We know it’s annoying when you accidentally run out of your favourite skin care product, so we have a great tip for staying on top your beauty stash.

How to see how much product you have left

To get an idea of how much product you have left, switch your mobile phone torch on and lie the phone on a flat surface before placing the product on the torch light.

This quick light trick will illuminate the packaging and reveal how much skin care product you have left to use.

You can use this trick to check how much product you have left and it’s also a great way to make sure you’ve used all your product up before you recycle the packaging.

Another way to know how much product you have left is by the weight or the product. If the tube feels light, the likelihood is that you’re getting low and that you need to place your next order.
