Fuckin' gross.

Ulta Beauty employees are accusing the company of selling used makeup
The former Ulta employee, who has not disclosed the location where she worked, claimed that managers from her store instructed employees to repackage and reseal used items before placing them back on the shelves to be repurchased.
Account abandoned.

Going to get a large mason jar for a hot water bottle in my sleeping bag. If I heat it up in the pot of water for a while I should be safe to pour boiling water into right? Pretty sure they are designed for that but don't want to fuck myself up.

Yeah, it will be fine. They can handle temps above normal boiling.

A proper hot water bottle will be safer. Last thing you want in your bed is broken glass and boiling water.

Negative. Boiling water in a mason jar doesn't work.

One shattered on me like that.

I'm not boiling it in the jar I'm heating the jar in the water.

Edit, fuck this. I'm getting a steel bottle.

Mine shattered like GCF on his period after pouring boiled tea in there (no ice).

Steel is a good choice.

If you want to stop glass breaking when you pour in boiling water you place a metal spoon in it. Have you never had an Irish coffee?

A mason jar that can't handle boiling water?

How are you gonna can anything with a jar you can't boil?
