Introduction

Lipstick tubes are a common and popular item in many households. They’re easy to find and cheap, so it’s easy to stock up on them. However, did you know that lipstick tubes are useful even after they are empty? They can actually be reused as drinking straws, storage containers for small items in your purse or makeup bag, or even as a container for lip balm (or anything else) that comes with its own packaging. This post will explore some of these ways you can repurpose an otherwise disposable item once its contents have been used up!

They can be reused to store your lip balm.

• Lip balm is a common thing to store in lipstick tubes. The small size makes it easy for you to take your lip balm with you, and the wide opening means you can easily get at it when you need it.
• You can also use empty tubes for other things, like storing pencils or pens (without making a mess). They’re also great for keeping any small items that don’t fit anywhere else…and they look pretty cool on your desk!
• If you have large items that need storing, then an empty lipstick tube is the perfect way of doing this. It won’t damage anything inside the tube because there won’t be anything inside!

You can use them to store other small things in your purse.

You can also use empty tubes to keep other small items in your purse. For example, if you have a big tube of lip balm that is too big for your purse, but you don’t want to throw it away, you can fill an empty lipstick tube with the extra product and put it in your bag! You can also use them to store headphones or even pens.

You can even use them as mini-storage containers for money or other small objects like paper clips and bobby pins. This way, when not being used as storage containers for makeup (which are made out of plastic), they can be utilized elsewhere within your home or workplace for their original purpose: storing things!

They can be used as drinking straws.

Now that you know what to do with your empty lipstick tubes, let’s talk about how you can use them.

• Use a straw to drink juice or water. Straws are great for drinking all kinds of liquids, but if you want something that is less messy and more portable than a full glass of liquid, try using lipstick tubes as straws! This will save on the number of cups and plastic cups we use for beverages at home as well as when we’re out and about.
• Use a straw to drink coffee or tea. If you find yourself in need of an alternative method for getting your caffeine fix while on the go, consider using lipstick tubes as straws again! They’re perfect because they’re small enough not only to fit easily into your handbag but also come with lids so there’s no risking damage caused by spills!
