Does anyone use a tan solution that has a factory foil seal on it when you buy it?
I have had 2 bottles of Sienna X go green before I even opened them recently.
Really annoyed at the waste of money as they were stored correctly (dark, cool cupboard in unheated room then once open I keep in fridge). Never happened to me before and have used them for years.
It isn't the hot weather btw as one bottle went green a few months ago and then another one a week ago.
I have discussed with Sienna and feel the supplier I bought them with has sold me old stock which they have stored incorrectly.
Anyhow - it has occurred to me that when buying from a beauty trade store - we have no control over how old the products are or how they have been stored as we have no way of knowing. Since tan solution shelf life is not that great anyway this is a problem.
I also think that since the bottles are just a screw cap with no seal - how do we know someone has not opened the bottle in the shop to have a smell of it etc?
It seems to be the luck of the draw what you buy at the moment and at the price Sienna x is - I don't think I want to keep pouring my solution (and money!) down the drain so am wondering if there is better protected solution out there.
