Beauty Tips

So now I'm a major stumbler (look at previous post for more understanding).

And I stumbled across this from Elle.

Some beauty secrets revealed by using ordinary household items/something every girl has.

Can't wait to see if it really works!

#1

 

Buttons
Repurpose spare buttons by using them to keep pairs of earrings together: Most buttons have at least two holes in them, so simply place an earring in each opening to neatly store when not wearing. Photo: Jupiter Images

                           (I have an earring hanger thingy, but I loved the idea! Creative.)

#2

Eyebrow Brush
Stuck without a lint-remover? Use this handy makeup tool to remove unwanted fuzz from your shirt. Photo: Courtesy of Sephora

(Never would have thought of that, now I know!)

#3

  

Dryer Sheets

No time for a shampoo? Rub a dryer sheet on your hair to tame flyaways and make your hair smell shower fresh. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

#4

Unused Stockings Create a chic shrug by taking a pair of tights or stockings and cutting off the feet (or use a pair of footless tights to save a step). Place arms where legs would normally go and—voila!—you’ve created a sleek spring alternative to a shawl or cardigan. Take it a step further by cutting slashes into the fabric, à la Monique Lhuillier’s ballerina-inspired fall 2009 collection. Photo: Imaxtree

(Love, love, loveee this idea! Doesn't look like stockings at all, but some really awesome shirt things.
Favorite one!)

#5

Eggs
Strengthen hair by creating an egg yolk-and-olive oil hair mask. The protein in the egg yolk will toughen up tresses, while the olive oil will act as a conditioning agent. Photo: Jupiter Images

                                                                       (I wanna try this!)

#6



Honey
If your skin is sensitive and blotchy, apply a couple tablespoons of honey to your face and leave on for five to 10 minutes. The honey will moisturize, soothe, and help kill blemish-causing bacteria. Photo: Jupiter Images

( I have plenty of this, that's for sure! Since my daddy's a beekeeper & we got our own business: Bee Way Honey Pollination Inc. )

#7

Flat Iron
A hair straightener works great for ironing between buttons on your shirt, where a regular iron doesn’t fit. You can also use it for minor wrinkles on your blouse when you’re in a hurry. Photo: Courtesy of ghd

                           (Neat huh? Would have never even thought about it!)

#8

Vinegar
Considered a natural bleach and powerful cleanser, vinegar (just a dab) can reduce the blueness of bruise. This kitchen staple can also be used in your bubble bath to help prevent yeast infections. Tip: Try apple-cider vinegar for a less pungent smell. Photo: Jupiter Images

(My sister's friend moved into an apartment, & it had a certain smell to it. So she scrubbed everything down with vinegar & it actually helped. It's strong though!)

#9



Cornstarch
Detangle a knot in seconds: Rub cornstarch into stubborn knots on shoelaces, string, chain necklaces for greater grip and control. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

                  (My hair gets real knotty (hehe) & I'm definetly going to try this!)

#10



Oatmeal
Whether you have dry, itchy winter skin or discomfort from summer mosquito bites, mixing cooking oats into your bath will provide instant relief. Photo: Courtesy of amazon.com

                 (It would be weird to take a bath in oatmeal, but if it's worth it... maybe) 



                             Anyways, what do you think of these tips!? Will you try any?
