Good morning my fellow beautylishers. For a few weeks now my hourglass veil primer's consistency has changed. Instead of its usual light silky texture it's very watery. At first I figured the product had separated, so I gave it a good shake. Unfortunately, it was still pumping out watery. So I thought maybe it was the way I was storing it(I had it laying on its side in a makeup drawer.). So I set it upright, on my vanity. No avail, still super watery. I just repurchased this bottle a month ago so I'm hoping it's not expired. Maybe I got a lemon. The product is still performing. But I dislike the very watery texture on my face. Have you experienced anything like this? Any thoughts?

I've never actually used that primer but my gut instinct is that if it's changed consistency then it's expired.

If you've only had it a short while then I'd take it back to where you got it from and complain. I don't think it should go off that quickly.

You can check how long it's good for by looking for the little jar icon with a number on the packaging if you want an idea for how long it should last after opening.

@Becky J I had figured that was the case. I suppose I picked up a lemon. :) Thank you for your input I appreciate it. Luckily sephora is really good about returns.

Sephora will take it back. Especially if you want to swap it out for another. Mine definitely isn't that consistency.

I have the same primer. However, mine is not that texture. My best advice would be to give the bottle a really good shake. Or try "straining" the water out. You could also go to sephora before returning it to see if an employee there has any tips.

@ Sonya P. Not always! But it recently changed to very watery. I don't really like the primer to begin with. But for the 60$ spent, it's disappointing!
