5 Cruelty-Free Makeup Brands To Check Out ASAP

At the end of this past summer, right before school started up again, I decided to get more into makeup. Spending a lot of time and money, I bought a full new set of makeup, including eyeshadow palettes, lipsticks, highlighters and even a new foundation. One of my main considerations when looking for these products is that it is cruelty-free, so here are a few of my new favorite brands that happen to be cruelty free.

1. Tarte

Tarte has everything from AMAZING eyeshadow palettes (my favorite is the Dream Big palette) to blush and bronzers. They constantly have new products coming out, and they're also affordable so I recommend checking them out.

2. Urban Decay

Of course, this is one of the most popular brands out there. I thought it was completely overrated until I tried their products myself, and absolutely fell in love. The Naked Heat palette is the best $54 I've ever spent, and I now use it almost every day.

3. Fenty Beauty

If the fact that this line was launched by Queen RiRi wasn't already enough, Fenty Beauty is also totally cruelty free. Their foundation is AMAZING, and the trophy wife highlighter is something you have to run out an get ASAP if you like sparkles.

4. e.l.f Cosmetics

e.l.f is one of the most affordable drug store brands, but what's cool is that this line, with it's amazing variety of products and colors, is also cruelty free. You can get their products at almost every store, including Target and CVS!

5. Too Faced

Too Faced is one of the most popular brands, with a variety of makeup products! Their eyeshadow palettes are amazing, and also come in very cute packaging.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
