Is the yellow part oil-based?

IF your here for help, then i suggest you do what was asked earlier and list what flavors you put in this juice(that includes the manufacturer of the flavors)? separation like this isn't normal.

If the clear part is VG, did you shake it and it re-separated? We really need more (and accurate) details to know what is going on.

You should be fine, just give it a very good shake this time.

It is not normal, but not unheard of, especially if the mix is VG heavy. There are a few flavors that do this.

Personally, I would get new batch of flavoring and see if it does the same thing.

the clear part is vg and the flavoring is pg based so i m guessing the batch was just vg heavy i added more pg shaken it really well and it seems to be fine it hasn't separated

TFA's Red Hot flavor does this, too.

> * Note: cinnamaldehyde can vary from being slightly yellow to very yellow, and so there will be color variations with this flavor. Also, this flavor does not combine well with VG-only blends.

Emphasis mine.

If your totally sure you don't have a single drop of oil in that bottle then gently heat it and shake rigorously numerous times.

Okay, so evidently I'm weird in having this happen to loads of my mixes. Almost everything I make separates a bit until it has been well steeped and shaken a lot. I also mix in the bottle so there isn't much shaking room. None of my flavors are oil based, they are all pg based and used frequently in everyone else's mixes.
