Anyone want to coat themselves up with the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer and go out on the beach for 3 days in the baking sun to test that out for RFD to make sure it works? :/

Even if it is expired. I'd still buy it.
I found a Spray Sunscreen in my house. Dated expiry 2014 lol
Yestersay i went shirtless. Used it for my walk/jog in the for 2 ½ hours . Sunscreen did its job
Edit* Photo Added
Expiry dates also take into consideration the deterioration of the packaging/container as that can make the product unsafe. It's not only about the item/food/chemical losing it's half life or going bad.
Over the last two decades of scare hype, there are still no clinical studies on humans showing any negative health-related consequences to oxybenzone (which is the primary organic compound that acts as a UV filter in the Neutrogena sunscreen). Also.... Daily Hive is hardly a reputable source lol.... actually even more interesting is that if you keep scrolling down past that article, the next article ('Beauty Files: Sun safety and sunscreen') even goes ahead and says:
What are the dangers of oxybenzone in sunscreens? Can it really cause hormonal or fertility problems when used in sunscreen?
Oxybenzone is commonly used in sunscreen because it is one of the few ingredients in sunscreen that effectively protects our skin from both harmful UVA and UVB rays. As we know, overexposure to either UVA or UVB rays can cause cancer. No data shows that oxybenzone causes hormonal problems in humans or, in fact, any significant health problems.
What is factually known about oxybenzone is that it bleaches coral reefs and should not be used if you're going into the water.

Unfortunately only spf 30. I'd look for spf 60 if I was going out in the sun for a longer period of time, but for short exposure, this would be fine.
SPF30 is recommended by Dermatologists of Canada. If the sunscreen is applied properly and re-applied according to the directions, no need to go higher than SPF30 https://dermatology.ca/recognized-products/sunscreen/
for 2 ½ hours . Sunscreen did its job. YMMV
