Trick for using up all of a sample
One thing that really struck me while packing was the sheer amount of samples I have. I mean a LOT. I thought I would share a little trick I like to do to use it up, it isn't anything terribly inventive but hey if it helps just one person... worth sharing eh?
I am always saving jars when I use them up I like to put the sample into these little jars so I actually can use the sample multiple times and don't have a little cut package on my sink that spills.You can't really tell how much you like anything after one use so this way you can try it a couple times.
Sample of a body cream

Old concealer jar

Throw it in your puse and you have a little jar of hand cream when you need it most. I usually put a label or write on it if I don't think I will remember what it is. This had a pretty distinct smell and texture though so it wasn't necessary.

i puncture all my samples with a pin and squeeze the stuff out slowly over days. that way it doesn't dry up inside the sleeve and it travels well. especially good for eye cream samples.
