To rejuvenate old, thickened nail polish, add a few drops of nail polish thinner to squeeze a few more applications out of your favorite brands.

For dried-out mascara, add a couple of eye drops in the tube, then swirl the wand around and you'll be back in action with just a few blinks!

Lift, let it dry...and it's as good as new!
