Lumify eye drops - I use it directly on my facial redness, not all over.  Apply it with a liner brush on clean dry skin (like painting it on top of the red spots). May take a second application in areas on my face to get the red out of those places. The effects last most of the day. The Lumify won't completely remove the red but it will reduce it enough to where I can use a concealer effectively to cover it if I need to.

Eye shadow as brow powder and to fill in part in my hair

Moistuizer mixed with foundation to make it lighter and easier to blend 

A bit of body lotion to tame fly away hairs

Bronzer on my bare legs

Toothpaste on SS jewelry...do you remember the (ID bracelets?) we used to wear that belonged to our boyfriends?  This was in the 70s.  I used toothpaste to clean those

Lipgloss on your eyelids???  How did that feel?

Was the body lotion for taming frizzys?

I learned the toothpaste as spackle trick decades ago from my dad!  I've got some holes right now that need spackled from replacing wall hangings but DH will be using spackle, not toothpaste

The body lotion on my hair was definitely for taming frizz.  It works.

As for lipgloss on eyelids, I definitely just use very  little.  On a hot summer day, not wearing eyeshadow, it's like amped up vaseline, a little shiny nude, peach or cocoa color gloss that has some shimmer or sparkle.

I'm going to have to march right to my bathroom and smear lipgloss on my eyelids.  I can't see being able to stand the feeling.  I've never heard about putting Vaseline  on eyelids either.

After reading these posts, I can tell I need to broaden my horizons a bit with my makeup.  I don't use anything for other purposes other than what its inteded to be used for.

I've used bronzer as eye shadow. 

Dry  shampoo instead of hair mousse.

@monicakm  Just dab a little on, not a full on smear like you'd do on you lips  Lol!  Sometimes I've dabbed it on cheekbones too, but not cheeks and eyes at the same time.  How do you like it?  Let us know. 

I like shimmer or sparkly, not plain gloss.
