THEY'REa vital tool when it comes to Christmas wrapping. <\/p>\n
But one woman who couldn't find her scissors when she sat down to wrap some gifts came up with a whole new way to cut the paper to size. <\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
Jasmine labelled herself a "genius" as she took to TikTok to share her hack – holding open a roll of wrapping paper as she used an eyebrow shaper to slice it where she needed to. <\/p>\n
"No more scissors, use an eyebrow shaper," she wrote over the top of the clip.<\/p>\n
"Thank me later!" <\/p>\n
"I have just come up with the most genius thing," she wrote in the caption. <\/p>\n
"I lost my scissors but this works amazing."<\/p>\n The eyebrow shapers are also known as face razors, and have a sharp piece of razor blade attached to a bit of plastic. <\/p>\n They're often used at home for "dermaplaning" – where people carefully remove the hair and peach fuzz on their faces. <\/p>\n And people in the comments section were quick to praise Jasmine for sharing the tip, with one writing: "So smart omg!"<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "It works with cutting sellotape too!" Jasmine replied. <\/p>\n "Where were you with this hack last night?!" another commented. <\/p>\n "Thank god I saw this, I\u2019m starting wrapping today thank you!!" a third added. <\/p>\n As someone else wrote: "Genius! Makes me fume when the scissors don\u2019t glide down perfectly."<\/p>\n "Makes a perfect cut," Jasmine responded. <\/p>\n "I always make it wonky with scissors!"<\/p>\n "I legit just found a bunch of eyebrow shavers when sorting my drawer out, thanks for the hack," another commented. <\/p>\n "EXCUSE ME?!? how is this not viral, this is genius!!!!!" someone else praised.<\/p>\n But others weren't quite as convinced, and pointed out that using the blade could end up damaging the floor beneath.<\/p>\n "I'd end up going through the carpet," one joked. <\/p>\n As another laughed: "I'd be needing new flooring for Christmas". <\/p>\n "Give the carpet a trim whilst you're at it,"a third commented. <\/p>\n And some even used the comments section to share their own hacks for cutting wrapping paper. <\/p>\n "Nah use a knife I've been using a Stanley knife for years – 10\/10," one wrote. <\/p>\n "I use a wrapping paper cutter. Best \u00a31.40 investment of my life," another suggested. <\/p>\n "My dad would fold the paper and use a ruler," a third laughed.<\/p>\n Shelling out on wrapping paper can be expensive if you've got a lot of gifts to wrap up for the big day.<\/p>\n But it was recently revealed that Costco's double-sided paper – witha Santa print on one side and a winter snowflake effect on the other – is a game changer. <\/p>\n One woman shared her top tip on Facebook, as she said that the paper's such good quality, and there's so much of it, that it will last her for ages. <\/p>\n ''All ready wrapped loads of presents up and as you see loads more on the roll,'' she said. <\/p>\n "Got this two weeks ago I'm sure it was \u00a310, no vat on it as well.<\/p>\n ''Other years paying \u00a330 \/40 on thin paper or tape does not stick to it. <\/p>\n "So glad I got this!"<\/p>\n And she wasn't the only fan of the Costco paper. <\/p>\n ''Use this every year, it\u2019s amazing and so thick compared to other paper," one person commented on the post. <\/p>\n "Lots of choice in designs too.''<\/p>\n ''Always use this one side for one child, another side for the other, no tags needed,'' another wrote. <\/p>\n ''I've had 2 rolls of this for 3 years now and it doesn't even look like I've touched them! Last forever,'' someone else chimed in.<\/p>\n<\/picture>MUTED MAKEOVER <\/span><\/p>\n
