixed! The smell is much less potent with the Pure VS. the cooking oil.Hope this helps! I use it in EVERYTHING! and LOVE THIS PRODUCT!

This is fish oil. It can go bad. I refrigerate mine after opening, but it starts out viscous at room temp and gets even thicker when refrigerated, so you have to thaw it out for a while. It's really fishy too - go figure.

no. it is not refrigerated, and does not need to be, unless individual bottle is open. i buy for my mother, but she says it has a long expiration period.

I don't refrigerate it. It has been sitting on my shelf for over a year and I just used some. More than half the bottle left since I bought it well over a year ago.

I guess the best is to buy it refrigerated, but it's fine to purchase it online because its only some hours that the bottle will be exposed to high temperatures and no harm will be made to the oil. When you receive it at home keep it refrigerated.

Yes mine is like that too. It depends on the temperature that the bottle is being held at. Stir the liquid before you take a spoonful to make sure that you are getting a good mix of the fish and butter oil. I emailed customer support at Green Pastures yesterday as I am going to order a case from them and wanted to know about storage temperature for shelf life. Here is what they said:"Opened bottles of Fermented Cod Liver Oil can be stored either refrigerated or unrefrigerated. The oil lasts up to a year or longer. " So, it is your preference whether to store in the fridge or not. I dont. Other reviewers have said that it is easier to swallow and less fishy if refrigerated. Close your nose and swallow - like my 4 yr old :)

No, it doesnt have to be refrigerated. The life is around 2 years after you buy them, the last i bought 6 months ago will expire in 2015

I've only had this oil for about 3 months, so I'm not sure what the shelf life is, trying going online for your answer.

I keep mine refrigerated to prevent oxidation with exposure to air and transfer it to smaller storage vessels,as the lid cannot be tightened, but it is such a wonderful tasting oil, it is worth the effort for storage.

No, but it's new. People in the reviews claiming that they thought the oil was expired said so bc the oil wasn't room temperature. When the oil gets cool, it solidifies. It confused some ppl into thinking it was bad. It's good as new once you run the bittle under warm water for a minute, or set under a lamp, or something. It's worth the hassle in the winter! :) I've had the same bottle now for about a year, and it's still good. I hope his helps.
