I do the same thing as does my mom. How funny!!

During a visit to see my mom for her birthday (I'll blog about this soon!), I snapped these pictures of her empty cosmetic containers. I’ve told you before how she always uses every last drop of her makeup and beauty products, so I wanted to share these pictures!

I mean come on! That's incredible, right? Does she win the contest for most thorough use of products on the planet, or what? Do any of you use your jars as well as this? Very impressive mom. Yay mom!

Yes! I do the same thing.......Love Ava's idea. And it is awesome that she is only 14!
Yay for your mom!! I do this too- saves money and the environment!! I have also been trying to re-use empty containers by putting the homemade cosmetics in. Like masks and body scrubs.
LOVE IT!! Feels good to know you are doing your bit for the environment!! x
I sometimes put water in the bottom of an almost empty container and swish it around to get the residue sticking to the sides, it works for everything--- mustard, ketchup, liquid soap, shampoo, or cans of tomato sauce (which become diluted tomato "juice"). Very thrifty. Also try depositing little pieces of soap in a little water and get instant liquid soap. Just like Ben Franklin, probably, waste not want not.
I conserve and use up alot of my makeup too.
Great idea. Very proud of everyone who does this.
:)
Ha! Cool! Exactly what I have been doing for years too. I use a silicone spatula too to extract every precious drop of my lotions.
My mom does the same thing... I find it comforting that she is not the only one
