SN Quality Question

[nosirens]

So I have SN that I bought three years ago, I never opened the bottle and it's been in a cabinet in room temperature for those 3 years. I planned on ctb by SN soon but I can't seem to find where to buy it anymore and am wondering if the old SN is still good to use. :/

If it's stored in an air-tight location that isn't too hot, I've heard that SN basically doesn't expire. So if it's been kept in in original container, it's probably still good.

However, the best way to test it is with the blood test. Mix a few drops of blood with a small amount of the SN. If it turns into a very dark brown, almost chocolate-like color, then it's still good. If the blood stays red or takes a long time to change color, then that means you should get a replacement if you can. Good luck ^^

The SN I got states that expiry date is in 3 years from now exactly. But yes, as stated above, it should be fine if stored in normal room temperature and if it is in a closed container or bag.

Ima look at mine now see what it says.

it was literally still in the package, it doesn't have an expiration date on it.
