2. Use Beetroot As A Lip Stain
If you’re not keen on using commercially available lipsticks and are looking for a natural alternative, then do try beetroot. Simply rub a slice of beetroot onto your lips for a nice flush of colour. You can also use it as blush; just be sure to blend it in really well.
3. Cover Up Bald Spots With Eye Shadow
If your hair is thinning or if you can see spots or gaps in your scalp where there is no hair, try covering it up with a dark eye shadow. Dab the eye shadow onto the required area with the use of an old makeup brush. It will cover up the spot while making your hair look naturally thicker and fuller.
