15 Awesome Makeup Tips For Your Makeup Routine
1. Use Every Drop of Liquid Makeup
We’ve all tried to squeeze the last speck out of a tube of liquid makeup before tossing it in the trash. Now, before it goes in the trash, cut off the cut end and use a spoon to scoop out all the rest into a plastic pod.
2. Make Lipstick Last Longer
This is one of the best lip treatments out there and provides long-lasting color for hours. Apply lipstick as you normally would and press half a tissue paper between your lips to soak up the excess. Place the other half of the napkin on your lips and apply translucent powder to the napkin to set the color.
3. Apply Perfume Correctly
For a long-lasting scent of perfume all day or night, simply spray it on your pulse points. If you apply it in the wrong way, its smell will quickly fade away, so it is useless to spray it all over your body.
4. Widen Your Eyes
If you want to look like Audrey Hepburn with big eyes, try this different mascara application. If you apply mascara towards the nose instead of up, your lashes will look thicker and your eyes will look bigger.
5. Improve Your Eyeshadow Color
You can use this simple trick to enhance any eyeshadow color. Take a white eyeliner and “paint” your eyelids. Next, take the eyeshadow color you want to use and apply it over the white eyeliner. The white bottom complements the eyeshadow color.
6. DIY Lip Gloss
If something is broken, it usually shows the inside of the basket. However, broken eyeshadow can still be very useful, so don’t throw it out too soon. To make homemade lip gloss, crush eye shadow into a powder and mix it with petroleum jelly (Vaseline).
7. Tame Your Eyebrows
Eyebrows are in fashion and big eyebrows are even more in fashion. However, thick, messy brows may not look as good, and there’s an easy way to deal with them without much effort. Apply a clear lip balm to your brows and shape them.
8. Reuse Dry Mascara
When the mascara dries, add a few drops of saline to the mascara and shake it well. The salt solution is a neutral lubricant that moisturizes the mascara so it can be reapplied. Another makeup item that can be avoided by disposing of immediately.
9. Maintain Eyelash Curl
Heated styling items work better than cold tools. If your eyelash curler is working fine but only for a short time, try heating the curler with a hair dryer first. Allow the lashes to cool slightly before curling them. The heat keeps the curls longer.
10. Keep Lipstick from Getting on Your Teeth
Have you ever walked into a party with a big smile on your face and found yourself wearing lipstick the whole time? To avoid embarrassing moments, keep this tip in mind. After you’ve finished painting your lips, place your finger inside your mouth and secure it around your finger. Wipe off excess lipstick with your fingers, not your teeth.
11. Increases the Volume of Eyelashes
You don’t have to spend hundreds of dollars on expensive mascara to lengthen and volumize your lashes when you can easily apply translucent powder between your lashes. You probably have the powder in your makeup bag and don’t spend a dime.
12. Cut Split Ends
If you’re starting to see split ends but don’t want or need a full cut just yet, try this neat trick. Take small sections of hair and twist them together. The raised bizarre locks are clearly visible. Use sharp scissors to cut split ends.

13. Perfecting French Manicure
The next trick is very simple but brilliant. If you want a quality manicure but don’t have the budget, try this DIY trick. Buy 20 small rubber bands. Take each one and wrap them around your finger on the nail and adjust the distance so you apply the polish for perfectly even edges.
14. Tame Your Baby Hair
An old toothbrush has a million uses and we all may think it has to do with cleaning, but after you clean an old toothbrush, you can use it to smooth and comb out the stuck baby hairs in your hair. You can also use some hairspray on your toothbrush to style your hair.
15. Frizzy Hair
This trick can be a blessing for those who deal with or struggle with frizzy hair every day. There are various reasons why curly hair becomes frizzy and one of them might surprise you. Use a towel to dry your hair! Towels actually create friction and frizz your hair. Instead, try drying your hair with a T-shirt or cotton pillowcase.
