Natural makeup artist and wellness guru Jessa Blades has the perfect hack for using those last little bits that aren't quite enough for a face wash (or to scoop out for a full spoonful): Add it to your a.m. beverage.

What to do when the coconut oil jar is almost totally empty? Pour your hot morning beverage (both tea or coffee work well) into the jar and swish around and then you get the good fats from the jar into your morning warm beverage... and your don't waste a drop of healthy oil! #selfcareiseverywhere

Seriously—just pour your morning drink of choice (tea and coffee both work) directly into the container, swish it around, and voila! Now your elixir has an added boost of healthy fats (and a touch of that sweet tropical flavor).

"You get the good fats from the jar into your morning warm beverage...and you don't waste a drop of healthy oil!" Blades says. Um, will this motivate me to keep up (or, okay, start) my oil-pulling routine so I can savor the sweet reward when I'm done with my supply? Definitely.

Pro tip: Lee Tilghman (of Lee From America) uses a similar technique to get every drop of almond butter from the jar. And for other multitasking a.m. beverages, try this coffee-avocado smoothie and Busy Philipps' skin-boosting Bulletproof coffee recipe.
