4 Gifts Any Makeup Lover Will Love

Most makeup lovers have an extensive collection of products that, for the people in their life who buy them gifts, are hard to keep track of. Thus, when it's time for you to buy them a present, you can't buy them makeup because you might end up buying them what they already own.

These are things they'll never be mad about receiving and they'll admire you for knowing to get them.

1. Brushes

Giphy

A real makeup junkie knows there is no such thing as too many makeup brushes. Whether you just keep forgetting to clean them or you truly don't have that many, you kind of always want more brushes but don't want to drop those coins one a nice brush set.

Which is why it's a good gift.

Here are some affordable brush options: Colourpop, Wet n Wild, Elf, BH Cosmetics.

Here are some splurge-y brush options: Sigma, Morphe (some sets are cheaper, some are definitely splurgey), Spectrum.

2. Setting spray

Giphy

Whether you use it to spray your face after applying all your makeup, or you use it wet your eyeshadows to make them more metallic, setting spray is a resource that depletes unfortunately quickly.

Buying a setting spray that's available at the drugstore is always an option (Milani makes my personal favorite), but so is spending a heftier price tag at Ulta or Sephora on Too Faced or Urban Decay setting sprays.

3. Makeup removing wipes

Giphy

Makeup wipes seem to evaporate in my drawer. No matter how frequently I buy them, I always seem to need more. These babies are perfect for cleaning makeup off your hand, taking makeup off at the end of the day, fixing winged liner, or even wiping away fallout after doing your eyeshadow. They come in handy a lot, and it doesn't hurt to have a few extra packs on standby.

4. Sephora/Ulta giftcard

Giphy

I feel like this one is pretty darn obvious, but I think that I speak for a lot of people when I say that it's better to have the choice of getting whatever you want than it is to get something you already own/don't want and having to return it, which is a hassle.

So if you're out of options or you just want to make sure they get something they'll actually want, I think that a gift card is a great choice.

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.
