Understanding the beauty needs of everyone, businesses have come up with countless expensive cosmetics and skincare products. They make us easily burn a hole in our pocket in the blink of an eye. The following 19 small tips will help you save a considerable amount of money while still feeling confident and beautiful.
1. Add salt to shampoo to make hair look thicker and shinier
No one wants their hair to look thin and lifeless. To make your hair look thicker and smoother, you can mix salt with shampoo in a ratio of 3:2. This mixture will help your hair regain its smoothness and appear thicker.
2. Use baby powder to rescue greasy hair
If you are too busy and forget to wash your hair, there is a quick tip to save your hair from becoming greasy and sticky. Just use baby powder. Sprinkle some powder onto your hair and brush it through. Your hair will look much less greasy.
3. Use a sieve to replace a diffuser nozzle for a hairdryer
If your hairdryer does not have a diffuser nozzle, you can use a sieve as a replacement. Clean the sieve, cover it over your hair, and blow-dry. The sieve will work as a diffuser nozzle, helping your hair to dry faster without causing damage to the hair.
4. Use a hair steamer cap to deeply absorb nutrients into the hair
After applying hair mask to your hair, wrap your hair and secure it with clips. Then wear a hair steamer cap and leave it on for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the cap and wash your hair without blow-drying. With this method, the nutrients from the hair mask will penetrate deeper into your hair, providing better results.
5. Reuse dried-out eyeliner pencil
If you urgently need to use an eyeliner pencil but it is dried out, there is a quick fix. Open the end of the pencil, then take out and reverse the lead. You will be able to continue using the eyeliner pencil. Another method is to soak the pencil lead in warm water for about 30 seconds. Wipe off the lead and put it back in, and the eyeliner pencil will continue to dispense the ink as usual.
6. Store eye cream in the fridge to reduce eye bags
Store eye cream in the fridge instead of leaving it outside. When using, the cold temperature will help reduce the puffiness of your under-eye area.
7. Make an exfoliating scrub with coconut oil and coffee
Mix coconut oil with coffee in a ratio of 1:1 and massage it onto your face in circular motions for 5 minutes, then rinse off with warm water. Your skin will appear brighter. You can use this mixture to exfoliate your body as well.
8. Add moisturizer to foundation to lighten the shade
If you accidentally buy foundation that is too dark for your skin, add a little moisturizer to the foundation. It will help lighten the shade of the foundation.
9. Remove blackheads with a cinnamon face mask
Mix one teaspoon of cinnamon powder with three teaspoons of honey. Apply the mixture evenly on your face in circular motions for 5 minutes, then rinse off with warm water. Your blackheads will gradually disappear and your skin will appear noticeably brighter.
10. Minimize pore size with a jade roller
Gently roll a jade roller on your face before applying makeup to make your pores appear smaller and help your makeup last longer. Additionally, using a jade roller regularly can help prevent wrinkles and delay the aging process. If your face cannot handle the cold jade roller, wrap it in a clean cloth before rolling it on your face.
11. Create a DIY fan makeup brush
If you don’t have a fan brush, you can use a hair clip. Clip it onto a regular makeup brush. The bristles will spread out evenly, creating a perfect fan brush.
12. Use baby shampoo to clean makeup brushes
You don’t need to buy expensive brush cleansers. Baby shampoo can also perfectly clean your brushes.
13. Use toothpaste to treat pimples
After cleansing your face and patting it dry, apply a small amount of toothpaste directly onto the pimple. Leave it on for 2 hours, then wipe off the areas with toothpaste using a damp cloth. Finally, wash your face with warm water and pat it dry.
14. Exfoliate lips with a toothbrush
Gently brush your lips with a toothbrush. The dead skin layers will peel off, leaving your lips softer. Additionally, it will improve blood circulation, making your lips plumper and more sensual. If your face cannot handle the cold of the toothbrush, wrap it in a clean cloth before brushing.
15. Use translucent powder to make lipstick last longer
After applying lipstick, place a thin layer of tissue on your lips. Then use translucent powder to dust over the tissue, and your lipstick will last longer.
16. “Fix” a broken lipstick
A broken lipstick is a nightmare for girls. There is a way to “fix” it by heating the broken end under a flame and lightly pressing the two broken pieces together. Put the lipstick in the fridge for about 45 minutes, then take it out and use it as usual.
17. Use coconut oil to nourish nails
If your nails are prone to breakage and are weak, apply coconut oil to them. Not only will it strengthen your nails, but coconut oil also helps prevent fungal infections that can affect the nails.
18. Treat cracked heels
If your heels are cracked and dry, apply moisturizer to your heels and wear socks overnight. In the morning, take off the socks, and you will notice a significant improvement. Continue doing this until your heels are healed.
19. Spray perfume correctly
Some people are unsure of the correct spots to spray perfume and end up spraying it everywhere, causing discomfort to those around them. Spray perfume on the areas shown in the picture: hair, behind the ears, inside the elbows, wrists, and knees.
