wHaTs Up My HeNs?!

Look, I’m a momma first. You may be a broke college student or a struggling artist. I don't know your situation but I do know we all wanna look like we about that life. Here is a look into some skills I have acquired trying to look like a million bucks on a dime.

YOUTUBE:

We live in the digital era y'all. You can literally learn how to do ANYTHING! You wanna know how to do acrylic nails from home, YouTube. You wanna learn to apply a lace front, YouTube. You want to make your own organic makeup, YouTube. You want to learn how to hot-wire a car, YouTube.

 

UPCYCLE / REPURPOSE:

You don’t even need to know how to sew for some of these. So go grab one of your dad’s old flannels or an old sweater that has been stretched out and put your skills to good use. You can do more than you think with what you’ve already got in your closet.

FALSE LASHES:

You can go get eyelash extensions but those will for sure cost you a pretty penny to keep up with. You want to look like your lashes were blessed by gods? You go pick up a pair of lashes and learn to apply them correctly. You don’t have to pay someone else. You got this. If you need help call a friend or check out our tips here: https://chickenrowmarket.com/blogs/what-the-flock-blog/the-dos-dont-of-false-eyelashes?_pos=5&_sid=b5b36f4c7&_ss=r

TAKE CARE OF WHAT YOU HAVE

Everything has a longer shelf life if you care for it as intended. I am the worst at shrinking clothing but if it really matters to me I will put it aside and follow the care instructions. Being negligent can cost you in the long run. 
DIY SKIN CARE
You can find some great DIY recipes online for skincare you can make from home. In order to save money you will need to compare prices of ingredients. And what ever you do please make sure you are getting a recipe from a credible source and not some "5 min DIY hack" page that doesn't actually work or will harm your skin. You have to be smart and not believe every video on Instagram that says it works. Check them out on snopes.com!

I hope I was able to help you be more boujee on a budget with these few tips. Comment below if you have any other cost effective beauty hacks! As always, thanks for reading!
