Answer
Hello! Thank you for your question regarding cleaning and reusing the plastic bottles for lotion.
I understand you'd like to know the best way to clean and sterilize the plastic bottles you purchased, specifically for refilling lotion. You're asking if boiling is necessary or if wiping with alcohol is sufficient, and if the bottles and caps can withstand boiling.
My available tools are designed to search for information about product ingredients and formulations, not the properties of packaging materials like plastic bottles. Providing specific advice on cleaning methods, especially regarding boiling, requires knowing the type of plastic the bottles and caps are made from, as different plastics have different heat tolerances. I do not have access to this specific information about the bottles you purchased.
Generally, for reusing plastic bottles, it's recommended to wash them thoroughly with soap and water first. For specific sterilization methods like using alcohol or boiling (if the plastic is heat-resistant), I recommend contacting the shop or seller where you purchased the bottles directly. They will have the most accurate information about the type of plastic used and the recommended care instructions for the packaging.
I hope this helps! If you have any questions about ingredients or other products, feel free to ask.
