Hey ladies, did you know toothbrushes are not meant for the teeth or stray edges alone? The are used for plenty more...

Toothbrushes are not meant for brushing the teeth alone, they also come in handy as cheap beauty tools and the catch is you can get them with bristles ranging from hard to soft, whether new or slightly used the toothbrush makes a great beauty tool. They can be used in a lot of ways namely:

1. It can be used TO DE CLUMP MASCARA.

When you notice/have mascara clumps on those fabulous lashes, a dry toothbrush will separate the lashes, leaving them looking lush and full.

2. USE IT TO EXFOLIATE YOUR LIPS

You do know that for #baby soft, kissable lips you should exfoliate regularly – right? A toothbrush will do the job. Use a soft bristle brush dipped in petroleum jelly and rub gently in a circular motion. Don’t push and pull – your lips are sensitive. You want the perfect pout, not something that resembles fish scales.

3. As a BRUSH FOR BRAIDS

A toothbrush comes perfectly handy when you braid, for times when you need to brush out the edges or tame unruly hair they come handy, make sure they are clean and gently brush the edges with them. Toothbrush also doubles as a hairbrush. If you have flyaways, spray some hairspray onto a toothbrush and tame away.

4. USE IT TO GROOM YOUR EYEBROWS

If you are missing a spoolie brush in your makeup kit, grab a new toothbrush. You can use the toothbrush to groom your brows. A gentle brush in one direction will brush away any stray hairs. And then, to keep them perfectly, neatly groomed, spray some hairspray on the brush and gently stroke over your brows. (Don’t forget to wash the toothbrush afterwards ready for next #time.)

5. They can BE USED TO CLEAN BEAUTY TOOLS

You can use it to clean out all those hard to reach places in your brushes, combs, and hairdryer. Use it dry to get rid of lint and use it wet to get rid of dirt and product build up. The list is endless, remember to always keep them clean
