Weird Stuff to Help You Look Gorgeous

What does Scotch tape, a sewing needle, a micro-fiber cloth, business card and a toothpick have in common?  Why they can help you look gorgeous duuuuh!!  There's stuff lying around your house right now that you can use in your beauty routine, one you'll even find in your husband's man cave!

Scotch tape:  Like that winged eyeshadow look but can't seem to get it to look right?  Just take a piece of Scotch tape and stick it near your eye slanted upwards from the outside corner.  Then apply your eyeshadow like a kindergartner if you want and after you remove the tape you'll have a perfect, clean, winged eyeshadow application!  Just remember to remove the tape before you leave the house you don't want to look like a weirdo!!!

Sewing needle:  Your eyelashes stuck together?  This sucks especially once the mascara has already dried, however if you take a sewing needle and slide the tip in between the two lashes that are stuck it will nicely separate them with ease.  Just don't do this drunk, because you may end up poking your eye out instead!  Something tells me though, if you're drunk, you probably wouldn't notice they're stuck together in the first place and your priority would be to ensure you have clothes on when you left the house not separated lashes..........moving on.

Micro-fiber cloth:  You can kill two birds with one stone on this one, get great looking skin while pissing off your husband at the same time!  That's right that micro-fiber cloth he uses for his car works wonders on your face!  Of course a clean, never been used cloth is what we're aiming for here.  My husband usually buys his in packs.  The micro-fiber cloth is great at pulling the dirt and grime out of your pores and exfoliating your skin at the same time, leaving it baby soft.  Awesome addition to your normal skin care routine and el cheapo!!!

Business card:  You can use this to help you get a clean line with your eyeliner when trying to achieve a winged look, it can also double for applying winged eyeshadow (in case your not into the whole tape "thang").  As posted in an earlier blog, it can help with mistake proof mascara applications by placing it behind your upper and lower lashes when you're applying it.

Toothpick:  If you like to sport false lashes, and who doesn't sometimes?  It's always fun to hooker it up for a night even if you're just hanging at the house, especially if you want some get'um get'um.  Just put eyelash glue on the toothpick and in a rolling motion, apply it onto the eyelash band.  Simple, quick and clean.
