That last half inch....?

You know those plastic stand-up tubes of stuff (after shaving moisturiser in my case)? They appear to run out, and you squeeze down the tube and bend the top over to get the last drop out.

No it isn't. I've just cut the top and bottom of an apparently empty tube. In the nozzle, and still sticking to the inside of the bottom and the tube was about another teaspoon of stuff.

I ought to get out more.

I do the same with face cream and hand cream. Makes sense.

The ones that really get on my nerves are those with a 'pump action' - the darn tube never reaches to the bottom of the container.

The inside of the container base should be curved with the tube reaching to the lowest point of the curve - at least we'd stand a better chance of getting the last bits out .
