Keep the jar tightly sealed: After each use, ensure the lid is securely closed to prevent contamination and drying out.

Store in a cool, dry place: Avoid direct sunlight, excessive heat, and humid environments, as these can cause the oils to spoil and degrade the herbs. A bathroom shelf away from the shower or a bedroom vanity is ideal.

Avoid introducing water: Since moisture can promote bacterial growth, we recommend using a dry spoon or scoop to take out the product rather than wet hands.

Refrigerate for extended freshness: If you won’t be using the scrub for a while, refrigerating it can help prolong its shelf life by keeping the oils from going rancid and maintaining the natural properties of the herbs.

Check for signs of spoilage: Products may develop a change in smell or texture over time. If you notice an off smell or oil separation that doesn’t blend easily, it’s best to discard the product.
