Ever tossed a mascara tube, wishing you could use it for your new lash serum? I’ve been there—frustrated with serums and no applicator in sight! Here’s how I turned my old mascara tube into the perfect DIY serum wand (without any gunky leftovers): 💡 First, soak the wand and tube in warm water and a gentle makeup remover—this melts away stubborn mascara. Why? Because leftover product can mess with your new serum and even irritate your eyes! 📌 Swirl the wand inside, then let it sit for a few hours (overnight for waterproof formulas). Patience pays off—this step really breaks down the residue. ✅ After dumping out the remover, wash everything with dish soap and warm water. Don’t forget to pop out the rubber stopper and scrub underneath—mascara loves to hide there! ⚠️ Rinse with rubbing alcohol to sterilize, then let everything air-dry in the sun. Now you’ve got a squeaky-clean tube ready for your favorite serum! Would you rather DIY your applicator or buy a new one?
