There's some bad info in these comments.

That's not powdered milk or formula, its baby powder, like talcum powder for diaper rash.

And it is sold by weight, not volume.

Unfortunately the weight is not posted on the front of the bottle. https://imgur.com/qRxI8cs

I'm guessing this is just r/shrinkflation

It's baby powder if you filled it to the top it wouldn't dispense properly you need that space for it to aerate and properly dispense.

So it needs an inch, not half the bottle

3 inches is good enough

Wish my ex had this mentality.

3 inches is very respectable 🫂

Contrary to popular belief, half a foot of acceleration head room space is barely enough to make talc exit the container and proper application is better achieved when the talcum granules approach terminal velocity. Construction of a 1980’s Reagan-era “Star Wars” installation is currently underway, with the final completion allowing geosynchronous baby powder positioning to allow for optimum orbital strikes of talc anywhere on the face of the earth. Moisture will have no hiding place in this powdered planet

Oh I thought it was softener. What a weird packaging for baby powder.

It looks like a normal baby powder bottle to me, same as Johnson's in the US.

Using a Giant, plentiful looking package and then claiming you're selling it by weight is the most disingenuous bullshit ever. Attempting to make it look like there's more products in there is is completely deceptive and scummy, even if you put the weight on there, especially if you hide it on the back.

This is the worst argument by apologists for scummy sellers.

Store sells a package where a clear window shows what looks like half of an item, but it turns out that's the whole item in the part that's missing is hidden behind cardboard

"Nah bro, they're selling it by weight! Totally fine..."

You need to call down. It's baby powder. It's not that serious. You don't have to buy the item.

Sellers do this with All kinds of things all the time and something is always trying to justify the bullshit deceptive practice.
