"FIVE BEAUTY EMERGENCY SUBSTITUTES"

***FIVE BEAUTY EMERGENCY SUBSTITUTES***

Next time, instead of going to the store for a replacement, reach for your cupboard. Here are five substitutes that can work just as well . . .

#1.) CONDITIONER

If you need something to help comb out the tangles, look in the kitchen. Get an AVOCADO with a half-cup of MAYONNAISE or whole milk, and leave it in for fifteen minutes. It's better than anything you can buy at the drug store.

#2.) CONCEALER

The thick residue around the top of a FOUNDATION bottle is a great substitute when you're in a pinch. Pat it on and blend it carefully. Use your ring finger to avoid gobbing on too much.

#3.) HAIR SPRAY

If you're frizzed out and desperate, use a little bit of hair gel instead. Wet your hands then lightly coat them with gel. Flatten out problem areas and style your hair just like you would normally. Then let it air-dry to lock it in place.

#4.) SHAVING GEL

You can't go out without a smooth pair of legs, right? So, if you're out of shaving gel, try HAIR CONDITIONER. Most types contain silicone, which creates a smooth surface that will reduce nicks and cuts.

#5.) MASCARA

Use your fingertip and dab a small amount of Vaseline on your eyelashes. The petroleum will define them and make them glisten when they catch the light.
