shelf life of Vit C & SS?

What is the shelf life of Vit C and Super Serum? Does it make sense to stock up while you have the money? Can they go in the fridge to extend their life? I know most acids can't go in the fridge.

EDIT!!!! Think I found my answer, vit c /map stays active for 2 months. Will putting in the fridge extend both serums or hurt them?
Thanks!!!

Refrigeration will extend shelf life. Also, I think they should be good for about 6 months.

Can the moisturizer be put in the fridge as well?

I actually store all my serums (facelift, super, oatmeal, GT&A) and moisturisers (firming, hemp, raspberry) in the fridge. No problems with them so far :)

Glad I saw this...putting all mine in the frig to help them keep there life. Is there anything that should not go in the frig?? :)

Do not refrigerate mandelic acid serums.

Mandelic acid or salicylic acid serums can crystallize in the refrigerator and won't return to their desired states even after they're no longer refrigerated. This is irrelevant to SN's current skincare products, but I thought I'd share!
