When you are caught in a beauty dilemma, you need a quick solution! In order for fast action to happen, health care products that are already available can be used.
Here are 5 Affordable Beauty Hacks that can make your life easier…
1. FOR YOUR SHINY FACE
To deal with your shiny face, you may use hand sanitizer or Sticky Notes (e.g. Post-it). Hand sanitizer has “dimethicone” that smoothens the skin like a primer and provides a protective coat locking in moisture. You may use this along the hairline, forehead, T-zone or cleavage.
Post-it or sticky notes remove the excessive oil on your face without ruining your make up. Just peel off a Post-it sticky part then dab it along your T-zone.
2. MULTI-PURPOSE PRODUCTS
Many of the health care products have multiple uses so stretch its capabilities to save more money. Here is a list of 4 multi-purpose products:
a. Toothpaste can double as pimple remover
b. Baby oil can double as a make-up remover
c. Nail polish cannot only personalize your jeans but it can also stop a run in your stockings.
d. Greek yogurt to reduce pimple inflammation and redness
3. FOR YOUR HAIR IRON BURNS
If you accidentally burn yourself with your hair iron or curling stick, use raw honey to alleviate the pain and provide antibacterial protection. Honey also keeps your skin hydrated and smooth.
