We Tested Tube Squeezers to Get the Most Product Out

“Toothpaste tube squeezers,” as they’re often called, can be used for more than just toothpaste (you can even use them with groceries). Although they come in a few different designs and materials, they all exist to ensure you get your money’s worth for the products. But how well do they work, and are they convenient and comfortable to use?

We tried four different squeezer designs with various squeezing mechanisms on a full 6-ounce tube of toothpaste, a 1.89-fluid-ounce tube of moisturizer, and a small lip balm to help you find one right for you. One model dispensed a full half-ounce less toothpaste than the others.
