I've got some Biotique Ayurvedic products like hair masks, face packs, and skin polishers that have been unopened for about 4 years. They were manufactured from October 2015 to September 2016, and they say they expire 3 years from the manufacturing date. Is it okay to use them now? I've heard that Ayurvedic products don't really expire. What do you think?

I'm curious about the safety of using Veet hair removal wax cream. Is it bad for the skin at all, like could it lead to cancer or other skin problems? I've got quite a bit of hair and I'm looking to find a safe way to remove it. Your advice would be super helpful!

Veet hair removal wax cream is generally safe for use on the skin for hair removal. It is unlikely to cause cancer or serious skin issues when used according to the instructions. However, some individuals may experience skin irritation, redness, or allergic reactions to the ingredients in the cream. It is always recommended to do a patch test before using it on larger areas of the skin. If you do not experience any adverse reactions, you can proceed with using the cream. Make sure to follow the recommended usage and application instructions to minimize any potential risks.

Can melalumin lightening cream be used on lips to decrease melanin, or do I need to get the specific melalumin lip lightener? The chemist said it would work, but I'm not sure.

I would advise against using Melalumin lightening cream on your lips, even if the chemist says it will work. Here's why: 1. Formulation differences: Melalumin lightening cream is formulated for skin use, whereas lip skin is more delicate and requires specialized care. Using a skin cream on lips may cause irritation, dryness, or other adverse reactions. 2. Lip safety: Lips lack the protective barrier of skin, making them more susceptible to irritation and damage. Using a skin lightening cream on lips may increase the risk of adverse effects. 3. Specific lip concerns: Lip lightening products, like Melalumin lip lightener, are specifically designed to address lip concerns, such as dryness, pigmentation, and fine lines. They may contain ingredients that are more suitable for lip care. To ensure safety and effectiveness, I recommend using a product specifically designed for lip care, such as Melalumin lip lightener.

I've been dealing with some pretty bad itching and rashes all over my body. I already took an anti-allergy pill but it didn't seem to help at all. Before this, I had a fever and took paracetamol for it. Could you suggest something better for these symptoms?
