Those abbreviations are probably Enero 11, or january 2011 and diciembre 09, or December 2009.
No idea why the expiration dates on the box would be scratched off. Obviously the January 2011 one has oddles of life left, and the December 09 one is still well within expiration. For what it's worth, my former derm once gave me a Retin A sample that was very near expiration, and she told me not to worry about an expiration date with Retin A--that it didn't degrade appreciably till opened so that it could be used even months past its official expiration date. Turned out not to be a problem for me, as sadly my skin really never liked it and I had to discontinue it. |
