5 Makeup Hacks To Make Your Morning Better

By Leah Novakoski @eligiblezine · On March 18, 2018

Don’t you wish you had your own makeup artist to do your makeup every morning for you? Someone who is educated on makeup trends and has tons of beauty tricks up their sleeve. You could just sit and relax while drinking your morning coffee while they did all the work without having to worry about covering your dark eye circles, making sure your eyeliner is a sleek line or making sure your lips are in a perfect pout. Even though you can’t have your own personal makeup stylist awaiting your every morning here are some quick beauty hacks that even the best of artists use.

  1. Turn pencil eyeliner to gel.
    We all know the pain of a pencil eyeliner; it hurts our lids while makes a very jagged and faint line. With the use of a lighter or matches, you can turn your pencil liner into an easy to use gel eyeliner that glides easily over your lid creating a much darker and smoother line. Hold the flame over the tip for about 2 seconds and then let it cool for 15 seconds, seeing the consistency change before your eyes will blow your mind.
  2. Conceal your bags properly.
    It is common to pat on some concealer right over the dark spot and get on with your day but what many people do not know is that there is a proper way to do so. Draw a triangle underneath your eye lashline to the bottom of your cheek. This will cover the darkness completely as well as brightening up your face and looking lifted altogether.
  3. Reduce your puffy eyes in the morning.
    Everyone has been ranting about those jade rollers being a miracle or taking 15 minutes in the morning to lay down with a cold cloth over your eyes. Who really has time to take out of their morning routine to concentrate solely on your eye puffiness. An easy trick that takes no effort at all is sleeping on two pillows. This stops blood from running on into your face causing the morning puffy problem to vanish.
  4. Easy eyelash glue application.
    All you need for this hack is a bobby pin. Girls waste a lot of glue and time by trying to put the glue directly onto the false lashes and sometimes ruins the lash completely. Make it easy by spreading apart the bobby pin putting some glue on the end and evenly dispersing it across the lash. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
  5. Make your glossy lipstick mattè.
    Apply your desired lip gloss or lipstick onto your lips. Then place a tissue paper over your lips and firmly press your lips together. After removing the tissue paper with your lip brush, use some translucent powder light layer it over your lips. This converts your glossy lipstick into a mattè consistency.
