When applying mascara, wiggle the brush. Many people do not give a second thought to putting on their mascara.

Sometimes, when coloring your hair, you may find that the color you chose simply isn’t strong or intense enough for your liking.

Let it sit for only 5-10 minutes before rinsing and you will find the color intensified.
