@silverlifter may I asked where did you buy that white plastic thing on the end of your Cella cream tube from?
Houken 66 Deluxe 13/16 Half Hollow - Semogue 820 - Cella Epic Sandalo Crema - Chanel Égoïste Splash - Sukin Moisturiser
I've being trying to find one that isn't metal, that won't rust over time.
Cheers

Art supply store. Painters use them to get every drop of their exhorbitantly expensive paints from their tubes. I got a pack of them here (my son is a painter, so he got the surplus):
MASTERSON PAINT SAVER KEYS PACKET 24
Masterson Paint Saver Keys (Tube Wringer Keys) help artists remove every ounce of paint from the tube without it crimping or cracking. They pay for themselves with the first use. The set includes 24 Paint Saver Keys in 3 assorted sizes: 5 Large (3-1/8" long, 2-5/16" opening) 7.94cm x 5.87cm...
