You see there are a number of beauty tips that have been known to women for centuries. They existed long before the advent of brand-name cosmetics, and they’ve survived to the present day because they work. The below list combines many of those time-tested secrets along with a smattering of affordable beauty tips whose origins lie in the present day. Let’s get started.

It’s cheap, readily available and travels easy.

  4. Speaking of hair – Here’s a contemporary beauty on a budget hack that’s surprisingly effective. If you’re in a hurry and want to get the odor of last nights’ dive bar out of your hair, run a fabric softener sheet over your mane and restore it to springtime freshness. Now about that dive bar…
  5. Visine: it gets the blemishes out – Visine is a great way to give your eyes a fresh, wide awake look but it can also be effective in taming unsightly blemishes. Simply put a drop on the tip of your finger and rub it into the blemish. Just make sure your finger is squeaky clean.
  6. Versatility thy name is baking soda – Baking soda is one of those affordable beauty tips that demand attention and respect. When you’re finished using it to make Christmas cookies, you can turn inward and use it as a foot powder to reduce odors, as a facial cleanser/exfoliant, as a teeth whitener, and as a clarifying shampoo. Who knew?

  8. That crucial first impression made easy – You never get a second chance to make a first impression, and if you put just a bit of your perfume on each wrist, you’ll be leading with your best. It’s a great way to leave a subtle, lingering impression.
  9. Water, water – Perhaps the most important affordable beauty secret of all is still the one that’s easiest to do. Drink water. There is simply no substitute for being properly hydrated. If you’re not your skin will suffer in ways that will be impossible to undo later on in life.
  10. Parting of the ways – Say you want to adopt a new look for your hair but you don’t have $100 to drop at the salon at the moment. Simply part it differently. It’s actually quite amazing how changing your part from one side to the other or from the center to the side will affect how you look. Try it.
