I don't know which are which, here's how I will describe, and which ones I hate. I need to get the ones I like but i don't know what each are called.
Here's 4 kinds I have:

1) Crystal clear plastic - but are very hard, can barely squeeze them. (vapure,hangsen use them). Too hard to squeeze but at least I don't taste the plastic. They do seem like they "crease" if you bend too much too

2) Altcig uses these in their 6ml sample bottles. I like. they're kinda sturdy translucent but cloudy. I think The Vapor Room uses them too for 3ml samples

3) SOFT Cloudy translucent bottles that are real easy to squeeze - real real soft. I HATE THESE. I can actually taste the plastic. I need to avoid like the plague.

4) Opaque, hard, sort of like #2, but instead of clear they are opaque. I kinda like these. Cignot uses them for their sample BASIC line.

can you help me distinguish?
