**Beauty Hacks and Secrets**

As someone who has been doing this for years, I've learned a thing or two about how to make your beauty routine easier and more efficient. In this article, I'll be sharing some of my favorite hacks and secrets that I think you'll find useful.

First up, let's talk about clear mascara. So many of us struggle with clumpy lashes, but there's a simple solution. To avoid clumpy mascara, simply take a cotton swab or a Q-tip and gently wipe away any excess product from your upper lash line. This will help prevent clumps from forming and keep your lashes looking clean and defined all day long.

Next, I want to share with you my favorite cleavage hack. Now, I know what you're thinking - who wants to talk about cleavage hacks? But trust me, this one is a game-changer. The key to achieving perfect cleavage is using the right bra. I've found that a strapless and backless bra works best, as it creates a natural-looking shape without padding or underwire. To take it to the next level, use a sticky bra liner to help smooth out any bumps or imperfections. Simply apply the liner to each side of your breast and pull it together to create a seamless look.

Another hack that I think is really useful is using powder sunscreen. We all know that sunscreen is essential for protecting our skin from the sun's harsh rays, but traditional sunscreens can be messy and greasy. Powder sunscreen, on the other hand, is lightweight and non-greasy, making it perfect for use under makeup or throughout the day. I love using a color science SPF 50 powder sunscreen - it's amazing at matting down oil and keeping my skin looking smooth and even.

Speaking of beauty products, have you ever tried using body oils or beauty oils to make fragrance last longer? I swear by this technique, which involves applying a small amount of oil to your pulse points before wearing perfume. The oil acts as a barrier, trapping the scent and making it last longer on your skin. It's a simple trick that makes all the difference in how long your fragrance stays with you.

Finally, let's talk about Contouring - or rather, getting a perfectly straight nose Contour. If you have a bump on your nose (like I do), it can be tricky to get a smooth, even look when using Contour. That's why I use a simple trick involving an expired store card and my nose contour makeup. By applying the product in a downward motion along the curve of my nose, I'm able to achieve a seamless, straight look that lasts all day long.

**More Beauty Secrets**

But those are just a few of my favorite beauty hacks - there are many more secrets up my sleeve. From DIY lash extensions to hair and nail tutorials, I've got you covered. In the comments below, let me know which hack you found most useful (or share your own secret trick!) and be sure to check out my other beauty videos for even more tips and tricks.

**Dude Hacks**

And finally, if you're a guy looking for some dude hacks - no judgment here! I've got one solution for unibrow situations that's surprisingly simple: use duct tape. Yes, you read that right - just take a piece of duct tape and apply it to your upper lip where the unibrow is most prominent, and voila - gone! It's not the most glamorous hack, but hey, sometimes simplicity is the best approach.

favorite beauty hacks Secrets tips and these are things that I actually use on a day-to-day basis these are not just crazy things I found on the internet and the reason I say this is because sometimes when I watch these videos I see things that are so out there the other day I watched one of these and there was a girl using a butcher knife to draw on her eyeliner so we're not going to go in that direction these are things that are actually usable and I do use on an everyday basis this video is also really exciting because it's a collab with Michelle from Ready Set glamour if you guys don't

you as a subscriber there is a red subscribe button if you want to press that you'll be notified every time I post a new video so let's go ahead and jump into my all-time favorite Beauty hack hack number one has to do with foundation so I used to have at least 25 different foundations and that's because I felt I needed a foundation for every shade of skin tone that I was super pale regular pale normal skin tone somewhat tan very tan just got back from vacation tan So Not only was that expensive it was taking up so much space in my vanity area so what I do now is I use cover FX custom color drops in three different shades so now I do not need a million different foundations I can just custom blend whatever shade I need for any given day the next Haack has to do with concealer probably the bane of my existence is under eye creasing no matter what I tried nothing works so I went through a phase where I went online and I looked for every possible thing I could do to prevent creasing and there is one thing that I found that worked so what you want to do is apply your foundation and concealer as normal do not set it don't do anything you actually want your concealer cealer to crease so finish off the rest of your makeup and by that point your concealer should have already creased if you're anything like me it creases within a few minutes then what you want to do is take a beauty blender gently pull down on the skin to expose the creased area then take your pinky finger and gently massage out the crease and then at that point once the crease is gone you want to set it and I'm telling you the crease will be gone and it won't come back the next tip has to do with eyebrows and I have a little secret for you guys what you see here is an illusion Ryan actually calls me half brow because I have such little sad sparse eyebrows most of what you see is filled in but when you fill in your eyebrows they don't look natural it kind of just looks like you've colored something on your face until I figured out this hack I just started doing this recently and I'm obsessed so if you are filling in very sparse brows what I personally like using is the Anastasia dip brow because it does not budge it's sweat proof it's waterproof so I apply this first all over my brows to the shape that I want in the blonde color so whatever your natural color is and and then for phase two what I do is I take this ultra thin brush I've never in my life seen a brush so thin I actually found this at an art store then you want to take one shade darker than your natural brow color so I would use medium brown and then what you want to do is you just paint in your individual brow hairs and it will look so much more natural especially if someone is looking at you up close next is a hack for making your highlighter as intense as humanly possible you can see this highlighter from space basically so the key here is layering your highlighter so you want to start with a liquid highlighter I use this one from Becca the next step is to use your regular powder highlighter but you want to wet the brush first so you can use fix plus I just personally use an alcohol-free toner wet your brush and then put your highlighter on but no we're not done yet one last step is to spray your Fix Plus or your alcohol-free toner on your cheek and then at this point your your highlighter will be so intense I'm telling you people can find you in a dark room this next hack is for anyone else who deals with crazy flyaways because my hair is bleached it's very damaged and there's a lot of Flyway hairs on the top so what I use for this is a clear mascara this works extremely well I've been doing this for years so basically you just want to take your clear mascara and you want to wipe off the excess otherwise it's going to look clumpy it's not going to be cute so what I do is I just take that gently push down all the flya away hairs and once you do this it will last all day they won't pop back up I absolutely love this method okay this next tip is a cleavage hack I wasn't sure if I was going to include this cuz I don't normally talk about this kind of stuff on my channel but we're all adults here and 96% of you guys watching are women so hopefully you will find this useful I haven't seen anyone else mention this tip and to me it is the best tip the best part about it is there is no padding there's no underwire it is strapless and it is backless so basically what you need for this is a sticky br you want this exact shape sticky bra I have tried other shapes they don't work as well so what you want to do is instead of just applying it right on the front like they recommend you want to actually take each side and put it as far over on the side of your boobs as possible and then you pull it together and that's going to bring the girls in and give you really natural looking cleavage and like I said it's backless it's strapless so it works with pretty much anything you're wearing with spring and summer coming up we all know that we want to be wearing sunscreen but sunscreen is most effective when it's reapplied every 2 to 3 hours what I do and works extremely well is I use a powder sunscreen yes there is such thing as a pure sunscreen powder this is SPF 50 this is the brand that I like I just get this from Amazon by color science and what I really like about this is it serves two purposes the first is obviously to provide sun protection but the second is because it's a powder it will mattify your skin and get rid of any excess oil on your face this next hack is what I have found to be the best way to make fragrance last and that is using a body oil or beauty oil I have a beauty oil that I use for my face I also use it for my hair and my body but specifically I use this on my pulse points before applying the fragrance the oil will lock in and hold that fragrance on your skin for much longer than if you just wear it alone this next hack is what I do to get a perfectly straight nose Contour because if your nose Contour isn't perfectly straight and you have a bump on your nose like I do then the Contour can actually make your nose look a lot bigger which I found out the harder way what I use for this is just a little store card that's expired and I put that down the bridge of my nose and this just allows me to get that perfectly straight even symmetrical line on my nose Contour a self-tanning hack that I use especially around the tricky areas like the back of your hands elbows knees ankles what I use for this is a brush and moisturizer so what you want to do is dilute your Tanner I use the loving tan Ultra dark you dilute it with a little bit of moisturizer up apply that with a brush and it looks seamless and it doesn't have that problem of tan hands and things looking really blotchy and this last hack I'm going to share with you guys today is how I get my makeup brushes extremely clean there is a little tool I found for $5 on Amazon it's this guy which looks really funny but it has these little ridges on it and then dots on the end so as you're cleaning your makeup brushes it gives that friction that it really cleans them out and gets them cleaner than any other method I've tried all right guys so those are my hacks for today I really hope you enjoy them let me know which one is your favorite in the comments I also want to point out that some of my other beauty secrets are how I do my own hair nails and eyelash extensions I do have my DIY lash extensions video already done I will have it
