We buy new makeup and beauty items, we collect them but sometimes we just forget to buy a backup or forget that we are running out of a product. Or we travel and forget something from our to-pack list. So here are a few of the things we need everyday and their temporary replacements!

1. Face Mask replacement:
Mix Face Cream with water and apply a thick layer of this mixture on your face. Leave for 15 minutes and then wipe off with a paper towel. Dab gently to let it sink into the skin.
2. Hair Mask Replacement: #1
Mix your body cream/body lotion with water and then apply it like a hair mask!
3. Hair Mask Replacement: #2
Apply hair conditioner on hair after shampoo and leave it for 15 minutes (instead of <5min)
4. Highlighter Replacement
Use a bronze lipstick (that is close to your skin color) and apply it on the high parts of your face using your fingers. Dust a bit of a powder make it look natural and subdued.
5. Lipstick Replacement
Apply a thin layer of powdered eyeshadow/blush to the lips and top it with a lip balm. Or lip gloss!
I hope you got some ideas. These are my tried and tested makeup and beauty replacements. I am a very good manager and I am quite organized. I may over-pack but I never under-pack! But I am glad i forgot things to invent my own beauty product replacements! What are some of your makeup and beauty replacement?
