Hello, I ordered this product (Ionic Silica) and it just arrived. The product didn't have a freshness seal. Is this normal?

Mine had a seal. I have ordered many good state liquid mineral products and they all have a seal.

Hello Jonnie, ionic minerals don't expire. Their is nothing in the product that makes it go bad and to have an expiration date we need to prove what causes the product to go bad. Since we cannot prove it were not aloud to put an expiration date.

Mine didn't have a fresh seal either, but the cap was very secure. It also reads "Professional Strength", since the normal everyday public doesn't buy this product, that may be why. I have been taking this for years with no problems.

Yes, that was my experience as well. Unfortunately, the entire contents seems to have dried up in my tube, which is really too bad because it does seem to work well otherwise. It may be better to purchase this sealant in a much smaller quantity.

Do not use this product if been opened. I would be concerned cause I don't really trust ebay.. People that sell their things usally comes broken , or used not like new...Honestly, I would throw the bottle away or make a complain because if you get an infection or something, and you don't have proof who it came from, then that's a big issue. I would just recommend you bying this product here cause it actually comes from the ISO Company...

I just got it in the mail today. but sadly the clear seems to be the same finish as the standard :| bummer I had to break the packaging seal to check, now it's probably not returnable. oh well...now I have a replacement at least :)

I would return it if possible. It may be old, or as you suspect, a knock-off, but unless it's put into a lab test, there's no way you and I could know. My Egyptian Magic is always fresh and smooth, so something is clearly faulty with the jar you have.

Hi:) Yes, the product did come sealed and does not appear to be "watered down" in any fashion. C

I always examine the package when it arrives to make sure that it is still sealed. The entire box should we wrapped in sealed plastic and the jar should have a foil seal over the product that is firmly attached to the jar. If it is not, then you need to return it. I have only had one instance of this in 10 years of ordering. I returned it and received a prompt refund and I never ordered through that vendor again. All other vendors have provided the exact product as the high end department stores.

You need to check with the people you order from for date of expiration. I never have mine long enough to worry about that, it's always fresh.

Mine didn't come with insulation. I didn't have a melting problem, but I am not sure about at the height of summer, particularly shipping to HI. FYI, I prefer now to order from another vendor in GB, as the larger volume didn't taste quite right. A bit dried out, or stale. Kind of woody. The lot I got had Arabic writing on, so I am not sure if they were a particular recipe for shipping to that area. The Flakes from GB are sold in lots of 6, and are occasionally the smaller size, but taste just right.

Mine was not sealed. I've purchased 4 and none have been sealed - no issues, always fresh and a great product.

Sounds like something wrong with the stone. When mine arrived it was fine, no smell and no chalky residue.

I had a box from years back, and it used to come just inside the box like macaroni. I don't remember whether there was an inside seal, but I certainly did not have tapioca all over the outside on this new batch. I opened the boxes and poured them into a sealed canister for easy use (because boxes don't pour well), so I can't help there---just do not remember. However, it sounds like one or more of your boxes was not well sealed or had a breach, and I would not be comfortable with that until I checked them all & found which one.

I ordered mine around February. Just now, it's getting caked due to moisture. If you have it in a truly airtight jar, it should keep for a very long time. The little moisture-fighting packet gets less effective after awhile. But then, I'm just finishing it after 7 months.

I also noticed that the expiration date was just coming due when I got mine. I wasn't overly concerned as it says Best before not expires or do not use after. Also it is hebs, seasoning, salt etc. so again I wasn't overly concerned, not really happy that they were near or at the best by date.

I ordered mine from Amazon, and mine seemed like it was completely sealed, but I'm missing the Secret Service code. My barcode/UPC is still there, and the cellophane looked okay, but no secret service code. I'm wondering if I should return it. I'm not particularly worried about the code, but I do want an authentic product.

It's more like toothpaste, check to make sure it's not expired. The only other thing I can think it would be is if it got extremely hot at some point. The stuff works wonders when it's not expired. Good luck!
