"What do you do with empty nail striping bottles?"
My answer is save them. Once the polish is gone from the bottle you can still reuse the brush that comes with it with other nail polishes. Simply clean out any remaining nail polish from the bottle and brush by adding nail polish remover shaking and dumping out the residue onto paper towels.
Don't dump down the drain because there is always the potential for clogging down the road. The paper towels will absorb the polish residue and the rest of the nail polish remover will simply evaporate over time.
Once the bottle and brush are clean you can either pour more polish into it (if you have a small enough funnel) OR simply leave it empty and use the brush with other nail polishes. Just remember to clean the brush before you put it away so you're not mixing colors accidently.
