For those of you who
are not professionals, and those of you who probably are but don’t carry your tools
with you; I’m sharing a list of 15 makeup hacks I’ve been gathering from a few
different sources to make our lives a little easier.
1. Turn a pencil eyeliner into a gel formula
with the help of a match or lighter.
2. Cover your eyelid with white liner to make
any eye shadow shade pop.
3. Draw your cat-eye first, and then fill in
the open space
for a perfect winged liner application every single time.
4. Use a spoon to create the perfect winged
liner.
5. Draw a slanted hashtag at the outer corner
of your eye,
and then blend it for an instantly smokey effect.
6. Use a spoon to avoid mascara marks on your upper
eye lid.
7. Add eye purpose saline solution to a dry mascara
formula, it will re-wet it.
(For emergencies only, remember you should change your mascara every three months)
8. Heat your eyelash curler with a hair dryer,
it will make your lashes curl easier.
9. Dust on translucent powder in between coats
of mascara to plump up your lashes.
10. Apply eyelash glue to fake eyelashes using
the ti of a clean bobby pin.
11. If you want a long-lasting lip color, lay a
tissue over your mouth after applying
your favorite lipstick, and then dust
translucent powder over it to set the color.
12. Mix loose pigments with a salve or
petroleum jelly to make your own custom lip-gloss.
13. Conceal dark circles and puffy eyes the
right way by creating a triangle with your cover-up.
14. Make contouring look more natural by using
a pencil, pen,
or makeup brush handle as your guide to finding exactly where
your cheekbone is.
15. Map
the contours of your face with a gel eyebrow pencil,
since it’s easier to apply
precisely and blend in.
