1. Freeze your eyeliner

Does your eyeliner constantly crumble while putting it on? You Beauty recommends leaving it in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to applying your makeup. It should glide along your lash line seamlessly after that.

2. Shave with conditioner

If you're out of shaving cream, lather your legs with conditioner instead of soap. Conditioner will soften the hair on your legs making it easier to shave and it will leave your skin feeling extra silky.

3. Rinse out your hair with beer or vinegar

Rinsing your hair with beer helps restore moisture to your locks while using vinegar will up the ante in shine. Soak your hair in either liquid, not at the same time, for a few minutes, then rinse with cold water.

4. Turn up the heat

For curlier, flirtier lashes, the experts at You Beauty recommend heating your lash curler with a hair dryer for five to eight seconds before curling them.

5. Use ice cubes to keep fat, wrinkles and acne at bay

The experts at You Beauty recommend massaging an ice cube over your face until it melts. Do it every night before bed and keep fat cells, acne and wrinkles under control.

6. Make your manicure last forever

Before applying nail polish, wipe nails with an acetone-based cleanser. Essie Weingarten, founder of Essie Cosmetics, told the pros at Redbook that cleaning excess dirt, oil or moisturizer from your nails will ensure that the polish adheres properly.

7. Soothe your stomach and face

Apparently Pepto-Bismol isn't just a stomach soother, it can also be used as a facial mask. It contains bismuth subsalicylate, which is commonly found in facial creams. In an interview with Reader's Digest, Dr.Frances Jang, a dermatologist at , recommended spreading two teaspoons of Pepto-Bismol on your face, then letting it dry for 15 to 30 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water.

8. Apply sunscreen daily

Wear sunscreen every day, rain or shine. Even when it's cloudy. According to the American Academy of Dermatology, 80 per cent of the sun's ultraviolet rays pass through the clouds.

9. Don't forget your brows

It's easy to forget about your elbows, but they need just as much protection and care as other parts of your body. Cure dry elbows by massaging Bio-Oil onto them daily. You'll see and feel softer elbows in at least two days.

10. Lighten your hair with chamomile tea and lemon juice

In an interview with Reader's Digest, Popie Poulos, hairstylist and owner of The Salon, recommends rinsing your hair with a mixture of chamomile and fresh lemon juice instead of conditioner to permanently lighten your tresses.
