If you live a fast lifestyle, it can be difficult to find time for long beauty routines.
It can take at least an hour to finish a multiple-step skin-care routine.
Taking care of yourself is important, and that is why you should have days for pampering and relaxation.
However, for days when you need to hustle, you can still look your best with a bit of effort with my 5 instant beauty hacks!
Here are 5 instant beauty hacks that you can conveniently do in five minutes:
Ice-Cold Water for All-Day-Flawless Makeup
Jamsu or the Korean beauty hack of dunking a made-up face into ice-cold water, has been around for years. However, it still amazes beauty experts and enthusiasts what thirty seconds of submerging your face in freezing water can do. The key to this all-day-flawless makeup routine is to use a ton of baby powder to protect the face from moisture.
The cold water takes off the excess powder and doesn’t disturb all the makeup that’s under there. Additionally, the benefits of using ice water for the skin have been noted extensively. Click here to learn how to do jamsu.
No Hairdo, No Problem
Sometimes, hair can be fickle, and that is why bad hair days exist. This is especially true if you are maintaining textured hair, long locks, or colored tresses. There are also days when you need to prioritize getting enough rest over primping.
For all the times it applies, a wig is a quick solution to hair woes. If you want the seamless, believable, natural-hair look, go for wigs made with real human hair. They are more on the expensive side, but they’re investments that give their return right away. With proper care and maintenance, you can continue rocking the wig for ages.
Luscious, Pouty Kisser
Not everyone is born with Angelina Jolie’s lips, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be achieved. Thanks to cosmetic fillers for lips, people who dream of having poutier kissers can actually have it. The downside is that fillers can be expensive, and they usually dissolve in years or months, so they’re not a permanent solution.
The cheaper alternative is to buy products that help “swell” the lips. These lip products have a measured irritant that can make the lips swollen. While it can be harmless with proper use, it can be painful. Sometimes, the effects aren’t long-lasting.
Another way to go about having luscious lips is makeup. The technique is to apply lipstick normally then use a brush to apply a shimmery light eye shadow to the center of the lips only. The 3D effect makes your lips look full.
Combat Under-Eye Bags
Stress, lack of sleep, and a poor diet are some of the reasons a person has dark, puffy, or swollen bags under the eyes. Concealer can make the area look better, but there are other handy remedies. One popular beauty hack to depuff the under-eye skin is to apply cold green-tea bags on it for at least five minutes.
You can also use metal spoons if there are no tea bags available. Place the two spoons in the freezer for a few minutes, and then place them on the eyes for a few minutes to help tighten the eye area. With this extra step, makeup application will be smoother.
Take note that these hacks only work if your under-eye bags are not caused by genetics. Fortunately, you have several options in cosmetic procedures.
Longer-Lasting Curled Lashes
Fan of the curled lashes with mascara look? It can be frustrating to curl your eyelashes carefully every morning only to have them become straight a few minutes after you leave the house. Heat your eyelash curler with a hairdryer to make the lashes curled a lot longer. Be careful not to use the curler when it’s too hot, or you may end up singeing your lashes instead.
Having longer-lasting curled lashes means that your mascara will last longer. It prevents your holy grail product from going to waste because you don’t have to reapply it constantly throughout the day. Here’s a video tutorial on how you can do it at home.
