The pump is not working properlyUpdated a year ago

You may experience this with products that use an "airless pump" delivery system. Airless pump dispensers utilize a vacuum system to dispense and keep the product fresh. Airless packaging helps to keep air and contaminates out of the product, which enhances the formula's stability and effectiveness. When using the product for the first time, you may need to "prime" the dispenser. There is a disk that pushes the product to the top which can become stuck, and you may need to bang the bottom of the bottle 3-4 times on a flat-hard surface to loosen the disk, then pump the dispenser slowly about 15-20 times upside down. After it starts pumping you can pump right side up as normal. if the dispenser stops working at any time, simply repeat the "priming" steps. We do not recommend attempting to dismantle the package. If priming does not work, turn your product over to find a very small hole at the bottom of the bottle. Try inserting a paper clip into this hole to raise the disk of the product and trigger the pump. Please Contact Us if you are still having trouble.
