Does benzoyl peroxide become ineffective after 3 months?

Benzoyl peroxide is in the peroxide family, so it's not stable in the presence of light. Keep it in a cool, dark place. If you do so it should last up to or longer than its expiration date.

I was wondering because I've been using the same one for about 7 months now and recently I have started breaking out again.

You can apply some of it to colored fabric to see if bleaching occurs. If it does, there is still some active benzoyl peroxide.

Thank you.
