As the lockdown 4.0 is about to commence in our nation, one of our concerns is regarding running out of the skincare products. While you can order essential products online, if you’re unlucky to be staying in a red zone then the chances of buying your essential beauty supplies online are also less. These difficult times call for some clever hacks to make most of your leftover skincare products. With some tips and tricks, you can actually make these skincare products last for a long time until things get back to normal.

If you’re almost out of your usual shampoo, add a few drops of water in the shampoo bottle and allow it to rest upside down. This will help to get a few more gentle hair washes using the leftover products. You can also do the same with your hair conditioner.

To ensure zero waste, try to scoop out your beauty products from its container using a small spatula or a cleaned ice cream stick. This will ensure it goes up to some extra days without repurchasing it.

If your moisturising cream is almost over, add in a few drops of any facial oil and give it shake to be able to use it for some time. In this way, you will only require half of the usual amount as oil does the job for you.

If you are a fan of facial wipes and want to avoid running out of it then cut them in half to use it efficiently. This will help them to last for a long time without worrying.
