Here's How To Buy A Full Face of Makeup For $25
Jasmine Head

Buying makeup and researching makeup brands has become one of my hobbies. I watch YouTube tutorials on the latest product releases daily, as routinely as eating my morning bowl of cereal. I have reward cards to every beauty store, from Ulta and Sephora to CVS and Walgreens. As much as I indulge in making expensive purchases on freshly stocked merchandise at high-end stores, I can't help but make comparisons to similar drugstore products. $25 will get you just a Kat Von D liquid lipstick in Sephora, but below I share my tips to get a full face for the low price of $25!

1. Wet N Wild Photo Focus Foundation, $5.99

This foundation will help you take the best selfies, EVER! It has light-adjusting complex to prevent white cast in photos (no more looking like a ghost! Well, except if you have pale skin like me, and you just have to realize you'll always look ghostly).

2. Rimmel London Kate Sculpting Cosmetic Kit, $6.49

This is the ultimate trio for a nice summer glow: a gorgeous shimmery hightlight, a bronzy contour shade, and a bright pink for added flush. Its all included for ONLY $6.49, too! That knocks out three different types of products all in one easy to use palette. Our total is up to: $12.49.

3. E.l.f. Eyebrow Kit, $3.00

This kit has a wax and a creamy powder to fill in your eyebrows with. I never realized how important eyebrows are in completing your full face look! This is a steal at $3. *I would also double this as an eye-shadow by blending the powder into your crease for some added definition!* Total: $15.49

4. Essence Get Big! Lashes, $3.99

Essence is such an underrated brand in my opinion. The brand is sold at Ulta and it's sooo affordable! I love their eyebrow products, eye-shadows, and their mascaras, like this one here. For $4, it's a nice lengthening mascara that boosts your lashes to be more voluminous in seconds. Total: $19.49


5. Wet N Wild MegaLast Liquid Catsuit Lipstick, $4.99

Want to try out matte lipsticks but don't feel like investing in a $20-$30 lip product? Try this incredibly pigmented one from Wet N Wild that will only cost you as much as a meal at Wendy's. This liquid lipstick has a doe foot applicator that scarily mimicks the ones found on Jeffree Star lipsticks, so its like you are getting a Velour Lipstick for more than half the price. Final Total: $24.49!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
