I saw a reader tip from a woman\u2019s magazine about getting the last bit of skin care lotion from the tube and I decided to try it.  Some anti-aging skin care lotions are breathtakingly pricey \u2013 $60.00 or more per tube. If your skin care lotion is in this price range, you will see considerable savings from this tip.<\/p>\n

\"ScissorsBasically, once you have squeezed every last bit from the tube, you simply snip off the end of the tube.  A considerable amount of lotion remains inside on the sides of the tube. In addition,an even larger amount of  lotion remains in the tip and mouth of the tube.  I estimate that 10 \u2013 20% of the lotion can be recovered this way.<\/p>\n

When I tried this with two different tubes, I had a comfortable week\u2019s worth of extra lotion from one tube and over two weeks of use from another.  I was absolutely delighted.<\/p>\n

This works with anti-aging skin care lotion, moisturizing lotion, other types of skin care lotion.  It would be very beneficial for a prescription tube of lotion.   I estimated that I have saved several dollars already.<\/p>\n

It was easy, effective, frugal, and made use of items that I already had \u2026 that makes it a Fat Dollar money saving tip.<\/p>\n
