Storage and shelf life

It is best to store the products in a dry place, away from direct sunlight. Gitti also recommends not leaving the bottles open longer than necessary.

The products have a shelf life of 12 months after opening and 30 months unopened.

To prolong shelf life, the product should always be stored tightly closed, in a dry place and protected from direct sunlight and heat.

Disposal

To recycle the packaging correctly, we recommend the following:

1. Empty the bottle of residue.

2. The lid can be disposed of with normal household waste.

3. The empty glass bottle can be returned in the glass container for recycling.

By following these steps, you'll help ensure proper waste sorting and contribute to a more responsible handling of cosmetic products.
