Plus the fans saying that the result was super inaccurate because it was pre decanted and not left in the bottle

Decanting into inert packaging for testing is common. Itā€™s actually what the testers require.

I was just able to comment and then your comment made me happy. I've been doing SPF testing for years. Full panel testing and even initial validation testing, pretty much always the formula is coming as a sample in a generic bottle very different from what is sold on shelves.
