There are better ways to spend your money than tossing your essential oils in the trash. This saves you having to throw chemicals and goodie in the trash and saves those tubes to be refilled next session. We will see how you can utilize empty cosmetic tubes for your skincare!
You may think that empty cosmetic tubes are trash, but they can have an interesting second life. There are all sorts of tubes (like lotion tubes, lip balm tubes) that can be repurposed in fun ways. Rather than throwing them away, consider giving them a second act by reusing them for your beauty products. This is a great money saver since you don't have to fill the landfills with tubes, they are disposable and keep your money in your pocket!
Another creative way to play with your skincare is upcycling empty beauty tubes. You may be able to cut open a tube of lotion to retrieve the last of the cream that is too difficult to squeeze out. Then you can apply all of your favorite moisturizer and none of it will be wasted! You can also fill empty lip balm tubes with concocted lip balm by melting old lipstick and then pouring the melted formulation into the tubes. There are tons of options for your skincare routine!)
Refillable empty cosmetic tubes are the best way to save our earth and your money. Now, instead of having to purchase it new when you’re out of product, you can fill endless amount of your used tubes with your favorite creams, lotions or serums. Not only do you save money, but you also keep less plastic waste out of landfills. Refillable tubes can enable you to be kind to the environment while you enjoy your beauty products.
One fun way of upcycling your beauty products is re-using them to make some room for new stuff. For one, you can combine various lotions in an empty tube to form your very own custom moisturizer. When they’re empty, you can even save your empty tubes to hold small items like bobby pins, cotton swabs, or hair ties. You minimize waste and give your skincare routine a personal touch instead of taking to the landfill or recycling center.
