It drives me nuts that the Aveeno Lotion pump bottles that I buy are unable to pump the bottom layer of lotion out of the bottle. I hate wasting a drop of this lotion as it is not cheap(although just purchased it on sale at target for $5.84-great deal). Normally I leave the bottle upside down to get the last bit out, but was just tired of doing that, so I cut the bottle in half using an exact-o knife. you wouldn’t believe how much lotion was left in the bottom–enough to fill 2-1.5fl oz. travel size containers–perfect for flying! I am definitely going to do this every time I get to the bottom of the container. Such a waste not to.
