5 Beauty Essentials You Need Right Now

These are the ones that you won't regret buying!

1. Glossier Lash Slick

What's a list of beauty essentials without a Glossier mention? I'm sure you've heard this before, but the Glossier Lash Slick is the only everyday mascara you need. It makes you look like you're not trying too hard with your makeup, in the best way possible. I wouldn't recommend for a bolder lash look, however, for the purpose of Lash Slick is for everyday wear, for sure.

2. Milk Makeup Cooling Water

If you don't have any products from Milk Makeup yet, it's time you change that. One of the best decisions I ever made was to purchase their Cooling Water, which probably sounds like nothing you've ever heard of. It's literally a roll-up stick (kind of like deodorant) that keeps cold somehow 24/7. The aim of Cooling Water is to depuff any area of your face that looks tired/puffy, but it works as an amazing primer (which I use it for any time I put on makeup). The cooling sensation even helps with headaches!

3. Trader Joe's Rose Water Facial Toner

I'm sure you've heard of the famous Mario Badescu's Rosewater Spray , and this Trader Joe's version is just like this one. Either works beautifully, but you're probably at your local Trader Joe's every week or so, making it even easier to pick up a bottle (rather than heading to Urban Outfitters or ordering the MB version online). Use a spritz to keep your makeup in place or just to keep your skin hydrated and fresh. I live by this stuff.

4. Glossier Balm Dot Com

Instagram

Another cult-favorite Glossier product you've probably already heard all about. What everyone is saying about Balm Dot Calm is true, and yes, you do need it too. This lip balm leaves your lips feeling ultra-moisturized and works fabulously as a lip gloss (the way I use it most) without feeling too sticky. Not to mention there's eight flavors to choose from; my favorite is coconut!

5. Too Faced Peach Blur Finishing Powder

Instagram

Looking for a new powder that will leave your face looking smooth and dewey? Look no further- Too Faced's Peach Blur Finishing Powder is here to solve all of your problems. I've used this for years and swear by it now. After concealer, my normal loose powder, and highlighter (and sometimes blush) I pat this baby on everywhere using a brush like this one and voilà! Smooth and dewey finish! And the powder is only 30 bucks!

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.
