I just bought Folligen and CP Serum and would like to know where the best place to store them is? Can I store them in my drawer? Or is the fridge a better place?

thankyou

Also,

Do CP's need to be stored away from direct light?

And for that matter does emu oil also need to be stored away from direct light?

thankyou

Keeping products cool and out of direct light is best. Our products are somewhat like foods.

So could I store them in the fridge, or would that cause moisture to get into the products?

Does that include artificial light too?

I think the packaging probably took care most the concerns with light and moisture. My first two bottles of Exfol and CP Serum and jars of CP samples (old packaging without special air-tight pumps) were still effective after 2+ years, and they were left and stored in constant room temperature (AC/heat) in a moist bathroom.

We have stored some products in the refrigerator and they seem to last forever.

I looked up my first question. My products were 3.5 years old and were still effective without special storage measures or the current updated packaging.

Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but why wouldn't you want to refrigerate hydroxy acid products? I understand they should be out of direct sunlight, but aren't they compatible with a refrigerator temperature?
Thanks!

You could refrigerate hydroxy acid products.

Is there a statement on our websites about this?

I see, thanks for the reply.
I did not read this anywhere else other than in this thread, in the post just before mine.
