10 Things Makeup Addicts Are Tired of Hearing

Every makeup addict knows that once they start talking, there is no stopping point. The worst part about being obsessed with makeup is when people try to be patronizing about what you love.

Here are the top things every makeup addict eventually gets annoyed of hearing.

1. "That's really bad for your skin."

Although it has been a problem in the past, the advancement of makeup makes it less harmful for your skin.

2. "You're so much prettier without it."

Your nice old aunt may mean well, but most likely, I already know I look good without makeup, it's just a thing I enjoy doing.

3. "Where do you find the time?"

Where do you find the time to go jog in the morning? Or get out to buy morning coffee? If you feel like doing it, you can make time to put in the effort.

4. "Why do you wear so much makeup?"

Because it's fun and I look good in it!

5. "That lipstick is way too dark for you."

OK, but that purple lipstick looks amazing for me and boosts my confidence by 200%, so it doesn't matter if it's "too dark."

6. "Why do you waste your money when you can buy other things?"

A lot of things could be considered a waste of money; if it makes you happy, it shouldn't be considered a waste.

7. "Why is your face so oily?"

No, that's not because I'm prone to oily skin, I just love highlight!

8. "Aren't those colors the same?"

Sure Kylie Jenner's Dolce is similar to Colourpop's Teeny Tiny to Ofra's Mocha, but they are beautiful and I need all of them to live.


9. "By wearing makeup you're deceiving us."

I'm sorry that my bright red lipstick and gold eyeshadow made you believe they were a part of my face when they weren't. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

10. "Girls who wear a lot of makeup are stupid."

Apparently, it's a stereotype that girls who like to wear makeup and look pretty aren't as smart, but it is perfectly allowed to be able to multitask and be a girl who loves beauty as well as becoming a doctor.

Because whether you like makeup or not should not be the basis on which you get judged on.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
