Brilio.net - Lip cream is now a favorite choice for many people because it can provide a fuller lip appearance and flawless makeup results. Compared to regular lipstick, lip cream has a creamier texture and good coverage , so the color is more intense and long-lasting. It's no wonder that many people rely on lip cream for various occasions, from everyday to special events.
However, there is one problem that lip cream users often experience, namely the texture tends to dry quickly in the packaging. This often happens when the lip cream is running out or rarely used for a long time. As a result, the product becomes difficult to apply, some even clump and cannot be used anymore.
Therefore, many people are looking for ways to keep lip cream durable and can be used until it is completely finished. Starting from adding a little special liquid, storing it in a certain position, to ensuring the packaging is always tightly closed. There are also those who choose to boil the lip cream and its packaging so that it is more liquid and can be used again.
However, if the lip cream packaging is not made of glass and melts easily, there is another trick that can be done. This trick was once done by TikTok user @gudangkosmetikpwt through one of the uploaded videos. He claimed to be able to take the remaining product in the packaging so that it could be used until it was completely finished.

As reported by briliobeauty.net from TikTok @gudangkosmetikpwt on Thursday (2/13), the trick is to open the inner lid of the lip cream. More precisely, the inside of the lip cream cream usually has a rubber cover that keeps the product from falling apart when taken. However, sometimes, this part actually makes it impossible to take the product completely.

Well, the way to open it is quite easy. First of all, prepare scissors. Then open the outer lip cream cap. Also, attach the scissors to the rubber on top of the lip cream. Then remove it by pulling the scissors until the rubber on the lip cream packaging comes off.

In the video, TikTok user @gudangkosmetikpwt immediately tries to take the lip cream product in the packaging. Who would have thought, compared to before, the lip cream product is easier to take. The reason is, the remaining lip cream at the bottom of the packaging is also not dry, so it is easier to apply.
To keep the lip cream soft and usable until it runs out, make sure to always close the packaging tightly after use. Excessive exposure to air can cause the texture to dry out quickly. In addition, store the lip cream in a cool place and avoid direct sunlight, because hot temperatures can cause the lip cream formula to thicken and dry out faster.
If the lip cream starts to dry out again, try adding a drop or two of liquid lip balm or face oil to it, then stir it with the applicator to make it smooth again. Avoid mixing water or other incompatible liquids, as this can change the formula and make the lip cream break down faster.
Also, use lip cream regularly so that it doesn't sit in the packaging for too long. Products that are rarely used tend to dry out faster.
If the lip cream is almost finished, use a small applicator or cotton bud to remove the remaining product that sticks to the walls of the packaging so that it is not wasted. This way, the lip cream can be kept durable and used until it is completely finished.
