Frugal Beauty Tip #1

Hey Ladies, have you ever cracked up your eye shadow or your blush and found it so hard to use that it's just taking up space in your make-up bag?  Did you end up just throwing it away?

Well, don't throw away your money!  Make-up can be very expensive nowadays.  You can repurpose those cracked eye shadows and/or blushes.  Be sure that it's a color that would look good as a lipstick, i.e. browns, golds, pinks, and reds.  I'm going to show you how to create long wearing lipstick with those cracked items.

Here's what you need to get stared:

  • Petroleum jelly
  • Cotton swabs
  • Tootbrush
  • Cracked make-up item (s)
  • Small container to hold repurposed lipwear
Here are the steps to create your new lipstick:
  1. Use the end of the toothbrush to smash up the product until it's the consistency of a powder
  2. Take the cotton swab to scoop out some protroleum jelly (about the size of a medium grape)
  3. Mix the potroleum jelly and the product together until you don't see anymore lumps, you may have to add more potroleum jelly
  4. Enjoy
Because the product is powder based it will last longer than regular lipstick or gloss.

Enjoy being a girl!!!!
