5 DIY Beauty Hacks That Are Borderline Genius



1. Keep Lipstick Off Teeth

Lipstick on the teeth has plagued women for centuries. Nobody likes to smile and find out that they have red all along their pearly whites. A great way to avoid this is to simply wipe your lips from the inside out. After you finish applying your lipstick, just stick your finger in your mouth and pull it out. Remember making those “popping” noises when you were a kid? This is the same thing. Your finger will wipe away the excess lipstick and leave your teeth shiny white.

2. White Eye Shadow Makes Eyes Stand Out

White eye shadow is a great choice if you really want your eyes to stand out. You just have to layer your lid with white eye shadow and then add the colors that you want. The white will also keep those other colors from rubbing off before the end of the day and you can even add white to the top of the lid by the brow to really make your eyes pop.

3. Use Mascara as Eye Liner

If you have run out of eye liner and you are in a hurry, you can use your mascara instead. Just rub an eye liner brush over the mascara brush and then line your eyes. This works well if your mascara is the same color as the eye liner that you typically use and even if it’s not, it will help you to get your eyes lined in a pinch. The mascara will wash off your eye lids just like it does off your lashes.

4. Apply Concealer in a Triangle Shape

Concealing dark circles and bags under your eyes is much easier when you apply concealer properly. Instead of dotting on concealer in the pattern of your eyes, apply it in a triangle shape. Just dot it on under your eyes and blend downward in the triangle shape. It will perfectly cover up those dark circles and bags and give you the look that you want.

5. Make Your Own Gel Eyeliner

Gel eyeliner is a great way to make your eyes look smoldering and gel tends to last longer than traditional eyeliner pencils. If you notice that your eyeliner rubs off or smudges before the end of the day, you can use gel eyeliner in its place. The problem is that gel eyeliners can be a bit more expensive than pencils. So, just make your own. You just have to take a lighter and carefully heat the end of any eyeliner pencil to create gel eyeliner that looks great and will last all day. Via –

Contouring and Highlighting for Beginners


This is an easy, contouring and highlighting for beginners. Its purpose is to emphasize the angles of your face and hide your flaws. 



  • Apply a generous amount of highlighter below your eyes, on your cheeks, just where your cheekbone is, on your nose, chin and on the forehead with an upward motion.
  • Apply bronzer on the upper line of your forehead, on your cheekbones and around your nose. You can contour a little below your underlip.
  • Blend the colors well until they create shadows and are not obvious.

Bold Eye – Vibrant Lip Makeup

Like in fashion, rules in makeup should not be considered. The bolder and wilder you are, the more successful you might be in expressing yourself. Many times we have heard that if you are doing a strong eye makeup, you should do a nude lip, and the other way around too: red lipstick does not go with black smoky eyes. That has changed! You can do both a strong eye and lip and look fashionable and stylish in the same time. Here is one idea:



  • With the help of a very small thin brush, apply a dark eyeliner contour from the inner end of your eye to its outside.
  • Using brush and a colorful liquid eyeliner or an eyeshadow, draw a brightly colored line over the black one. Make it thicker and longer than the basic one.
  • Now do a bold lip in bright red!




Adding color to your makeup routine and being crazier with it is not a bad thing and the best time to do it is definitely summer!
