PROBLEM: Dry/Irritated/Red/Sunburned Skin

SOLUTION: Use sugar cubes or a tooth brush to exfoliate dry lips and remove the buildup of dead skin.

PROBLEM: Dry, Parched Hair
SOLUTION: A few drops of olive oil helps repair split ends, heals dandruff, and makes your hair shiny, silky, and lustrous. Apple Cider Vinegar diluted with water helps remove product build-up.

PROBLEM: Body Odor & Static in Your Hair
SOLUTION: Fabric Dryer Sheets rubbed under your arms if you’re in a pinch to smell fresh or run the sheet over your hair to stop the fly-aways that you get when there is static in the air.

PROBLEM: Out of Lip Gloss
SOLUTION: Pink Sharpie Highlighter (for extreme emergencies only) Grab a pink sharpie marker off your desk and shade in your lip line. I know it sounds ridiculous but it works and comes right off.

PROBLEM: Out of Hair Gel
SOLUTION: A Dab of Face or Body Lotion can work in a pinch.
