Beauty Tip: Quick Rescue For Common Beauty Blunders

Here are quick fixes to solve some major beauty problems in no time.

Messed up while cutting your own bangs?

You've got that stylish haircut after a long time, and in months, those side bangs have grown and how. So, you decide to chop them off yourself without denting your wallet at the salon, but sadly you botch the deed. Fret not! All you've got to do is apply an oil-based styling cream on your bangs, so the hair looks weighed down and thus, longer. Then blow dry that bit right down your forehead using a soft bristled hair brush. Another way to deal with the mess; side brush those bangs and clip it up with the help of a bobby pin.

Tweezed brows till they got super thin?

Yes, this can happen like many a times, and, we hate it, true. All you've got to do is use a soft textured eyebrow pencil of a colour similar to that of your eyebrow. Then fill in your brows, make sure you colour those gaps where there is no hair. Avoid the stenciled look, for which ensure using short, quick strokes, blending it with later with a brow brush. Continue this daily, till your hair grows back (which shouldn't be more than a week or two).

Facial made those blemishes more visible?

Soak a cotton pad in alcohol (one which has an antiseptic property) and clean the blemishes. (This might sting quite a bit). Also, if the spot is bleeding, wrap ice in a towel and apply it to the area. Avoid squeezing the blemish or else you're only going to damage that area by pushing the bacteria and pus deeper into the skin and rupturing the pore to allow a much-regretted scar on your skin. Sensitive skinned people are recommended to consult a doctor before trying any of these techniques.

Hair colour gone too dark or too light?

Correcting something like a colour goof-up is extremely tricky, so make sure you head to a salon even if it's a home-done error, unless you want to land yourself into more mess. Then again, if you want to correct it at home (urgent situations call for these); when your hair has ended up too light, apply a darker semi-permanent colour about half to one level deeper than the current colour. Choose a neutral or warm colour lest, you don't want to look having bleached tresses. When that hair has turned out to be too dark with colour, lighten it up using highlights.
