Hello Dan,

Let's see now... about 2 months and then it is gone... :)

OK, back from kidding you, it should last a long time.  The only caution
would be to keep it out of direct UV light and to keep the temperature of it
below somewhere around 120 F.  I suppose it would also be good to keep the
minimum temperature above 30 F.

I generally make is as I use it, but I was able to find a bottle that I
mixed up about 6 months ago.  It lathered up just like new stuff.  I haven't
done any testing beyond that.

Tom

How long will this "keep?"
