I can’t open the ******* bottle!

D:

Any one here used Biore products?

This must be the hardest bottle I’ve ever tried to open…

I know how to open those “Soft Soap” bottles. You just twist the pump to the left one.

BUT THIS! This thing is POSSESSED!

I mean I’ve twisted it both ways and still NO DICE! (Urgh)

The only thing that happens is that the cap comes off.

I don’t want the cap to come off! I just want to be able to press on the pump and have soap come out!!!! GRSHODK FHJSFJNED FN PLFJNH E LFEWFJN JSWOP EJFJEW OFJNDK VIOGEHN DKGHNE OFGHOGH NEOGHNE!

save yourself a load of trouble and get your old bottle and pour the new stuff into it.
Then you can atomise the new container at your leisure :o)

If it’s a metal cap, run it under warm water then twist it off with a napkin. Bang it against the edge of the counter. If it’s plastic…erm, I actually usually just hand it over to someone stronger then me when it’s plastic…-.-

Bottles like Listerine are impossible for me to open. A large cap that you need to push down and twist at the same time - only causes frustration and I still cannot get it open. Is there a way to remove the insides of these bottles so they are easier to open? I don’t have children in the house - only arthritis in my hands due to Multiple Sclerosis. Any ideas?

Koran the vampire’s suggestion works.
It just needs some torque and that’s only done when you stabilize the “ribbed” cap and twist pump separately.

Ok, it’s sad when a college educated person has to look online to figure out how to open a biore bottle!! I swear I’m not dumb, these things are just really hard to open!! The arrow just doesn’t capture “push down REALLY hard and then turn.”

I had a pump bottle with the same problem. No matter how much I held the base in place and twisted the nozzle, nothing happened. Even if I pushed down or pulled up. In the end, all I did was tighten the base of the lid (the part with the thread) till it was very tight and held it in place while I twisted the nozzle in the opposite direction and then it popped right up. Magic. :)

anking - thank you! i can never open those pump bottles, but your advice worked perfectly for me. :) hold the base as tight as you can, then twist the nozzle in the opposite direction.
