Spoolies Are EVERYTHING
Whether you take them from your local Sephora, or save old mascara wands, a clean spoolie can do pretty much anything. You can use them to separate clumpy mascara, brush out harsh eyebrow lines for a softer look. Heck, you can even spray one with hairspray and use it for smoothing flyaways.

Blot Your Makeup with a Toilet Seat Cover
Sometimes, you're caught without pressed powder or blotting paper -- so, what's a girl to do? Well, a toilet seat cover will work in a pinch. It's actually pretty ideal for helping to keep your face shine-free, and the smooth texture ensures that it won't smudge your makeup.

Repack Your Broken Blush
There's no greater tragedy than knocking your blush compact off the edge of your bathroom counter, and watching it shatter into a million pieces -- but it doesn't have to be the end. Instead, use this genius beauty hack to repair it. Just save the broken fragments, and mix in a bit of rubbing alcohol. The blush should form something of a paste as you mix it, at which point you can press it into the compact. Then, once it's dry, it's (almost) as good as new!

Don't Towel Dry Hair
Look, it's tempting to give your hair a good scrub with a towel when you step out of the shower, but it can actually aggravate frizziness -- especially if you're letting it air dry. Instead, try gently patting it dry or scrunching it with an old T-shirt or microfiber towel, which will help keep your strands smoother.

Warm Up Your Eyeliner for an Easy Smoky Eye
Warming up your eyeliner can actually make it easier to apply. Turn that hard-tipped pencil into a gel-like liner that smudges out like a dream. Just heat up the tip with a blow dryer for two to three seconds.
