Lipstick is an expression of who you are. The perfect lipstick color can highlight your beauty while showcasing your unique personality. But what about a lipstick color for someone whose life is devoid of any meaningful relationships– close friends, lovers, or even a coworker that you don't want to impale with a ballpoint pen? Fear not, you sassy, independent fashionista. These five lipstick colors are just for you!

Yes, you with the no friends!

1. Beige


Has anyone ever called you Beige? Try wearing a nude lip shade, because nobody needs to call you something that you're already acknowledging.

With beige lipstick, only you know you’re all dressed up. This color is so effortlessly subtle- and not just because you’ve pushed away anyone close enough to notice small changes in your appearance! Friends are basically an accessory for people who aren’t strong enough to go to restaurants alone.

2. Shimmering Red


Use your lipstick to show the world that you're sexy, single, and ready to be single forever because people are trifling. Wear a glossy red shade that shimmers in the dark, like a star in the night sky– easy to see, yet billions of light years away from anyone ever getting to know the REAL you. Don’t take down those shields, honey. Nobody is good enough to scale that wall.

3. Bright Coral


Wear a color that is deeply personal because it reflects your passion for coral reef wildlife preservation– a topic that some people would think is a great discussion to have over coffee, but you really only need to wear it on your lips. You’re not going to spend your money on a vegan scone and a tiny coffee to chat about it with someone you probably hate. Spend that money on a cupcake for one and keep that crap to yourself.

4. Charcoal Black



This startling look may turn heads– heads that usually don't include you in their water cooler chat about Jessica’s passive-aggressive email. Sure, they might get after-work cocktails without you, and sure Darren may have failed to invite you to his Arbor Day potluck even though literally everyone in the office is going including the temp, but just remember that you've got something they don't have: black lipstick. And pride, probably.

5. Any Shade, Worn Around Your Lips


Maybe you've thought at some point, “people just don’t understand me.” Now they don’t have to. Because seriously, who wears lipstick around their lips? People who aren’t interested in listening to idle chit chat from fake people, that’s who. People who boldly march to the beat of their own socially acceptable drum, that’s who. You’re an independent person who doesn’t need the shackles of a close kinship, or the confines of keeping your lipstick only on your lips.

You're a lone, lipsticked wolf among a pack of cliquey fake people, and with these lipstick colors you can let your loner flag fly.

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.
