Scoop is missing or difficult to find.
Check the inside of the can carefully, as the scoop is designed to be stored within the powder or in a designated holder on the inner lid. If still missing, contact customer support for a replacement.
Powder seems clumped or discolored.
Check the expiry date on the can. If the product is within its expiry date and appears clumped, ensure the can has been stored in a cool, dry place, and has been properly sealed after opening. If clumping is severe or discoloration is present, do not use the product and contact customer support.
