Being devoted to all things beauty, you’ve probably got products stashed everywhere and are rarely caught in a beauty dilemma. But sometimes, you need a quick trick to save the day. Bookmark these beauty hacks, just in case…
CALM THOSE BROWS
Brows outta control and there isn’t a spoolie, brow gel or brow wax in sight? Grab the closest lip balm you can find and use your fingertips to smooth it over your brows, taming and shaping them as you go. .

A CLOSE SHAVE
When you’ve run out of shaving cream and can’t possibly go one more day without de-fuzzing, slather wet legs with a dollop of hair conditioner. It works just as well in a pinch.

LOVE YOUR LIPS
If your lips are looking and feeling worse for wear, and you can’t find one of your 10 hydrating lip balms, nourish them with a drop of facial oil. Simply massage one drop into lips to help heal and repair cracks and dryness.

FIGHT THE FUZZ
Is this crazy weather causing your frizz to get out of hand? Tame flyaways by coating your hands in a very light layer of body lotion or oil and gently running them over your lengths and ends. Oh hey there, smooth strands!

STRAIGHT LINES
If your eyeliner pencil’s broken and leaving the house without defined peepers is not an option, stress less. Just use a dark brown brow pencil instead! The same goes for your brows – a brown eyeliner can double up as a brow definer.

RECTIFY YOUR ROOTS
Hide visible roots in an instant by grabbing an eyeshadow that’s as close to your hair colour as possible. Dust an old toothbrush in it, then brush it over roots. How easy is that?!
