KEEPING your makeup organised can sometimes be a bit of a struggle, especially when it comes to lip liners, eyeliners, and other small items. Scarlett Moffatt has shared a simple and affordable hack that she's been using for years, and it's perfect for anyone looking to tidy up their beauty stash. 3 3 In a recent video shared on her TikTok page, the Gogglebox star explained: 'So I thought everyone knew this tip. "If you have a lot of lip liners, eyeliners, or whatever – this is not an ad, I just think it's a really handy tip. "I've done this since uni, so gosh, 15 years ago, no longer than that… oh, I'm so old!' Her trick? Using a pencil holder to keep everything organised. Scarlett continued: 'It was getting to the point where I was like, right, I'm not being funny, but which lip liner is which? "So I have all my reds on one side and all my nudes on the other.' She encouraged her followers to give it a go, saying: 'Let us know if you decide to do it or if you know any good makeup storage tips. "Let's not gatekeep – this is a place of love, so let's share the love!'

Muireann O'Connell wears daring lipstick on air One beauty fan wrote: "I don't have a lot of lip liners now but I will have once I've bought that pencil case to put them in."

While a third commented: "This just saved me so much time, effort and puzzle piecing! "I'm clearing out my makeup drawer as we speak! Thank you." 3 Top 3 beauty products every woman should be using Hayley Walker, Beauty Expert at Justmylook shared the holy-grail products every woman needs to be using. A cleanser, SPF, and hair oil are must-haves within beauty routines. A cleanser is crucial for healthy skin as it removes dirt, oil, and other impurities for flawless skin. This skincare step not only cleanses the face and removes dirt, but also prevents breakouts and premature skin ageing, helping you maintain a healthy, youthful, and blemish-free complexion. The Aveeno Face Calm+ Restore Nourishing Oat Cleanser is a go-to of mine due to its gentle formula that soothes and restores the skin's appearance and texture. SPF is non-negotiable and should be in everyone's daily skincare routine. Even on cooler, cloudier days, our skin is exposed to the sun's UV rays which can be harmful to unprotected skin and even lead to damage. These damages include sunburn, pigmentation changes, and wrinkles which can impact the skin's texture and appearance. In some cases, prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause skin cancer. Applying SPF daily prevents these damages and protects the skin from harmful rays. I recommend the Beauty Of Joseon Rice & Prebiotic Sunscreen PA++++ SPF50+ for its lightweight, non-clumping texture that absorbs quickly for a natural finish and maximum protection. Hair oil has many benefits and should be regularly used. This treatment can strengthen and protect the hair from external stressors while improving its appearance and shine. Regularly applying hair oil can also reduce breakage and even encourage hair growth for longer, fuller locks. Hair oils also target the scalp, reducing dandruff and improving its health through exfoliation. I recommend using this deeply nourishing treatment a couple of times a week or more depending on the hair's moisture levels. The Hair Syrup Rapunzel Pre-Wash Oil Treatment is a nutrient-rich treatment that revitalises strands to promote a happy scalp and healthy-looking locks. Apply the syrup throughout damp hair before washing; massage from root to tip and allow the formula to penetrate strands before rinsing and styling.

Britain's most cluttered home hides disgusting secret as it hits market for £300,000 – would YOU put in an offer?
THE MOST cluttered home in Britain is now on the market for £300,000 after receiving a major makeover. Previous occupants had left it a mess both on the inside and out. 9 9 9 9 9 The two-storey semi-detached house located in Stoke, Plymouth is now on the market for double the price it was auctioned for in 2021. At this time, thick ivy could also be seen growing out of control on the home's exterior, wrapping around its side, along the roof and windows. Pictures previously revealed how thousands of beer bottles, cans, plastic bags, newspapers and other debris once filled its rooms. The floor was completely covered with carrier bags, milk cartons, old food packaging from the living room to kitchen, as well as upstairs. Some rooms were not even possible to access as debris piled on the floors and furniture. The house has now undergone a major transformation becoming a stunning family home, with three vibrant bedrooms and a modern kitchen. It follows its previous auctioning off in November 2021, where bidding started at £110,000. Despite the rubbish that had accumulated throughout the property, it received offers in £5,000 increments from buyers. A proxy bid finally brought the auction to £145,000. Following its makeover, the property is back on the market for just over double the price. Muireann O'Connell renovates home The current owner has turned the home into an ample living space with a large corner garden. There is also a large loft area above bedrooms two and three, which could be converted into a further two rooms with the necessary planning permissions. As the property description states: "Upon entering, you are greeted by a bright and airy open-plan lounge/diner, perfect for entertaining or relaxing with the family. "The newly fitted kitchen/breakfast room is a true highlight, boasting contemporary units and ample space for culinary creations." The property has also been given a new roof, plumbing, gas central heating and a complete re-wiring. On top of that, doors and architraves, skirting and some floors have been sanded back to their original wood. It is due to go on the market via Purplebricks after once being dubbed "Britain's most cluttered house".

"It can also make you more mindful about the purchases you are making." Categorise and contain "In any space, however big or small – from a utility room to your make-up box - organising items by category is the perfect way to keeping super organised," they said.

Storage, storage and more storage! "Storage is key, especially if space is an issue in the home or if the room is used for items like storing toys for children," they said. "Consider decorative storage baskets, side boards with plenty of storage or even a media wall or bookshelves with doors." 9 9 9
