Getting Everything from the Tube and Keeping It Safe​ - December 2017

​After cutting the bottom (or top) off an "empty" tube of make-up or hand cream or toothpaste, I go one step further because sometimes air still gets in to cut tubes even with the other half on top and the edges can be sharp and a long way to the bottom! I keep tiny jars like the ones gift honey and jam come in or more often the tiny plastic lidded containers that takeaway sauces and mayonnaises come in (or you can buy a cheap bag of reusable ones at the $2 shop) and once I have cut the tube I get a spatula and clean it all out - throw the cut tube in the recycle bin if it has a symbol and put the contents into the little plastic lidded container with a lid and label it then u have a cute airtight pot of whatever you rescued :-) Much cuter, airtight and takes up less room! lol Good for travelling too! or overnight stays :-)
