8 Exceptional Beauty Hacks That Will Revolutionize Your Makeup Routine

The age of the Internet has seen the rise of several platforms on social media, where people can share their beauty tricks and tips with other people all over the world. This also means that you end up getting bombarded by way too many beauty hacks and do not know where to start! Well, we have made the job a lot easier for you. Here are some of the most effective and impressive beauty hacks, which will help you achieve the same effect that you would witness if you bought luxury makeup and opted to go under the knife to enhance your looks.

1. Baking Soda & Toothpaste To Eliminate Blackheads

Are you tired of blackheads constantly popping up on your face? Well, simply mix a little bit of toothpaste with baking soda and apply it gently to your face with the help of a soft toothbrush. Allow the mixture to rest on your face for a few minutes before washing off with lukewarm water. You should be aware that some types of toothpastes could cause irritation if applied on sensitive skin. If you feel that the toothpaste is causing a reaction with your skin, discontinue this method immediately.

2. Gaining Fuller Lips

Lip augmentation has become extremely popular amongst celebrities and models. However, the sight of needles and all the horrible failed surgeries can truly put anyone off from the thought. Instead, there is a much simpler way. The next time you are getting ready to go out, simply use a fork to poke at your lips for a couple of minutes. All that prodding will increase the blood flow in your lips causing them to increase in size. You can then apply your favorite lipstick or lip gloss and enjoy the look of your free lip augmentation.

3. Reducing Redness From Pimples

The worst kind of pimples are those that stick out like a sore thumb with their unusual redness. However, here’s a nifty solution! Just apply a few drops of eye drops solution to a cotton swab and gently rub on the affected regions on your face. The solution will not only help ease the redness caused by the pimple, it will also help bring down the associated swelling.

4. Perfect Cat Eyes Using Eyeliner

Creating dramatic wings with your eyeliner is a great way to achieve that intriguing feline look. However, applying eyeliner can prove to be really arduous at times, especially when you possess shaky hands! Well, there is a rather simple solution to this problem – bobby pins.

Not only are they useful in creating some unique hairdos, but they also help when applying eyeliner. Simply coat the edge of the bobby pin with the eyeliner and place it on the edge of your eye. Now just color in the rest with the eyeliner, and voilà! You will have the perfect cat eyes every time with minimal effort.

5. Making Curled Eyelashes Last Longer

Curled eyelashes are great until you start to realize that they are returning to their original state. Well, there is a way to make them stay curled for longer periods of time. Simply use a hairdryer to heat up the eyelash curler before using them to curl your eyelashes. The heat will cause your eyelashes to stay in their curled position for much longer! This is a great way to maintain your look, especially when you are on longer outings.

6. Making Lipstick With Crayons

Did you know that you could use crayons to make your very own DIY lipsticks? All you need is a little bit of coconut oil! Crush up the crayon using a mortar and pestle, and mix in the coconut oil. Keep adding the oil until you reach the consistency of your choice. Now use a cotton swab to apply the mixture to your lips and there you have it – your very own homemade lipstick! You can also take it one step further in terms of experimenting by mixing different crayons to get unique colors.

7. Using A Plastic Spoon While Applying Mascara

This one is my favorite. How many times have you tried applying mascara only to have it smudge at the worst time possible? However, this problem can be easily resolved – all you need is a plastic spoon! Simply place the spoon behind your eyelashes and apply the mascara. The plastic spoon will help prevent any sort of smudging, as well as make the entire process a lot quicker.

8. Using A Toothbrush To Tame Baby Hairs

The last thing you would want when you finish braiding your hair is for tiny baby hairs sticking out! These annoying strands of hair can really spoil the entire look. Well, using a new toothbrush, however, can help put them back in place! Once everything looks in place, simply apply some hairspray and you are good to go.

These were 8 simple beauty hacks that can help you up your makeup game without having to burn a hole in your pocket or resort to surgery. Make sure you let us know which tip is your favorite in the comments below!
