If you have a little bit of perfume at the end of the bottle, make the most out of it by adding it to unscented body lotion — any standard brand will work — and ensure nothing goes to waste.

3. Fix your broken lipsticks with FIRE

There’s nothing more heartbreaking than when your lipstick breaks, but worry not — there is a solution.

Simply use a match or lighter to melt the part of the lipstick still attached.

Then do the same again for the lipstick that has broken away.

And hey, presto!

Is your mascara dry or clumpy? It’s probably because you’re pumping the wand (eh-oh!) in and out of the tube too much.

But you don’t need to fork out cash for a new one. Instead, just hold the wand under warm water and stir it around the bottle to soften mascara.

5. Restore your broken eyeshadow to its former glory with a facial wipe

Here’s how.

6. Don’t be afraid to slice open your favourite tubes of make-up/face wash

Reach the dregs of your foundation/face wash/moisturiser by cutting the tube open with the scissors. Your Mam will be proud of you.

7. Clumpy/stringy nail varnish got you down? All is not lost

Simply add nail polish remover (not too much) to the bottle to thin it out.

Ta-da!
