5 Of The Best Beauty Products For The Summer

Are you sick of your make-up running and staining the strings on your COVID-19 face mask? It is time to discover products that are long-lasting and built to indoor rising temperatures.

Due to summer humidity and mask wearing requirements in public across the country, it is important to find beauty products that are natural and durable when constantly sweating. These have been some of my favorite summer-glow products that don't make me feel oily or sticky. They are versatile for every-day glimmer looks, dewy summer night vibes and keeping your skin healthy and moisturized in general without causing break-outs.

1. Isle of Paradise

Coming in first place is the Isle of Paradise self-tanning water running at $28.00 at Sephora. It is a color-correcting light- coverage self tanner that provides a natural sun-kissed look without causing break-outs. The product is also cruelty-free and 100% vegan. Just add around 10-12 drops to your daily moisturizer and mix it together on your face. I live-by this product and so glad I made the purchase!

2. Laneige

The Laneige lip sleeping mask has been raved about by several youtube beauty gurus and is definitely worth the $22.00 Sephora purchase. This lip mask is most sold in their original pink bottle, but is now sold in apple lime, vanilla and sweet candy flavors. It is an overnight serum that can be used nightly depending on how dry your lips are. Just use the mini applicator the mask comes with and apply generously over your lips and wash it off in the morning for incredible results! This is a must buy!

3. Glossier

Glossier's cloud paint is a gel cream-blush and one of their best selling products. It is a buildable product that blends in well on bare skin and with foundation. It is the perfect light-weight blush for summer, comes in several different shades and is also cruelty free! It is sold at Glossier in a decently sized bottle on their website for $18.00.

4. Iconic London

The Iconic London Prep Set Glow Hydrating Spray is one of my favorite setting sprays for summer make-up looks. It leaves my skin looking fresh and sparkly as a natural highlighter. Definitely spray this product at a distance so that it does not make your skin too moist. This product is sold on Sephora's website for $27.00 and comes in two different glowy finishes.

5. Charlotte Tilbury

Charlotte Tilbury's lip liner in the shade "pillow talk" is their most popular shade for a reason. It is a rosy nude pink and looks great with any fun eyeshadow shade you want to play around with for your look. It also is long-lasting and I find does not rub off my lips and onto my mask as easily as other lip products. The lipstick and lip liner mini set run at $25.00 on Sephora's website, which is a pretty solid deal for how long these products last!

Always make sure to check for allergies you might have to certain ingredients when purchasing these products and hope you enjoy some of my summer beauty favorites!

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Whether you grew up going to the lake, have only recently started going, or have only been once or twice, you know it takes a certain kind of person to be a lake person. To the long-time lake people, the lake holds a special place in your heart, no matter how dirty the water may look.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
