Boost Your Eyelash Curler's Performance

Rather than spending money on a heated eyelash curler, simply heat your manual eyelash curler with your hair dryer. Then use as you ordinarily do. The heat will curl your lashes more effectively than by gently pressing at it. It works more like a curling iron.

Transform Your Lipstick into Lip Gloss

Transform your lipstick into a lip gloss by melting your lipstick and a little Vaseline into a tiny jar. Mix it together and enjoy.

Prevent Your Lipstick From Bleeding

Prevent your lipstick from bleeding by keeping them well-moisturized. Lipstick bleeds when your lips are dry. Slather on a coat of Vaseline before going to bed. At night is when your body rejuvenates itself. Your body will absorb the moisture best during this time. Apply a thick coat of Vaseline for five minutes before applying your lipstick. Gently remove the Vaseline beforehand. Alternatively if you shower in the morning, slather on a thick coat of Vaseline before you get in. The humidity from the water and heat will moisturize your lips a lot more effectively. Then, line your entire lips with a translucent lip liner. I like Paula's Choice. This acts as a lip fixative.

Christmas Tree Out of the Option

If, for whatever reason, a Christmas tree is out of the question, either because you can't afford one or you don't have the space for it, you can still create a Holiday atmosphere. You can get a wreath and/or hang Christmas lights around the wall. But if you can't afford one, try buying a box of Christmas ornaments from the 99 cents store and place them around your home. You can also buy stocking stuffers and a gingerbread house.

A week's worth of cut up fruit

The longer fruit has been cut up, the less nutritious it is. But if you don't have any fruits, that's even less nutritious. Make the most out of what you have, what you can do, or what you're willing to do. Cut up a week's worth of selected fruit and have it daily. It's already cleaned, cut, and ready to eat. You won't have to prepare another batch for a week.

A Filipino-style Breakfast

Filipinos have a bowl of rice with salted duck eggs and sliced tomatoes. It is an acquired taste. But if you can enjoy it, it's an inexpensive and filling treat. The duck eggs have a long shelf life, too.
