Where exactly should I store my ingredients, especially the liquid ones (lactic acid, aha's, parabens etc.)?

Should they be kept in the fridge or would a cool and dark closet be enough? TIA.

A cool, dark place should be fine.

If you want to store them for a longer period of time to protect them than the fridge is the best option. Make sure it's not overly cold though. Otherwise, a cool dark place is fine. If you have a cold cellar that would be a great place to keep them granted it is not damp.

If you do store them in the fridge, you might find that some things will need to return to room temp before you can use them in recipes. Acids won't, but some other things will.

I only store my SKbio items in the fridge. I keep other antioxidants just in cool and dark places.
