8. Blake Lively- Use Household Products As Natural Hair Masks

Using household products as part of a natural beauty regime has been pushed on us by beauty experts everywhere, but do any of these products actually work? Blake Lively confessed a family secret to achieve shiny, healthy hair to the website Brydie and it involves products you could find your refrigerator! “My mom taught me this really great beauty tip. She used to put oil or mayonnaise on the bottom half of her hair before she would shower. That way, when she would shampoo, the soap wouldn’t strip the bottom of the hair and dry it out, making it brittle,” Lively revealed.

2. Kylie Jenner- Don’t Forget To Protect Your Hands

Although being advised to wear sunscreen is a tip we’ve heard from various sources to stay looking young, one area we don’t always think about is the effects of the sun on our hands.
