Tip Tuesday: Must Show Drivers License at CVS For Nail Polish Remover

Hi everyone! Here's a very interesting Tip Tuesday for you this week. Have your I.D. ready on a beauty product at CVS. According to my local news here in Michigan, CVS will now be requiring you to show your drivers license to purchase nail polish remover. Yes, you read that correctly...nail polish remover! You will need to be 18+ years old to be able to make the purchase.

 

Apparently, acetone is an ingredient used in the production of methamphetamine (meth) and CVS will be tracking these purchases in hopes to help reduce the making of this illegal substance. Will all pharmacy and grocery stores hop on the bandwagon of carding for polish remover? Only time will tell. I will link the article here if you would like to learn more.

 

I hope you enjoyed this week's Tip Tuesday. Not my typical type of tip (say that 10x fast, lol), but I wanted you all to be aware. My question to you is this: How do you feel about being carded for nail polish remover?

Tip Tuesday: How To Make Nail Polish Color More Opaque

We all do it. We buy nail polish because of the beautiful color we see in the bottle. Unfortunately, when you apply it to your nails it isn't always as vibrant and can even apply quite sheer. Here is an easy tip to help get that beautiful color you were expecting:

Apply a white nail polish before applying the color you want. You will find this brightens the color and  makes the polish appear more opaque.

Extra Tip: Make sure to always apply a base coat to protect your natural nail from discoloring. Also apply a top coat to help your manicure last longer.

Tip Tuesday: Make Your Lipstick Last All Day

Tired of reapplying your lipstick all day? Instead of using lip liner only to line your lips, use it to fill in your lips as well. Then put your lipstick on over it. This will help keep the color longer between reapplying. When the lipstick starts wearing off, the liner will give you coverage until you can reapply.

Tip Tuesday: Have a Family Fun Day on the Cheap

Let's face it; this economy is tough on everyone right now. Even so, we still want to provide our family with a day of fun without breaking the bank. How do we accomplish this? Check with your local library. Many libraries offer free passes to local attractions such as museums and other places of interest in the area. This could help you save big, especially on gas/travel expenses because it's in your own town. Save a little more by packing your own lunch, snacks and drinks and use a little bit of spending money at the gift shop for the kiddos instead of those expensive food carts.

Just be sure to plan your trip ahead of time and check with your library on how many free passes you are eligible for. Know that if they offer free admission of 4 per family and you have a family of 5, then you will have to pay for 1 ticket.

Extra Tip: If you have one or more extra people, use the free passes on the adults (check the rules and exclusions on your particular pass) and pay for the children's tickets if you can. Generally speaking, a child's ticket is usually cheaper than an adult ticket.

I hope this Tip Tuesday has been helpful.

Have a great day everyone!

Tip Tuesday: Just Do It!

Really quick and easy Tip Tuesday this week. This is advice that I have decided to take on myself as well. JUST DO IT! Be the kind of person that does and not the kind that only dreams of doing. We all get one life and no matter what people think about you it doesn't matter. It's all about how you feel about yourself. Don't let anyone hold you back from your dreams or your passions. Put yourself out there and start your own adventure.

 

 

Sure, we all make mistakes and it can be scary to go out and try something new; learn from them. Don't let anything stop you from growing and learning because in the end, you will be filled with regrets. Maybe you have always wanted to learn a new hobby...go sign up for classes. Maybe you have always wanted to dance...turn up the music! The point is that you are the maker of your own happiness so get out there and ENJOY!

 

 

I hope this Tip Tuesday will inspire you to try something new or something that you have always wanted to do. To be notified of more Tip Tuesdays, be sure to LIKE my page on Facebook at Mayday1101 (click here). Have a great day everyone! :)
