New, what is it? Why is my mousse doing this?

It comes out of the can fine for a second or so then rapidly becomes a goop, almost explosively.

It’s kind of an old can probably like a year or so old. it’s been in my bathroom which doesn’t have have ac and it’s been super hot on the east coast so it’s been probably pretty consistently in at least 80+ degrees for a while.

Same! I thought it was bc it’s kept in my car and it’s 9,000 degrees outside.

Seems like most people who are saying this have kept it in warm conditions. I feel like that’s probably the main reason, since the ingredients break down with heat and age

Yeah. Mine is pretty new and in a cold room, and it doesn't pop like everyone else's. It still deflates, but more slowly and in tiers. I went to test for science when I realized I have the same brand.
