Do you ever consider how much money you've invested in your makeup? We all have those beauty products that we spend way too much money on, but couldn't live without. These products are beyond your usual collection of foundation, blush, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara and transcend the world of looking really, really good. Here of are a few of my favorite unnecessary beauty products, that I honestly don't know why I bought, but I'm so glad I did.

1. Marc Jacobs Glitter Mascara ($26, Sephora)

That's right y'all, I'm talking about designer glitter in a tube.

2. Kylie Lip Kit ($29, kyliecosmetics.com)

The real reason you want this is just to say that you got one in the five minutes before they sold out.

3. Mineralize SkinFinish Lightscapade ($32, MAC Cosmetics)

Because why not add a little extra shimmer to your face?

4. Too Faced Better Than False Lashes Mascara ($35, Sephora)

It's only $10 extra for another one millimeter of length added to your lashes.

5. Too Faced Hangover Primer ($32, Sephora)

Who knows the difference between this and Jergen's lotion from the drug store?

6. Urban Decay B6 Vitamin-Infused Complexion Prep Spray ($33, Sephora)

Even better than designer glitter is designer water. And we're not talking Voss, people.

7. Beauty Blender ($20, Sephora)

This sponge better be laced with gold.

8. Too Faced Lip Injection ($22, Sephora)

Let's be real, we all just like how it makes our lips tingle.

9. Christian Louboutin Silky Satin Lip Colour ($90, Sephora)

This lipstick better still be on my lips in my casket.

10. St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Mousse ($49, Sephora)

God forbid you just go and get a spray tan.


The sad thing is, there isn't a single one of these products that I would substitute with a drug store version or stop buying altogether. Just remember, beauty doesn't come cheap.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
