From current lastlog(8):

OPTIONS
       The options which apply to the lastlog command are:

       -b, --before DAYS
              Print only lastlog records older than DAYS.
[..]
       -t, --time DAYS
              Print the lastlog records more recent than DAYS.
[..]
       The -t flag overrides the use of -u.

-b option is new and will be avalaible in shadow 4.0.13.
