Do you ever look at people and wonder how they got that perfect smokey eye or winged eyeliner without professional help? Well, some people are naturally amazing at makeup and others use their own beauty hacks to help complete their look. I've employed some of our top beauty babes here at UNiDAYS HQ to share their own top secret beauty hacks.

1. Avoid lippy on your teeth
[blockquote quote="There's nothing more awkward than staining your teeth with over-applied lipstick. An easy trick I use when applying my Mysterious shade lipstick from the Sephora Collection to remove excess lippy, is to put your finger in your mouth after application, close your lips around your finger and pull it back out." name="Maddy"]

2. Face Masks as on-the-spot treatments
[blockquote quote="If I've got a spot that I really want to go down I use a detox or a charcoal mask as an on-the-spot treatment and sleep it in overnight. You look a bit like a monster but it's totally worth it in the morning once that bad boy has gone down. This is actually the mask I use too!" name="Allie"]
3. Longer lasting lippy!
[blockquote quote="Fed up of your lipstick coming off as soon as you walk out the door? We feel you! To stop this, apply your fave lip colour as normal, pop a tissue on top and dust with some finishing powder. Simple!" name="Hollie"]
4. Soak that sponge!
[blockquote quote="Sponges like the Beauty Blender work so much better if you get them wet and then squeeze all of the water out before blending your makeup in. If you don't do this your sponge will just soak up all of your product, wasting it!" name="Becki"]

5. Get longer lashes without extensions
[blockquote quote="Get even more volume from your mascara by dabbing on baby powder with a cotton swab between mascara application. This will help to give your lashes a longer look without having to pay for extensions. Easy!" name="Lydia"]
