The Glow Up This Holiday Season Is Real

I wait all year long for the holiday season to come and this year the “Glow up” is real. Forget Frosty the snowman, this year the only frost you’ll need is on your face. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, this season strobing/highlighting your cheekbones has been the IT thing in the makeup world. Celebrate this holiday season by frosting your skin with the season’s most popular highlighters. Who knows maybe your secret Santa will bless you with one of these palettes on your Holiday list!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit Ultimate Glow

Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit Ultimate Glow is a collection of six limited edition powder highlighters available in shimmering luster and metallic pearl finishes. You can mix these shades and layer them together or they can also be worn separately.

NYX Strobe of Genius Illuminating Palette

This next palette will add glow to your complexion! It is

the NYX Strobe of Genius Illuminating Palette, which comes with seven different

powder highlighters. This palette is the perfect option for a solid beginner makeup

collection, best part of it all it goes for less than $20!



Star Light, Star Bright Highlighting Palette

This Stila trio is a little higher price wise, but they’re definitely worth it. This trio can be used for your everyday makeup or you can build it up to have an intense strobed look.

Colour Pop Highlighter

One of my favorite highlighters at the moment is from Colour Pop. Not only is it less than $10 but it is very pigmented. They have various colors, the one I use is Wisp, and it’s a golden champagne highlighter with hues of gold, perfect for a bronzed strobed look. They’re also awesome to use as a base under any powder highlighter for a more pigmented look.

Jeffree Star Highlighters

I personally haven't tried any of the Jeffree Star highlighter yet, but I've heard amazing things about them. He has the basic cool tone, gold tone highlighters but he has also released some funkier colors, like the Deep Freeze or Lavender Snow highlighters. These highlighters are for sure on my Christmas/Birthday list. (Yes, early holiday gifts are welcomed)


High Beam Liquid Face Highlighter

Last but not least this is another one of my go-to highlighters. This high beam liquid highlighter is from benefit. I love using this on an everyday basis, as a base for my powder highlighters and sometimes I even like mixing it with my foundation when I want to go for a more dewy look. It's perfect for any summer day or a frosty winter night.

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.
