Tampon
Beauty blogger Ashley Blue DeFrancesco decided that the faithful tampon wasn’t quite useful enough and trialled it as a makeup applicator. Hmmm…
Silicone bra
No doubt taking inspiration from the silicone makeup sponge that recently hit the market, beauty bloggers are now using actual silicone bras to get the job done!
Hard boiled egg
Yes, you read that right – an actual hard boiled egg! No longer just an easy, on-the-go snack, YouTubers are now using eggs to apply their makeup. All we can say is… wow.
Condom
While condoms definitely have their place in the world (safety first!), we’re not sure they fit into the foundation applicator category. Laila Tahri and Beauty Vixxen are just two of the many YouTubers that have given them a red hot go.
Tomato
Using a tomato to apply foundation is probably not what nutritionists mean when they tell us to incorporate more vegetables into our lives…
Sock
You know all those ugly socks you get every Christmas? Apparently there’s now an easy way to get use out of them – vlogger Mayra Isabel reckons they make a decent complexion perfector. It’s a daring idea but we’ll pass, thanks!
