1. Applying Blush and Contour Under Foundation

This is one of the best makeup hacks we’ve tried in months, and it’s SO simple. All you have to do is apply your cream contour and blusher underneath your foundation. By defining your facial features before you apply foundation, it’ll create a more natural, seamless finish. Another reason to try this hack? It’ll help avoid any blending mishaps, as the foundation helps buff and blend away harsh lines.
2. Slugging

Slugging, AKA applying Vaseline as a moisturizer, is a skincare hack that’s been gaining traction for years, first on reddit, and now on Tik Tok. While it may seem a little unorthodox and hella slippery, according to dermatologist Dr. Lortscher, “The Unitd States FDA approves of the use of petrolatum as an over-the-counter skin protectant that can seal in moisture to help dry skin. It’s also useful in healing superficial scrapes and wounds as well as irritated skin.”
Dr. Lortscher recommends applying a thin layer of Vaseline to your skin fresh out of the shower – while your skin is still damp – to help seal in all that moisture. Alternatively, you can opt to use it as the final step in your nighttime skincare regimen. To find out more about this budget-friendly skincare hack, check out our guide to slugging.
