We've all seen the numerous beauty hacks on Pinterest and wondered if any of them actually work. Well, today's your lucky day. I decided to test out six beauty hacks and share my results with you. Some of these hacks I loved and will definitely continue to use, while others I wasn't really a fan of. Check out the truth behind these Pinterest beauty hacks below.
Coconut Oil Makeup Remover
Approved!
I was pleasantly surprised when this hack worked so well. My makeup comes off so easily with this remover it's amazing. I noticed it worked especially well with getting my mascara off. It really leaves nothing behind. The one fault I have with this hack is I noticed that my skin started to break out. I tend to have dry skin so if you are someone who has more oily skin I would not recommend this hack.
Mascara Clump Prevention
Fail!
This hack did nothing for me. I tried it for a few days, but I noticed no difference in how my mascara went on. Skip this one, it's not worth your time.
Clean Manicure
Maybe?
I'm still not sure how I feel about this hack. Yes, it does work well to keep nail polish off your skin, but it takes a bit for the glue to dry, and if you don't put enough around your nails it will still get on your skin. If you have the time and are a perfectionist I'd say go for it, otherwise I'm not convinced it's worth the effort.
Smooth Nail Polish Application
Fail!
Again, this hack did nothing for me. I noticed zero difference in how my nail polish went on. I would say don't waste your time, and just go right ahead and paint your nails.
Drying Makeup Brushes
Approved!
I love this trick. I used to clean my brushes and keep them on a towel next to my sink. They took up space and took too long to dry. By hanging my brushes, I've found that they dry faster, and hold their shape a lot nicer. I highly recommend this hack.
Hot Glue Clipboard Brush Cleaner
Approved!
This is another favorite of mine. I had an extra clipboard laying around my house so this cost me no money to make. If you don't have a clipboard at home, no worries. The dollar store is a great place to get one cheap. This is also super simple to make. All you have to do is make different patterns along your clipboard with a hot glue gun and voila, you've got yourself the perfect brush cleaner. I've found that this trick really gets my brushes clean, as well as saves me time. I absolutely suggest that you check this out!
