Makeup is such a dominant hobby now, but the products can be so expensive, especially the ones that our favorite beauty bloggers recommend. Worry no further, because this list will have you looking snatched on a tight budget!

1. Moisturizer - Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion

Moisturizer is such a vital role in your makeup routine and it is easily missed. The Cetaphil Moisturizing Lotion is $13 at Walmart.

2. Primer- e.l.f Mineral Infused Face Primer

Primer is always iffy, especially when trying a new one. It can really make or break your foundation, but this one does the job for cheap! Get the e.l.f Mineral Infused Face Primer at Target for $6.

3. Foundation- Maybelline FIT Me!

This line of foundation from Maybelline is genius! It comes in liquid and stick form, which you can choose between matte or dewy. If you have oily skin, go for the matte. Dry skinned folks should grab the dewy. Buy it from Walmart for $6.

4. Concealer- Maybelline Instant Age Rewind

This concealer is an oldie, but goodie. I remember trying this when it first came out while I was in middle school, and its been holy grail ever since. You can get it from Walmart for $8.

5. Powder- Coty Airspun Powder

This face powder smells like Grandma, but it works like the Fairy Godmother. Drag queens love this stuff, and I can see why! Grab yours from Walmart for $12.

6. Contour- Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer

This bronzer was introduced to me relatively recently, but I will never go back to any other bronzer/contour! This smells like coconuts and blends like a dream. Walmart has it for $14.

7. Blush- Milani Baked Blush

My favorite thing about this blush is that is has a subtle shine that brightens your cheeks. They have it at Walmart for $8.

8. Highlighter- L'Oreal True Match Lumi

glow baby! It has a pink undertone perfect for any skin type. Walmart has it for $11.

9. Brows- e.l.f Brow Powder Duo

This brow duo kit is an extremely cheap dupe for the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade. Its really smooth and distributes product evenly through the brows, but the best part? It's only $3 from Walmart!

10. Eyeshadow- Maybelline The Nudes Palette

This is an awesome everyday palette because there are a good number of matte and shimmer shades, and the colors aren't too extreme, either. You can get your own for $12 at Walgreens.

11. Eyeliner- NYX Matte Liquid Liner

This eyeliner is a great product for beginners because it is cheap and so easy to use! Target has it for only $5.

12. Mascara- Maybelline Great Lash Mascara

Lemme tell you something. This mascara has been with me through thick and thin, sweat and tears, and the worst: my middle school days. If you have not tried this mascara, BUY IT NOW!!!! Target has it for $5.

13. Lipstick- Milani Matte Liquid Lipstick

This lipstick will last you all day! It's extremely comfortable and there are so many color choices in this formula. You can get it at Target for $7.

You see, having awesome makeup doesn't necessarily mean you have to go into Sephora or Ulta and drop a couple hundred bucks. Just go to your local drugstore and find these top-selling products, and you're set.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
