I love learning a good beauty hack, whether it’s something totally bizarre like lightening armpits with potatoes or more mainstream ways to keep your lipstick lasting all day. Some of my favorite beauty hacks include items I already have around the house and always have me saying, “Why didn’t I think of that?”
Cue me saying, “Why didn’t I think of that?” 10 times in a row, because Teen Vogue just searched their beauty tips arsenal to determine their Top 10. All of these tips are beyond easy, and most take under a minute to do!
One that I am definitely going to try the next time I want an effortless smoky eye look is to blink after applying my top eyeliner. Seriously: All you have to do is blink for a sexy, smudged look! When it comes to removing that sexy eye (or any other hard-to-remove makeup), all you have to do is press a makeup remover-saturated cotton pad down for two to three seconds, and then the makeup glides right off! That sounds so much better for skin than scrubbing.
Another amazing tip? See what your eyebrows will look like after you pluck them by first coloring the hairs you plan to pluck with a nude concealer pencil. Just think about how many eyebrow disasters you can avoid by previewing your pluck — genius!
The number one tip comes from none other than Beyoncé’s makeup artist, Sir John, who has an easy tip for making “waking up like this” look a whole lot better. Check out this video for that tip and more, and please SHARE with anyone who loves beauty hacks.
