Hey Guys!
You would be surprised how many items you have around the house that can be used for your makeup or hair. My favorite example of this: corn starch. Go ask your mom if you have any! She will most likely say yes. But even if you don't, you can pick this up at any grocery store for super cheap! You will most likely find it in the baking aisle, by the sugar and flour.
I have recently discovered my favorite use for this common household item. That would be using it as a setting powder.
First put on a tinted mousturizer / foundation, or just use it by itself. When I do this, I like to use a big fluffy powder brush. Simply dip it in some corn starch, (I put a couple of teaspoons in a tubberware container and have kept it in my room) and tap off the excess. Make sure you don't have too much on your brush! Work it into your skin. Although this is easier to blend into lighter skin colors, you can use this on darker complexions. It really isn't that hard to blend in. This is really good for people who have combination oily skin, because it eliminates the grease. Using this as a powder leaves your skin super soft, creating a smooth surface to apply your bronzer and blush.
