10 Signs You Are Addicted To Makeup

When you REALLY love makeup, it takes over your life in more ways than one.

10 Signs You Are Addicted To Makeup

I have a makeup addiction. There, I said it. Does that mean I am going to stop buying so much makeup or wear less of it? No, no it does not, and I know I am not alone!

If you are obsessed with makeup, then I am pretty sure that you will relate to this. Here are 10 ways that makeup has taken over your life:

You're always running late for one reason.

Anyone who loves winged eyeliner knows the struggle of creating not one, but two perfectly even wings. Even though it is a difficult task, you can't leave home without it, and it generally takes the longest to do out of everything in your routine! So when the person that is waiting for you asks why you took so long, at least you have an excuse!

When all the signs point to one decision but your obsession prevails.

You can ask the opinion of everyone you know and be told "no" 100 times, but we both know that you are going to buy that new lipstick because it's the perfect shade of pink you needed.

You look at your bank account and realize what you've done.

This is the regret stage of buying makeup without a doubt. Oh well, you bought it, might as well enjoy it!

The internal battle you face when deciding if you should buy that new makeup palette.

How could you not buy the newest eye shadow palette? It has colors you don't have, and you'll need those. Right?

The sad and painful realization that your mascara is about to be ruined because of a sneeze.

Applying your mascara is a delicate process. You awkwardly position your face so you don't smudge the product on your eyelid, and then, when you finish applying the mascara, you wait for it to dry. So when you feel a sneeze coming on, you fight it, because you know your hard work will be ruined. When you sneeze, you can't help but close your eyes, and when mascara is wet, this is not an option.

Being completely annoyed because someone who doesn't like to wear makeup decided to comment on yours.

Makeup isn't for everyone, and that is okay, but let's not tear down others for enjoying that extra shimmer on their cheek!

The feeling of being accomplished when you learn a new technique or perfect the way you do your makeup.

It's amazing the difference a little contour can do to your makeup!

The initial feeling you get when your makeup turns out perfectly.

Makeup is meant to accentuate a person's features, so when it turns out perfectly, you can't help but feel like a beautiful princess.

Then followed by a wash of sadness, because it's time to wipe it off.

When bedtime comes along, it's almost painful to wash your hard work away.

How you feel when someone compliments your hard work.

You brush it off like it was no big deal. In reality, you know darn well that it was the most difficult thing you did all day.

You may be addicted to makeup, but at least you know how to blend your eye shadow!

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
