As satisfying as it is to get ourselves beauty products and treatments, the #treatyoself moments can burn the bank pretty quickly. So if you’re in the need for some TLC and are a Barbie on a budget like me, then you can replicate your spa day right in your own home! These DIY beauty hacks will leave you feeling refreshed after a long day, and are super convenient and affordable!

1. Erase blackheads with baking soda & orange juice.

This mask is a quick fix if you have clogged pores that need to be cleared fast. Mix one tablespoon of orange juice with one table spoon of baking soda, and apply the paste to your skin. Leave it on for twenty minutes, and then scrub it into the skin if you want some exfoliation. Rinse, and your pores are squeaky clean!

2. Use baby powder as dry shampoo.

3. Mix sugar + coconut oil for a quick lip scrub.

4. Use a credit card to get the perfect cat eye.

5. Use peppermint oil to plump your lips.

6. Fix dry mascara with your bra.

Sounds crazy, I know. Just stuff your mascara tube into your bra while doing your face makeup, and your natural body heat will warm up the tube just enough so that it loosens up the formula and prevents flaking/clumps.

7. Stick spoons in the fridge to depuff your eyes.

Leave them in for five minutes and apply under your eyes!

8. Make your lipstick last all day with translucent powder.

9. Use oil to remove stubborn waterproof makeup.

10. Spray bobby pins with hairspray for all-day hold.

11. Use mascara/eyeshadow to spruce up your hairline.

12. Use a spoolie to scrape off dry mascara.

I talked about this in my 5 Things You Can Do With a Spoolie article, but this is an awesome hack that will save you the smudgy mess of cleaning wonky mascara.

13. Use dental floss to push out blackheads.
