Occasionally, small bubbles of air can become trapped within the product. If it stops dispensing, hold the pump pointing downwards and use your other hand to gently squeeze the bottom of the tube, like a toothpaste tube. Slowly move your hand up the tube while pressing the pump continuously, and the product should start to flow again.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Medik8","offers":[{"title":"30ml","offer_id":64886508028281,"sku":"P08836-AP","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0722\/6812\/0358\/files\/CrystalRetinal11.jpg?v=1780938547","url":"https:\/\/www.adoreyourskin.co.uk\/products\/medik8-crystal-retinal-1-almost-perfect-damaged-box","provider":"Adore Your Skin","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
