I thought today I would introduce you all to the world of hacks with my top ten beauty and skincare hacks that are simple and everyone can do. 1. To warm up your eyelash curlers, put your curlers in your bra when starting to do your makeup to make them warmer for a longer and lasting curl. This will also work with your thighs if you are sat down or in a hurry you can use your hairdryer for a few seconds.


2. Have pencil eyeliner but need gel liner? Use a lighter to heat up your pencil liner to create the best liquid liner.
 3. Mascara is also a really good alternative for liquid liner. By using a liner brush, get a little bit of mascara from the tip of the brush and apply it like you would liquid liner.

 4. Conditioner works well as shaving cream leaving your skin feeling silky smooth just like you shaving cream would; that’s where the conditioner goes... 5. Use a bobby pin to get the last bits of any beauty product or toothpaste out so you get your money’s worth!

 6. Mix sugar and oil with your favourite flavour and you will get a great lip scrub for when you have chapped lips.


 7. Use oats in your bath to create a soothing bath. Simply blend the oats and use the oats like you would with bubble bath.  8. Use half a lemon and sugar to remove dead skin and also acne. sprinkle the sugar on the half of the lemon and apply to the skin in circular motions to get the dead skin cells. 9. Crayons and Coconut oil make for a good replacement for lip gloss.
