How should I store this product?

I just received 3 tubes of cream. I am on vacation in my motorhome and during the day it gets VERY hot inside. Should I referigerate it? The last tub I used actually went all watery and I am thinking it was the heat.

Heat will destroy it. Cold wil preserve it.

Hi there If you're concerned do put it in the fridge. We have had the cream sit for 2-3 days in a post box in the desert. The customer said temps were above 40C, but the cream was still fine. The melting point of progesterone 126 °C (259 °F), even this doesn't denature it. But a very high heat will effect the oil content, although we use caprylic/capric triglycerides which is an extremely stable oil. We have had another occasion where it also sat in a post box for 2-3 days and froze. This was in Sweden where the temps had dropped to -30C. We also make a preservative free cream for a customer, and we have to freeze it for her. We've done this for several years now and it still works. Take care Wray
