place the hook case on the paper side of the magnet

then peel off the paper backing from the magnet and in it goes

I used the duct tape to decorate the outside to fit my taste

Beat the shine!

With the warm weather approaching, here are some easy affordable ways to help beat the shine!

1) lemon juice- apply to a cotton pad then use this as a weekly treatment all over the face

2) milk of magnesia- wet cosmetic sponge then dip it right into the milk of magnesia then apply to the face as the ultimate shine control primer

3) baby powder- apply this using a big fluffy powder brush concentrating on your oiliest areas before makeup 

4) cornstarch- mix a tiny amount with your foundation for an amazingly matte finish that lasts potentially all day, you may need to use a bit more foundation than usual

Bonus- invisible solid deodorants work great as quick shine spot treatment balm
