Out of the Ordinary Beauty Tips that Work!

1) Powder Your Roots.  I swear by dry shampoo, but sometimes the cash flow my not allow me to buy it. If your hairline starts to look greasy, dig up a big, fluffy makeup brush, and dip it into a pot of loose powder. Tap it once on the back of your hand to remove the excess, then dust it over your roots & comb it through. It mops up oil and blends into your strands

2) Cure dry feet with Vaseline. So summer is fast approaching and we all have to get our feet sandal ready! So slather on the Vaseline or any type of body moisturizer onto your feet, and put on socks before bed to dissolve tough calluses and dry areas overnight.

3)Soften Your Bod with Avocado. Take a ripe avocado, remove the pit and skin, and mash it up in a bowl. Slather it over whatever body part you need to soften (works for face and body), let it sit for 20 minutes, and then rinse off. Your skin will be sooo soft — avocado is a natural moisturizer. 

4) Buff with Baking Soda. Looking for the pre-base summer tan with a self tanner but end up looking orange and streaky?? If you find yourself streaking (not glowing) after applying self-tanner, put some baking soda on a loofah, and scrub away the stripes.

5) Boost Body Lotion with Baby Oil. If you're craving shiny legs that aren't greasy, blend a drop of baby oil into your normal body lotion for extra luster. 

6) Freeze Your Eyeliner. If the tip of your eyeliner pencil crumbles and smears on your lids, store the liner in the freezer for 15 minutes before use so the tip is firm and goes across your skin smoothly.

7) Use Toothpaste on a Zit. Use just a pea-size amount. Let sit for 15 minutes to absorb the oil so the pimple won't get more clogged, then wash off.

8) Heat Up Your Eye Lash Curler. If you have stick-straight lashes, try blasting your metal eyelash curler with a hair dryer for a couple seconds to heat it up so your lashes bend more easily. And use waterproof mascara. The formula dries faster than other mascaras, so it sets the curl more effectively.

9) Customize Your Body Lotion. Instead of shelling out for an expensive perfumed body product, you can make your own by pouring a few drops of fragrance into any scent-free lotion. Rub it on-the scent will last for hours.
