Proper storage

Why proper storage is so important

Natural and organic cosmetics often contain sensitive ingredients that react to external influences such as temperature, humidity, and light. Improper storage can lead to:

  • reduced effectiveness,

  • altered texture or consistency,

  • faster decay,

  • Bacteria or mold growth.

Optimal storage conditions

temperature

Store your products in a cool, dry place – ideally between 10–20 °C. Extreme heat or cold can impair stability and effectiveness.

humidity

High humidity can introduce moisture into the product and promote bacterial growth. Therefore, ensure a dry environment.

sunlight

Direct sunlight accelerates the aging process. UV rays can break down active ingredients and render products unusable more quickly.

Tips for proper storage

  • Use the original packaging: It offers the best protection against external influences.

  • Always close containers tightly: This prevents contact with air and moisture.

  • Do not store in the bathroom: It is often warm and humid there – not good conditions.

  • Remove cleanly: Always use clean hands or a spatula to avoid contamination.

  • Note the expiration date: Do not use products after this date.

  • Refrigeration (optional): Some products benefit from refrigeration in warm climates.
