You may have seen the toothpaste commercials showing a toothbrush with toothpaste covering the entire length of bristles. Is this amount of toothpaste really necessary? In most cases it isn’t. One way you can tell is to check to see if there is any unfrothed toothpaste when you spit. Only using half of this amount will likely be plenty. So, go ahead and give it a try.
A similar idea applies to the pump soap dispensers. In most cases, when your hands aren’t extremely dirty, you won’t need a full pump of soap. Try using just a quarter pump or half a pump and see if it is enough.
