It's the Small Things

Hi all! I thought I would put together a short post on some of my top 5 tried and tested beauty hacks. Here it goes:

1. Apply your bobby pins correctly! 

If you have been placing your bobby pins straight side into your scalp – you’ve been doing it wrong! By placing the wavy side in you get better grip.

2. Hairspray for fly away hair

For those days you are having trouble taming those fly away hairs, spray a little hairspray on a fine tooth comb and run through the hair. Fly away hairs gone – magic!

3. Apply eyeshadow over liquid eyeliner

If you find that your liquid eyeliner looks a bit harsh on it’s own, this is the way to tone it down a bit. Apply some charcoal brown eyeshadow over it once the eyeliner is fully dry.

4. Apply your concealor correctly

Apply your concealor in a triangle shape with the base directly under your eye and the point toward your cheek instead of a round shape under your eyes. This is more flattering for your face and creates a more contoured look.

5. Apply conditioner to your hair before shampoo

It may sound a bit convoluted. You’re probably thinking but shampoo goes before conditioner? If you apply the conditioner first  then shampoo and condition again at the very end, it will help add more moisture to your hair. It will also protect it from damage while washing.
