Hacks to Make Your Favorite Products Last Longer

December 27, 2016 Michael Orozco

We all know how frustrating it is when your favorite product has a few more drops left but you can’t quite get them.

Here are some hacks for extending the life of your favorite products:

Toothpaste

When the last few squeezes of toothpaste won’t come out, don’t toss it! Squeeze all the contents to the end of the tube and just cut it in half. Now you have access to every last drop.

Lipstick

When the stick gets small, use a Q-tip to get the rest out. Lipstick can be pricey and there’s no reason to toss those last few applications in the trash.

Clothes

Sometimes your clothes pill and get holes in them way sooner than you’d hope. Try hang drying them. The extra heat added from the dryer isn’t good for the longevity of your garments.

Candles

Some candles tend to burn pretty quickly and we barely get to enjoy them before they’re gone. Try sticking them in the freezer between uses. The freezer helps the candle burn slower so you’ll have your favorite candle for twice as long.
