A thrifty tip

I know lots of folks practice thriftiness by cutting open tubes to use the remaining product, whether that's toothpaste or lotion. I thought I would share an easy tip to then keep what's left fresh for longer without having to use saran wrap, ziploc, etc. 

I think I got at least ten more uses out of both this face mask and sunscreen after cutting open the tube!

When I've squeezed out and used as much product as I can, I'll cut about the top 1/3 of the tube off. I make sure to use whatever product is left on the inside of the cut piece and wipe it clean, and then use the piece as a cap. Easy and effective!
