How to Remove Those Pesky Essential Oil Orifice Reducers and Rollerball Fitments Simply and Easily!
Sep 3rd 2019
It's easier than you think!
How many times have you had to use your fingernail or some other flat device like a flat head screwdriver to try and get those last drops of precious essentials oils out of the bottom of the bottle or refill the bottle? What's worse is when you've recently had your nails done and a bottle of your favorite essential oil gets down to no more drops coming out. There are much easier ways! I'm going to show you two ways to get those tight fitting orifice reducers and rollerball fitments out of the essential oil bottle effortlessly.
Method 1:
This method has you using the lid of the essential oil bottle as leverage. When you need to get the orifice reducer out of the bottle grab the lid in one hand and the essential oil bottle that needs the orifice reducer removed in the other. Simply place the lid at an angle and position the edge of the essential oil bottle lid under the edge of the orifice reducer towards the top of how you're holding it your hand until you feel a little pressure that the lid has caught the edge of the plastic orifice reducer. Gently but firmly pry the orifice reducer in an upwards fashion until it pops out. Don't apply too much pressure or the orifice reducer might fly through the air and you might accidentally spill some of that precious essential oil that you're trying to use every last drop of! To put the reducer back in the bottle, simply put the reducer in the lid, position the reducer in the bottle, and screw the lid back on.
This method also works with rollerball fitments when using the 10ml lid from the roller bottle, although not quite as easily as removing orifice reducers. There are times, when this method will not remove the orifice reducer or rollerball fitment on a glass bottle.
Method 2:
This method never fails and is as easy as eating apple pie! Grab one of our inexpensive Essential Oil Bottle Opener Key Tools for Orifice Reducers and Rollerball Fitments!
