Material: Storing Copier Toner

Hello, folks. I busted open some damaged toner cartridges and got the toner out for using as a colorant in things like the hatch lips.

How do you store it? My understanding is that the stuff reacts to heat and light. So, I currently have it in the fridge to combat heat. It's in zip lock bags now, but I intend to encase them in something else to block light. But, do they react to light itself, or the heat from light?

Anyway, what's the proper storage method for toner?

Universal tints are easier

Not only messy, but toxic
