Isn’t it annoying when a lipstick runs out but you can see there’s loads more in the base but it’s just unusable! I have such a simple trick to ensure that we use all of the product that we buy.
So when a lipstick runs to the base I scrape the remains in a little clear pot then use a cotton bud or lip brush to use from the pot and apply to my lips! It’s surprising how long the remainder of the lipstick lasts. Especially if it’s your favourite colour, it’s such a shame to say goodbye when there’s still so much more product to use!!
Good idea! I think you do well to get the lipstick to a point wher you can actually do this – mine never get that low haha
And thanks for following! 🙂 x

I used to scrape it with a lip brush right from the tube.

I don’t mind running out of lipstick because it gives me an excuse to buy more 🙂

I usually use a little brush but it’s a good idea to keep it in a tub!
