Q-Tips + Micellar Water = Cat Eye Perfection
If you're struggling with your eyeliner application (and come on, who among us isn't?), a simple Q-Tip dipped in your favorite micellar water might just be your new favorite beauty hack. It magically erases your mistake without tugging or leaving behind a residue the way a standard makeup remover might.

Smoke Out Bad Winged Liner
How about those times when you don't feel like erasing your mismatched wings? Well, consider blurring out the line with a little bit of dark eyeshadow. Keep the line on the thinner side if you want a more natural look, or go bold if you want something smokier.

'Fix' Your Chipped Nails With Glitter
Is there anything more annoying than finding a chip the day after you got a manicure? File under biggest beauty bummer ever. If you've got a couple small chips, but don't feel like re-doing the whole thing, consider glitter nail polish. A quick top coat will add a touch of glam, while helping to obscure the flaws.

Remove Glitter Nail Polish, Fast
As glamorous (and useful) as glitter nail polish is, it's very difficult to remove. To make the process quicker and easier, apply a nail polish remover-soaked cotton ball to each fingernail, holding it in place by wrapping it with foil. Let it sit for 10 minutes, remove the foil, et voila -- glitter-free nails.

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.
