## Questions & Answers

**Q: When does this expire**
A: Good question, I don't know. I use it every day and I've never had a bottle go bad. I've had some for several months. A little bit goes a long way.

**Q: Serum did not have the standard plastic wrap around cap fasting to bottle. Should it have?  Also wasn’t a full bottle.**
A: I can't remember how mine arrived, but when in doubt, send it back.

**Q: Under eye circles and bags**
A: Ok, so my wife really just uses it for the cheek and forehead area for moisture and softness, "NOT" sure it is for "under eye circles and bags. Philosophy does put out a serum especially for that. God Bless!

**Q: How long until you see results?**
A: OK, so my wife uses it during the day, she is happy with it. Works for her just fine. Took about 2-3 weeks for results. Actually, we're still buying it, she is "still" using it. God Bless!
