Thanks @Perry , that might be one of the reasons.

I check the weight every day, and jars are only lightly screwed, not closed.

And maybe to make the bigger problem that the temperature in my country is very hot, at noon is usually 32-35 degrees Celsius.

@jemolian I have tried with propylene glycol and glycerin. But fail.

Can you recommend some milder humectants?

TheSocksTooBig, jemolian, thanks for your advice.

I avoid using humectants b/c when applied to skin, they draw water from the inside skin, not water from the air. and my case is not allowed to use them.

Do you know of other ways to avoid evaporation without using a humectants?
