Woman praised for ‘genius' hack as she shares clever way she removes facial hair when she's forgotten her tweezers
A WOMAN has been praised for sharing a "genius" hack to remove unwanted facial hair when you haven't got any tweezers. Jenna explained that her mother had taught her the clever trick, which came in useful when she accidentally left her tweezers at home while on holiday.

"I did not pack tweezers and I have a nice black chin hair that apparently grew overnight," she began, pointing out the unwelcome visitor on her chin. She then uncapped the lip balm, before getting the hair in between the case of the product and the lid. As she did so carefully - to avoid giving herself a "blood blister" - Jenna managed to catch the hair, before closing the cap tight. Advertisement The hack meant she was then able to effectively pluck the hair right out in one go. In the caption for the video, Jenna said that the method hasn't "failed me yet". "Life hack for when you don't have tweezers..." she added. "Use your @Maybelline NY baby lips lipstick. Advertisement "Chin hairs don't stand a chance around here!" The comments section was almost immediately filled with people thanking Jenna for sharing the hack. I was so unrecognisable after excruciating facial treatment that my daughter banned me from doing the school run "I would never have the confidence to post this hack," one admitted. "I'm jealous that you are so hot and cool and did this effortlessly for the internet to see, but also I'm so grateful you changed my life !" Advertisement "The hack no one asked for but we all needed," another added. "Your mother is genius! Thank you for sharing this hack," a third praised. "You just changed so many lives," someone else insisted. "Wait! what!?!? Legit life hack!!! Thank you!" another wrote.

Not only this, but she also got candid on the two tips she recommends to defy wrinkles - and luckily for those on a budget, they are totally free. Showing off her 'go to everyday make-up routine' as a busy mum-of-four, Liana added concealer under her eyes, liquid bronzer to her forehead, nose and cheekbones and liquid blusher to her cheeks. Following this, the content creator, who has ditched foundation for good, applied gel to her eyebrows and finished off her natural look with a subtle brush of eyeshadow under her lash line, as well as a touch of Vaseline on her plump pout. But Liana's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @bananalianas, sent social media users wild and quickly amassed 152,000 views, 15,600 likes and 252 comments in just three days. Viewers couldn't believe their eyes at Liana's age and raced to the comments to express their thoughts. One person said: 'You look like you're around 19-25.' Another added: '39!!
