There are so many people on the internet these days providing helpful beauty advice. From saving money when you use simple tools for makeup application instead of expensive Beauty Blenders, to achieving results in half the time.

These beauty addicts have done the work for us and we should be grateful for it. So I've put a list together with some unusual beauty hacks we can all check out.
