Lacquer is a versatile material that can be used for various household items. Its advantages are its colorful and long-lasting coating, that makes it ideal for different purposes. One of its most significant uses is in the beauty industry.

Here are four amazing beauty hacks to look out for.

1. DIY Nail Polish

Lacquer is one material you can use to make your nail polish. Combining clear a bottle of clear nail polish with some pigment powder, one can quickly create their nail polish.

To get the desired color, mix the pigment powder with the clear nail polish in two teaspoons – adjust the amount of pigments used to achieve the shade you want. You can then apply your homemade nail polish to your nails, just like a regular nail polish would be applied.

2. Remove Nail Polish Stains on the Skin

Applying a coat of nail polish on your nails can sometimes lead to stains on your skin. You can easily remove these stains by dipping a brush, preferably an angled brush, in nail polish remover. Then, go over the areas with nail polish stains gently.

The nail polish stain will blend with the nail varnish, leaving your nails looking great. You may also use a cotton pad soaked in nail polish remover to clean up the stains.

3. DIY Hair Accessory

Lacquer can also be used to create hair accessories. This idea is ideal for those days when one doesn’t know what to do with their hair, or when you’re going for a casual look.

All you need to do is get some small flowers and coat them with lacquer. Once it’s dry, glue them to hairpins or hair clips using a hot glue gun. You now have a unique hair accessory that matches your nail polish.

4. Reshape your Eyeliner and Lip Liner

Have you ever had a liner pencil spew while sharpening it? The good news is that you can quickly fix this problem with lacquer. With a small brush, gently apply one or two coats of lacquer on the lipstick or eyeliner’s nib.

Wait until it’s dry, then sharpen the liner pencil to the desired size. The coating will prevent the liner from breaking or crumbling the next time it’s sharpened.

Conclusion

Lacquer is a versatile material that is readily available and can be used to create several beauty hacks. When used appropriately, it can enhance your appearance and give your style a unique look.

Remember always to wear gloves and use it in a well-ventilated place.
