7 Beauty Hacks Every Woman Should Know
Beauty Hacks 1

Baby Powder

Use as Eyelash Thickener

So, you probably already know the ol' dry shampoo trick. But did you know baby powder can also make your eyelashes thicker and longer? After applying a coat of mascara, use a cotton swab or a clean mascara brush to swipe a touch of powder on your lashes. Then apply your second coat of mascara. Vavavoom.

Johnson's Baby Powder ($5)

Beauty Hacks 2

Concealer

Use as Eye Shadow Primer

To prevent your "Gilded Goddess" from slipping off by coffee number two, add a touch of concealer to your lids before applying shadow.

BareMinerals Correcting Concealer ($20)

Beauty Hacks 3

Clear Mascara

Use as Eyebrow Gel

Or to tame flyaways. Or as primer before your mascara. It's really a hero in terms of multitasking.

Maybelline Great Lash Mascara ($4)

Beauty Hacks 5

Cold Cream

Use as Makeup Remover

Do we sound like a broken record yet? Well, it's for good reason. This stuff works wonders. 

Pond's Cold Cream Cleanser ($4)

Beauty Hacks 4

Cream Blush

Use as Lip Color

Or vice versa. Just be sure the product falls more in the pink or redish hue. Peach or coral can get tricky.  

Stila Covertible Color ($25)

Beauty Hacks 6

Petroleum Jelly

Use as Cuticle Cream

Trust us, there's no need to purchase a cream specifically for your cuticles. This jar does the trick for a mere $4. 

Vaseline ($4)

Beauty Hacks 7

Taupe Eyeshadow

Use as Eyebrow Pencil

Don't believe us? Just watch this video. 

Urban Decay Naked3 ($54)
