It never hurts to be a little smarter about your spending, even if you're a true makeup fanatic like us. We decided to tell you how to save space in your cosmetic bag and money in your wallet.
Use hair balm instead of shaving foam
You will be surprised, but the machine glides on the leg, on which the balm is applied, so easily and confidently that it easily competes with your boyfriend's shaving foam. That's why you no longer need to throw away conditioners that don't fit your hair.
Remove long-lasting makeup with olive oil
If suddenly there is nothing at hand except simple micellar water, and you have real Halloween makeup on your face, do not rush to give up. A little olive oil will easily "melt" the most persistent makeup, although, of course, hydrophilic oil would do better.
Replace the creamy blush with a matching lipstick
This is already a rather hackneyed and well-known trick, but nevertheless you should not forget about it. And here it's not so much about saving money as about harmonizing the image. Light pigment on the cheeks, which matches the color of the lips, will perfectly refresh the entire make-up and easily integrate into it.
The famous makeup artist Andrey Shilkov told us about this technique. It turns out that if you gently apply just a little cosmetic oil on the face on top of the powder, the skin will glow, as if you are starring in an advertisement for the perfect foundation.
Replace eyebrow gel with hairspray
And this is Natalia Chistyakova-Ionova's favorite technique. You just need to spray the hairspray on the eyebrow brush and style the hairs. Done!
Use pearlescent beige eyeshadow instead of highlighter
All dry textures are actually similar to each other. There is no difference between eyebrow shadows and eyeshadows of the same shade. So a highlighter can easily be a shade with a small, fine beige glitter from your favorite palette. The main thing is to choose a color that is as close as possible to your skin tone!
Any base in makeup is a rather complex and controversial question. All makeup artists disagree on whether she is needed at all. And while they are thinking, you can try using a regular concealer on the eyelids.
Turn chapstick into an eyebrow fixer
The consistency of the chapstick will help set the eyebrows and make the hairs a little thicker. The main thing is not to overdo it!
Use depilatory cream as a cuticle softener
Of course, both of these products can be difficult to find at home. But if you suddenly have a depilatory cream, you can easily use it to soften the cuticle when you are doing your own manicure.
Apply clear lip gloss to eyelids for a wet shadow effect
Believe it or not, this technique is the only sure way to repeat the incredibly cool wet makeup that we see on the glossy pages. No eyelid product can give you the shine and the mirror-like shine that regular lip gloss does.
