More or less concentrated in active ingredients, the day cream is made on the same base of water and oil, mixed using an emulsifier.
Thus, the day cream that we use daily in facial care can also be diverted to hydrate other parts of the body like legs or arms.
It can also be used to moisturize the hair and especially the ends, practical to avoid taking with you a special oil or cream!
This trick also works if the chosen day cream is too rich for the face:it can be used as a moisturizer on hands or feet which are generally drier and require more intense hydration.
To redraw the eyebrows
Generally used to make up the eyelashes and give us a doe look, mascara can also be used to reshape your eyebrows !
To use it subtly, eliminate the excess material on the brush and gently pass it over the eyebrows in small jerks. To avoid colors that are too dark or too light, opt for a black mascara if you are brunette or dark brown, and in shades of brown if you are light brown to blonde.
In eyeliner
No eyeliner on hand? Do not panic ! Mascara can perform the same function just as well. To use it, we take a little material on the brush using a fine eyeliner brush and apply it like a classic eyeliner. For the eyeliner mascara to last longer, we will prefer a waterproof mascara .
Whatever its color, lipstick can be declined in multiple forms!
In blush
If your lipstick is light, pink or beige tones, it will be ideal to use as a blush to bring a healthy glow to the face. Using a brush or your finger, we take a little product and stretch it slightly from the top of the cheekbones towards the temples.
In eye shadow
Another trick to divert your lipstick :use it as eyeshadow! The ideal will be to use liquid lipsticks, for an easier application on the eyelid. As with classic eyeshadows, choose light shades instead. for the day and darker shades for a more pronounced evening make-up.
To use your lipstick as eye shadow, apply a few touches of product on the mobile eyelid then blend everything with a blurring brush.
As a concealer
Dark circles, usually purple or brown in color, fade with a product of the opposite color. Red or orange lipsticks will then be ideal for finding a luminous complexion and refresh the eyes! To apply it well, apply the lipstick in hatched lines and then blend with your finger or a beauty blender type sponge. To avoid the too bright side, we will rather opt for matte lipsticks .
In varnish
What if your eye shadow could be used as nail polish ? It is indeed a simple base of colored pigments which, once reduced to powder, can be easily incorporated into a transparent base!
In the DIY trend , we dare to mix colors and renderings (iridescent, matte, etc.) to get an original, 100% personalized and natural manicure.
Shaded lips or highlighter
Very trendy at the moment, the shaded lips consists of creating a color gradient of different shades on the lips. To create a luminous and hypnotic effect, use a luminous and iridescent eyeshadow the same color as her lipstick, which is applied right in the middle of the mouth for a very original relief effect.
An iridescent eye shadow can also be used as a highlighter applied to the cheekbones to illuminate the face!
