Life changing beauty hacks that will save you time and money
Pinterest Beauty Hacks
Transform your bathroom into a spa by hanging a bundle of eucalyptus branches in the shower. Turn on the hot water and breathe in. Steam will release the herb’s relaxing aroma and essential oils (known to relieve congestion and help clear the respitory tract).
Try this quick fix for chapped lips. Wet a SUPER SOFT toothbrush and gently brush away dead skin.
Boost the effectiveness of your eyelash curler by blasting it with a quick dose of heat.
Store your nail striping tape in an old tape despenser. It will keep you organized and guarantees perfectly sized piece every time.
Don’t let tangled elastics slow you down. Slipping ’em out of the package and onto a carabiner will keep you neat and organized.
No eye makeup remover? No problem. A little vaseline on a cotton ball will take off stubborn shadow in seconds.
Tie an elastic band around a sticky polish lid to open it with ease.
Here’s your fast fix for a fake tan gone wrong. Take a shower and let the hot water soften your skin and open your pores. Next, dampen an exfolatior mitt (wring out excess water) and scrub up and down in a vertical motion. Watch your tan flake off and fade before your eyes.
Apply the exact amount of glue to fake eyelashes everytime with a bobby pin.
Dirty hair but no time to shower (and no dry shampoo)? Sprinkle a little baby powder into your roots. Wait a few minutes (allowing talc to absorb dirt or oil) and then brush out.
