Beauty hacks, you know them. Beauty hacks promise you will become prettier, healthier, more beautiful and more. Sometimes I believe this of course, because I have tested it out, but I don’t believe other beauty hacks.  I came across a couple of beauty hacks I don’t believe. Curious which one?

Nail polish

Put your nail polish in the fridge for 15 minutes before you apply it as it goes on smoother.  

Look, I don’t believe anything of this. Why would you apply nail polish easier when you have put it in the fridge? I don’t see the logic of this.

Banana peels

Rub a banana peel every day for a week on your teeth for about a minute. This results in teeth whitening. 

This sounds so nasty. After eating a banana I feel like my teeth are really rough and then I didn’t even rub with a banana peel on my teeth. You will probably only get a nasty feeling.

Tea bags

Put used tea bags on your eyes to remove dark circles under your eyes.  

This can eventually work, because of the herbs in the tea bag, but I doubt it. I don’t see myself laying with two tea bags on my eyes.

Lemon and baking soda

Rub a mixture of lemon and baking soda on your teeth. This way your teeth become whiter.  

People use baking soda literally for everything. Imagine, you put too much baking soda in the mixture. I don’t think that’s gonna work. You will probably get a really nasty taste in your mouth.

Ice cube

Rub an ice cube all over your face before you apply makeup. This helps close the pores and reduce redness for a glowing skin. It will also help your makeup last longer. 

My skin always gets red very fast when I wash my face with cold water. That a ice cube can reduce the redness of my skin.. I doubt that. The pores can eventually close, but my make-up won’t stay on longer.

Flat tummy water

Drink every evening a glass with ginger, cucumber, lemon and mint. This way you get a flat tummy.  

When you drink this, you get a flat tummy in a couple of days. Well, I believe you can lose a couple of grams. It is only impossible that you will get a flat tummy in a couple of days.

Sesame oil

Sesame olie makes your teeth whiter.  

Well, I don’t see this happening. It looks so nasty to rub this on my teeth. You taste this as well..

What shall I try and where don’t you believe in?
