What can you do with old cosmetic containers?

There are numerous creative ways to repurpose old cosmetic containers instead of simply throwing them away. Here are some ideas:

1. Storage Containers: Use them to store small items like jewelry, bobby pins, buttons, or even office supplies like paper clips and pushpins.

2. Travel Containers: Clean and refill them with travel-sized amounts of your favorite products for trips.

3. DIY Lip Balm or Solid Perfume: Clean out lipstick or lip balm containers and refill them with homemade lip balm or solid perfume.

4. Mini Plant Pots: Convert small containers into mini plant pots for succulents or small herbs.

5. Palette for Mixing: Use old eyeshadow palettes or compacts as mixing palettes for customizing makeup shades.

6. Custom Blush or Bronzer Palette: If you have several empty blush or bronzer containers, you can depot your favorite shades into a custom palette.

7. DIY Candles: Clean out containers and use them to make your own candles.

8. Pill Organizers: Use empty pill bottles or other small containers to organize and store medications or vitamins.

9. Craft Supplies: Store beads, sequins, or other small crafting supplies in them.

10. Gift Containers: Decorate and repurpose them as gift containers for small items.

Remember to thoroughly clean and sanitize containers before repurposing them, especially if they previously held cosmetic products.
