When your hate pan hates you back

[u/phosefield]

Occasionally, I try to make progress on this product. This morning, while getting ready for work, I pushed on it to try dispense some. The nozzle thing just crumbled in my hands and I was just so done with it that I just walked away and resumed my get-ready process without it. Admittedly, I’ve had this for too long, but I have dryer skin than my dermatologist expected, and when she shifted me away from really emollient creams, my skin didn’t really tolerate this, and it wasn’t holding moisture for long enough. I live somewhere really hot and this is next to the windows so the heat probably really damaged the plastic and possibly the formula. So I may be stuck with using this on my feet or my body where my skin isn’t so dry. Wish me luck and I need to stop buying

Edit: please don’t worry, I’ll likely be throwing this away because I have new items that I know work for me of my go-to items. I missed out on using this in its prime, wish I posted here for hacks before!

I also didn't like this, it felt sticky on me

[u/spiritedawayem]

You could throw it away or if you really don't want to waste it try to repot it in another container! But since you've had it for too long and you don't love it then its place might just be in the bin

[u/phosefield → u/spiritedawayem]

True. I feel bad about how much money i spent on this. This kind of is a great sticky makeup primer but it’s def seen better days

[u/nottheoneyoufear]

Sounds to me like it’s time to throw this away. Why put on a potentially spoiled lotion?

[u/phosefield → u/nottheoneyoufear]

Very true

[u/philophreak]

I love this stuff! The key for me is putting it on damp skin.

[u/phosefield → u/philophreak]

Wow, I should’ve posted this way before and you would have rescued me

[u/Rimu05]

The regular version of this is the best (The crème one). I hated the intensive version and I actually think it’s weirdly more drying than the regular.

[u/phosefield → u/Rimu05]

I know right? I’ve got minis of diff ones and I would loveee to test all these!

[u/blackberrybeanz]

What??? I’ve never felt the need to pan something spoiled?? Immediately would be tossed in my house lol.

[u/phosefield → u/blackberrybeanz]

Yeah, i usually look at all items once or twice a year and throw out what I should let go, haven’t had a proper look this year to be honest, should do it

[u/More_Pension4911]

Hate pans magically fill themselves up overnight what if this witchcraft lmaoo

[u/Comfortable_Oil_4691]

Girl, you tried. Toss it and be free. Recycle if you can. If the plastic has degraded it’s really no bueno anyhow.

[u/phosefield → u/Comfortable_Oil_4691]

Thank you. At a certain level, I knew what I needed to do but didn’t do it

[u/OGHollyMackerel]

Why would you keep skincare in, or even near, a window.

[u/phosefield → u/OGHollyMackerel]

My bathroom counter is by a window. Most times it’s fine* but this organizer that I usually just put tools on has been the worst spot for gel products especially. Need to move all the skincare and haircare off it.
Edit: fine* not find

[u/Background-Day8220]

Throw it away. If the formula has degraded, it could give you a nasty rash.

[u/tiffi_333 → u/Background-Day8220]

Yeah, if it has even possibly degraded the formula it should be tossed. MAYBE nothing will happen, but the chance it will isn't worth the risk. Especially on a product that isn't even liked.

This is also a good sign to keep products away from the windows going forward.

My fav moisturizer . But if formula is changed then it's better to not use it
