In reply to Suz. Suz, yes, you can store it in the fridge.

How about storing them in the fridge? I live in a very hot country with a dry climate where the temperature inside the house is often above 28 degrees Celsius in the summer. Is the fridge a better option to keep lotions and sunscreens cool or is it too humid to be beneficial (or possibly detrimental)?

In reply to Dinah. Dinah, sunscreens are tested to withstand instances like this. As it was only 20 minutes, I don't think it did much damage. Had you left it there for a few days, then I would have worried.

Hi! I ordered a new sunscreen which arrived in the mail today. The bottle was hot (it was close to 90 degrees outside) and it was sitting in my mailbox for about 20 minutes. Do you think it’s lost effectiveness in that time? The active ingredients are octinoxate and zinc oxide. Thanks 🙂
