One way to avoid contaminating your beauty products is by using a dedicated spatula, rather than your fingers, to scoop out moisturizer. Spatulas not only help keep an open jar free of whatever bacteria may be lingering on your fingertips, they also scoop out the recommended amount of product so that you’re not wasting too much. Just do a quick wash after every use, and save those free spatulas that come with a jar of moisturizer for other uses like decanting.
