Fashion and Beauty uses for Dawn

 

Who would have thought there would be so many amazing uses for Dawn dishsoap?

 Here is a short list of things this stuff is supposed to do:

Remove red wine from a carpet. Mix one part Dawn dishwashing liquid with two parts hydrogen peroxide (available at any drug store), pour it directly on the stain.

Takes stains our of clothes. Use the same mixture as above for the carpet, and add it to hot water. Dunk whatever clothes you have right in there for a few minutes.

Give yourself a manicure. Stick some Dawn in a dish (don't dilute it) and let your nails soak. It softens your cuticles and removes any oils from your nails so polish will stick easier.

Hair degreaser. Supposedly, this can work just like a deep cleansing shampoo.

Face wash. Great for oily skin, and mild enough to use every day. 

Also on the list of things this bottle can do:
Kills ticks and fleas on pets. Can be mixed with a bit of water in ziplock bags for freezable ice packs. Use as a weed killer (mixed with salt and vinegar). 

Try doing a search on Pinterest for Dawn Soap and see what you come up with. 

Interesting!

What have you used dishsoap for that is out of the norm?

Avengers Makeup Eyeshadow

I think this falls under being able to be a nerd AND look stunning, at the same time.
Jangsara is a makeup blog I came across for the first time. Thank you pinterest! She has tons of really unique looks, as well as some more neutral pieces for those who just need some eyeshadow tips. 

This serious just blows my mind though. I've loved all the Avengers movies. I will admit, I never read the comics. I was a book girl, and had it in my head growing up that something with so many photos just couldn't be as good to read as something with no images.Since the movies started coming out, I've seen them all, and read up on many of the characters. These looks would be perfect to wear out to the next flick, for a Halloween party, or just to support your favorite character.
She even gives links to each character step by step and tells you what products were used. Sweet!

While hunting, some other super hero pieces came up as well.

Water Marble Nail Art Tutorial

Have you seen the nail art done by using a cup of water? 

This is actually quite a bit easier than I thought it would be!
I found a youtube channel that explains it fairly well.

 I've seen photos, but this is the first video I've come across, and it makes sense now.
Just make sure you tape off your fingers so clean up is easier. ;-)
