Beyoncé Knowles has been a busy Queen B recently, promoting her new visual album, Black Is King, and using her platform to urge people to vote in the in the upcoming US elections.

With all this important, world-changing work to do, it's no surprise she has little time to talk beauty these days (we get it, we really do). But that doesn't mean we can't trawl through the archive to a bygone time when she shared her beauty routine with the world.

Of all the product recommendations and beauty hacks the singer has blessed us with in the past, there's one we can't believe we missed the first time around, and it's to do with her sky-scraper eyelashes...

In an interview with Allure, Beyoncé once shared a genius (and very affordable) hack for making your eyelashes stay curled as well as adding shine. She told them:

"I love the Rosebud Salve in the blue can. I wear it with my lipstick. I did this trick last summer, when I was on vacation: I used it to prime my lashes before curling. It was like a natural mascara. It made the lashes hold the curl and look shiny. I use it for everything!"

We can confirm that the product she's talking about is Smith's Rosebud Salve, £8, a humble multi-use balm used by celebrity makeup artists around the world.

We love a multi-use product (nearly) as much as we love Beyoncé, so we're all over this lash hack. Thanks, Beyoncé of beauty past.
