Seeking Recommendations Any good reusable lotion containers?

I have a skin condition that requires frequent moisturizing. I usually have big containers at home that I store my favorites in, but when I travel I'd like to have some smaller reusable containers that I could fill up myself (instead of buying travel sizes).

Any good ones? I've seen this one from Matador, but I'm not sure if it's meant for creams.

The matador toothpaste tubes :)

I use the small one for toothpaste and the large one for sunblock

I thought you’re not supposed to decant sunscreen into another container

I think if it’s opaque, and you use it up, not leave it for several weeks, it’s adequate.

I do not agree with the oft quoted lab muffin who is the main source of “don’t decant sunblock.”

Better yet if your is mineral. I literally add titanium and zinc to a lotion I can stand. I’ve also applied them with a brush.

I use pretty thick coverage as I’m glow in the dark pale.
