There's no point in denying that as the seasons change, so do makeup looks. Bright, vibrant, warm colors, such as orange, are popular in the fall, while pastel, soft colors, such as pink, are used more frequently during the months of July and August. With the recent change in the weather, clothing and makeup has subtly changed as well. These are the three best ways to make your makeup match the season, with the best products to help you achieve it.

1. Cool Colors


What colors do you think of when you think of snow? White and blue are usually the ones that come to mind. Because of this, when you wear a light blue or creamy white on your eyelids, it will match the weather outside. Similarly, a darker, yet still colored, lipstick can remind people of warm blankets on a cold night. Think plum, purple or even a slightly colorful brown pigment.

2. Glitter, Glitter, And More Glitter

This season, feel free to swipe a little bit of glitter eyeshadow, eyeliner, a shimmery lipstick, or even a bright highlighter on. The glitter, being light and sparkly, mirrors the image of snow and rain falling in the colder seasons. Make sure the glitter is a light pigment because lighter colors also work better in the wintertime.

3. Neutrals And Naturals

A timeless look nevertheless, neutrals and naturals are great this season to help tone down the drama. While everyone likes a smoky eye, the neutral look helps to create a softer, more comfortable look, perfect for lazy blanket days. What's even better about these looks is how easy they are to pull off. A normal foundation routine, two or three eyeshadow shades brushed over the eyelid, natural eyeliner and mascara, and an optional nude lipstick. What could be simpler?

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
