1. Broken lipstick?
Save it by melting it back together.
There’s nothing more annoying than buying a new lipstick and having it break in half on the first application. But the next time it happens, you can fix it by melting the two sections back together and then leaving it in the fridge to set. You can then put this into a plastic container or the lipstick.

 2. Squeeze every last drop out of your product.
You can get the most out of any product that comes in a squeezable tube by simply cutting off the end. Squeeze the leftovers into a resealable container or travel pot, Boots or super drug sell these.

3. Use peppermint oil with lip gloss to plump your lips.
Don’t waste your money on expensive lip plumping products. Instead, put a couple drops of peppermint oil on a Q-tip and swipe across your lips. Rub your lips together to make sure it’s coated evenly and then put your fave lip gloss on top. You can even add peppermint oil to a tube of lip gloss with a dropper.

4. Don’t throw out your broken powders.
Dropping a compact can seriously ruin a day ?, but there’s no need to despair. You can rebuild your compact by collecting the broken pieces, pouring in a couple of drops of rubbing alcohol, and using your fingers to reshape. Let it dry and your compact is good as new.

5. Use soap to set your brows.
Keep your eyebrows in place throughout the day and simultaneously make your brows look thicker with a bar of soap. The pear soap is amazing! Run a spoolie over the bar and brush it through the hairs for a feathery texture. Spraying it first with a hydrating spray is recommended.
