Hack 1: Tame you baby hair with a toothbrush
Now that you are a college-going girl, wearing that overgrown baby hair near your temples is not an option.
It’s time to make sure your baby hair settles down and if your conditioner is not doing the trick on a bad day, use a tooth brush!
Just spritz some hair spray on a tooth brush and use this to brush the hair into place.
Hack 2: Dry your nail polish in one minute flat
One of the most time-consuming beauty processes is drying your nail paint. If you’ve noticed, using the hair-dryer on your fingers doesn’t help either.
To dry your nails in 1 minute flat, just dip your painted nails in a bowl full of ice cubes and water. This will seal the nail paint, dry it super quick and prevent it from chipping
Hack 3: Dealing with the dried-up mascara
You just bought a brand new mascara a couple of weeks ago and its already drying up? Drop in it a few drops of your lens solution to revive it.
Dried up or not, make sure you exhaust your mascara within 3 months of opening it to avoid flaky lashes and eye infections.
Hack 4: Smudge proof, perfect kajal
If you apply your kajal to the T in the morning and by mid-day it starts to smudge, here’s what you can do. After applying your kajal, just dab some loose powder on the area under your eyes, which will absorb any excess oil and pack the kajal in.
If you ask us, our pick is the quick and safe, Lakmé Eyeconic Kajal that is both waterproof and smudge-proof and will help you ace the perfect look with just one stroke.
Hack 5: Hide thinning hair
To hide thinning hair and create an illusion of thick long hair, you can dust an eye shadow of the colour closest to your hair, along your partition line. This will shade your scalp and make your mane look thicker than it is.
To accentuate your hair when you want to tie it up in a ponytail, use this trick along your hairline to make it look fuller.
Hack 6: Perfect plump lips
To get instantly plump lips, all you need to do is add peppermint oil to your regular lip gloss. This will add that much-needed plump shine to your regular glossy lips.
