Clear Push-Up Tubes

[christinak]

I bought 10 of the clear tubes (push up kind) for lotion bars...I think from Bulk Apothecary. I hate them! While the lotion bars turned out great, they don't stay up when you push them so it's kind of a balancing act...pushing the bar against your body while pushing the tube up from the bottom

I didn't want the deodorant tubes because they look like....deodorant! Does anybody use any other kind of tubes? Im thinking of just going with a lotion bar in a tin or something. It's a bummer, I was really excited about the tubes!

What size are you looking for?
MMS has Lotion Bar tubes that are 0.75 oz. I'm not sure if those are push up ones or not.
I use MMS's Bigger Lip Balm Tubes for solid lotion. They hold 1/2 an oz and are twist up. https://www.thesage.com/catalog/LipBalmContainers.html#LipBalmTubesandCaps,0.15ozSize

I've heard that that's a common problem with the push up ones

They cost 57cents each when u buy 144 and up, otherwise they cost 77cents

I'm curious to know if you ordered the ones from WSP and how do you like them if you did. I order the ones you were originally using and haven't had any complaints ... just wondering if you prefered the WSP ones - I'd definetly have to up my price on the sticks if I went to the 2oz ones.

Thanks!
Lori

You know, I use the ones from BB, I just hold the bottom up with my finger until I get what I need and then it can go back down til next time. I usually explein that to my customers too. I hope you find what you need!

I use the clear 2oz Twist up tubes from EBB. They have worked great for me for lotion bars and deodorants.
