Product containers are thoughtfully designed by the brand founders to be functional in protecting the product’s active ingredients, practical in use and aesthetically pleasing on your vanity. But what can we do with these beautiful empty beauty containers once we finish the product?
Here are a few ways to give empty beauty jars a second life after giving them a good clean:
Florals and Plants
After picking up some fresh blooms from your local florist or your backyard, fill your container with water and add in flower food from your florist. If not, add a spoon of raw brown sugar into the water and give it a good stir. Make sure to give your flowers a fresh cut by trimming the stems at a 45-degree angle and insert into your container. Now they are ready to brighten up your home or office desk!
*Don’t forget to change the water every 2-3 days
