oil dropper falling apart...

ok...I know this has been brought up before but I can't find the post! I have (2) 1 oz oils that the rubber ring on the underneath of the lid has basically disintegrate and the glass dropper part fell completely out. I can't even close the bottles now because the top part came completely off when the ring fell apart.! What did you all do to prevent this from happening or were you able to? The bottles aren't old and they are about 1/2 full. Happened with a pom and a tt. Any fixes or tricks on how I can still use the oils without having to wait until another one of my bottles is empty so I can pour it into another one?

You can get eyedropper bottles at Amazon.

I had thought about that but I don't have a prime account and the shipping would probably cost more than the bottles.

one more question...I have in the past purchased a set of (3) 1 oz oils in different scents. I assume this is not offered any longer as I can't find it. Does anyone know if this set will be coming back? I really liked these little 1 oz bottles in the sets.

I don't know but I had a couple that did that and I actually threw them out because the rubber had disintegrated and I was worried it had disintegrated into the oil! I didn't want to take the risk. I've never had that happen before with other brands of oil. Very strange!

Your local drugstore probably carries eye droppers - at least mine does.

Re: oil dropper falling apart...

You can get them on EBay. A set of 6 glass dropper bottles in a 1/2 oz or 1 oz size for around $7 or a little less with free shipping. They have amber, blue, green, clear. I would not buy the clear. I have some of the 1 oz. Guess I should order a set of 6 of the 1/2 oz so when my small Wen oil bottles disintegrate I will have the small ones to put them in. So far have not had a problem with them. Wonder which oil in them is causing the reaction to the rubber/plastic?

Or any natural food store would probably have them, too.

You can also call the #800 for Chaz's company and see if they will send you the droppers. They are good about replacing pumps, so I don't see why they couldn't replace droppers, too.

Re: oil dropper falling apart...

This happened to my lavender oil. I just re-bottled it but I'm curious about why this would happen. Would any oil break down rubber or some ingredient in these oils?

Love the products but not the delivery systems/packaging.
