[Everything doTERRA] Re: oil in sample bottles has disappeared

One suggestion - make sure the orifice reducer is seated completely into the sample bottle opening.  Use any solid flat object - like the handle of a dinner knife - to firmly press the reducer into place.  If not completely seated, the cap will not properly seal the bottle and allow leakage and/or evaporation. 

I have one of the 49-bottle 5/8 dram sample cases.  After seeing this post, I checked each of my samples in that case.  A few of the bottles have been in the case for a while (one for almost a year, I believe), and has traveled with me.  All still have oil in them.

Hi everyone.  I had two key chain cases filled with first aid oils in 5/8 dram sample bottles. These had stayed in a backpack, for maybe 6 months to a year. The backpack itself was rarely used in that time. The backpack started to smell like oregano so I examined the contents of the keychain cases. I noticed some of the caps on the bottles were a bit loose. (I would not have put them in there without tightening the caps first.) All of the oils have disappeared to varying degrees. Some were completely empty, while some lost half, etc. Bummer, since some of my most expensive oils were in there.

Does anyone have any knowledge or experience of the integrity of the sample bottles and caps? Did they spill out or evaporate due to a poor cap-to-bottle connection? And finally, is it ridiculous to do as I did and store these sample bottles until "who knows when"?
