I think those products that separate are those that are serum mixed with oil cos water and oil tend to separate if I'm not wrong. If it's lotion or cream, I think storing in the fridge is fine.

These products are mainly Clinique and I've been storing them here for a while and I've never had them separate so far. Do you think that the product will be just as effective when I'm ready to use them?

I know some products may separate with the refrigeration. If yours is natural/organic, then it's advisable to put them in the fridge. Apart from those that come without preservative at all, I put mine outside in a cool dry place. Well, it depends on the product. I know some products may separate with the refrigeration.

By doing this do you believe that I'm prolonging their shelve life and will the product product be just as effective once I go to use it in the future?

I live in India. Do u think the weather here is a problem? <font color="#990033"><strong>vartika</strong>: Weather could be a factor. But I'm not too sure if storing nail polish in the fridge really extend its shelf life as compared to storing in cool places, away from direct heat or sunlight. Perhaps you can try. Mine has always been in a cupboard and it last at least 5 years. Only need to put thinner.</font> Should nailpaints be refrigerated?No matter what I do, nailpaints always seem to dry before i even finish using half of it… I live in India.
