New from Scotch, (you know the tape brand), is this super cool 3M Scotch Lint Sheets Pocket Pack, $2.79. What they do is keep lint, dust and all of those not so fab fuzzy pills away from your couture! These are must haves for the red carpet or for any big moment where you need to make a great first impression.

The best part about them is they are really small so that they easily fit right into your handbag, office desk drawer etc. The idea was to make them more chic than the traditional lint tape rolls you keep stashed in your closet at home. These neat sheets are for the gal on the go; the busy woman who loves dressing in fabulous blacks or if you're just a lint freak like Fab. Now she can live fearless and lint free! They come in two different thin travel case styles: black and modern floral. Each pack contains 40 strips that can be used multiple times. Enjoy!

5 Ways to Use Coffee Filters For Beauty

You heard me right. Sure they help provide you with a daily dose of caffeine, but did you know that coffee filters can give you more than just a java jolt? I never thought of these everyday household items as more than just a basic way to assist in the preparation of drip coffee, so I was happy to discover other uses, particularly because they involve beauty. Here are a few:

Blot it out: Oil slicks be damned. Simply use a filter to blot excess shininess on the face.
Wax on: Cut into small rectangles, filters make a great substitute for waxing strips.
Nick of time: Got a bleeding nick from shaving? A little dab of the coffee filter will do ya.
Fogged up: Clean up a vanity or bathroom mirror with lint-free results.
Freshen up: Create a makeshift deodorizer by placing baking soda in a filter. Secure with a rubber band or twist tie. Simply place anywhere odor control is needed, like a drawer, trash bin, or pile of bathroom towels.
