Coffee filters. They look unassuming enough. You use them to help give you your daily caffeine fix. Personally, I cannot physically handle the effects of caffeine, or risk turning into this (especially at 0:57). However, I always have a stack of coffee filters at the ready and packed in my kit. Why? I use them to do makeup of course (duh)! Coffee filters are great for wiping down goopy mascara wands, blotting lipstick, and absorbing shine and perspiration on the t-zone. They’re superior to tissues or toilet paper because they don’t leave lint behind. Lint on your mascara wand, getting in your eye, clumping up your lush lashes isn’t a good look, nor is it safe. I always wipe my mascara wand down, this is especially important if it’s a new tube. Make the switch to coffee filters, and let me know how you like it.
