5 Beauty Hacks You Should Know

Every girl wants to know how to get better uses out of products already in their makeup bag! Here are 5 simple ways to create the latest looks without breaking the bank.

 

#1 Eye Shadow Primers Matter!

My personal favorite is Urban Decay Eden. Which can be found at Ulta or Sephora for $20.00

If you want to save money you can use a white eye shadow base over your entire eyelid. By doing this your allowing the true colors of the eye shadows to come through rather than the color that is created on top of your skin tone.

 

#2 No Need for Fake Lashes With The Right Tools

This can become a task that you might feel takes some time getting use to because If not done right you can make one big mess. Use a mascara brush, its a small but wide fan brush, use your mascara wand to apply the product to the mascara brush. Start by applying this product to the tops of your lashes. With this brush you should be able to get right up next to the lash line. After the tops are done (I suggest letting them dry a little before fully opening your eye) you now can paint the mascara to the underneath's of your top lashes getting right up against the eye lid once again. POW! Some huge beautiful natural lashes!

#3 Powdering Lips

I recommend BareMinerals Mineral Veil available at Ulta and Sephora for $21.00

Save your Lips! Apply your favorite lipstick, then press a tissue against your lips very lightly and powder across the tissue with a powder brush on your lips the translucent powder. You won't have to worry about re-applying your lipstick all night!

#4 Pulse Points!

Apply a thin line of Vaseline to your pulse points then squirt or dab on your favorite perfume or cologne. The Vaseline will hold the scent on your skin longer than it would if you were to just put it directly on your skin.

 

#5 Makeup Brush Wash

I bet every fabulous girl has these great items handy under their bathroom sink. If you don't a personal favorite product for everyday makeup brush cleaning is E.L.F Studio Daily Brush Cleaner $3 at Target. The recipe for your home-made makeup cleaner: 2 pumps of Dawn dish detergent, 1/4 cup white vinegar, and 1 cup of water. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse with warm water and set out to dry!
