Based on a picture she posted, Bella Hadid has her makeup applied with her head upside down. The supermodel revealed that the makeup application technique gives the most natural finish to your makeup.

She isn’t the only star who swears by the method either. Reports claim that Katy Perry and Julia Roberts also request to have their makeup done upside-down

3. Beyoncé’s Glue Stick Brows

Queen Bey is known for never having a hair out of place. However, in an interview with E! News, Beyoncé’s makeup artist, Sir John, revealed that her perfect eyebrows are actually a result of applying Elmer’s Glue Stick instead of brow gels. He explained that he preferred it because it withstands any conditions while still remaining gentle on pores and skin.

“My [favorite] beauty hack is to use Elmer’s Glue Stick as the ultimate brow gel in the heat. It doesn’t clog your pores, and it washes off easily.”

4. Kim Kardashian’s Plump Undereyes

Kim Kardashian is the queen of contour and loves to show off her smooth under eyes with tons of highlight. But the reality star reveals her bright under eyes is not just a result of her contour kit but rather a very simple hack.

Kim’s makeup artist, Mario Dedivanovic revealed that he uses $6 hemorrhoid cream Preparation H to tighten her undereye and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. The cream restricts the blood vessels, reduces redness and has anti-inflammatory ingredients to reduce puffiness.

5. Margot Robbie’s Creamy Lip Balm

The gorgeous actress swears by an odd choice of lip moisturizer to keep her iconic pout smooth and plump. Margot insists that store-bought lip balms contain ingredients that dry out your lips instead of moisturizing them and instead she uses a nipple cream instead. In an interview with Elle U.K. she said:

“My lip balm, I use Bepanthen, which is actually a nipple cream for breastfeeding mothers or diaper rash cream for babies. I have a conspiracy theory that lip balms actually have additives in them to dry your lips out so you keep buying them. But because Bepanthen is just a cream for dry skin, it works. It’s what I’ve used my whole life.”
