2. Curtain rod, hook, and hanger add-ons

Hang those shared towels in your bathroom using those hooks instead of rods. This trick saves lots of space and adds posh to your bathroom walls. You may also add another curtain rod inside your shower area (opposite to your shower curtain rod) to hang other fancy baskets and organizers to keep your essentials in place. Chic hangers can also do the job.

3. Magnet strips magic

We seldom misplace little metal essentials like bobby pins, tweezers, pincers, ear picks, nail cutters and files, cuticle pushers, and other multi-purpose pins. And in order to keep them posh and always accessible, try to put some magnetic sheets or strips on the cabinet door to safely store these handy tools.

4. Towel tricks

Just like when you pack your travel suitcases, you save a lot of space when you roll all your things than actually folding them. Well, the same tricks do magic for your towels.

5. Trimming fingernails and toenails

Most of us cut our nails anytime we want to. But we might be doing it totally wrong. The best time to trim our nails is right after taking a bath where nails are softer and they don't just crack. Push back cuticles, gently brush them, and of course, moisturize!

6. Shower hacks

You're probably into this ritual: shampooing before conditioning your hair. Wrong! Reverse hair washing promises you with more volume and impresses you with better results. Using conditoner before your fave shampoo is actually the secret to no-frizz hair. Gals, let's revolutionize!

7. Smart hacks for 'teeny tiny' bathrooms

Maximizing your space does the trick. Installing some pullout drawers in your toilet cabinet makes your bathroom spacious and organized.

8. DIY storage hacks to keep your bathroom neat and tidy!
