A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear- Marilyn Monroe

Here are several tips:

1) If you have bought any makeup products and are not satisfied with them, you can return them. The majority of places will take them back gently used.

2) Be wise while in college about where you buy your makeup. Yes it is your choice to buy your makeup from where you want to, but I advise you to think about it. Reason being is you'll save a lot of money by purchasing makeup at a drug store. For example, CVS or Walgreen.

3) One place where makeup lovers and people who are trying to do new things look for makeup tutorials is on YouTube. Discounts for products can often be found in the description boxes below videos. Some makeup tutorials are given by Denitslava Makeup, Laura Lee, Christen Dominique, Amanda Ensing, Chloe Boucher, Naomi Jonzeck, and many more.

4) Instead of buying several lipsticks, you can explore options by combining two shades. If you don't seem to like a color and wear it add another to it to make it pop.

5) Mascara can be hard to get out when their is clumps of dry mascara. A trick I've learned is to put the whole mascara container in a cup of hot water.

6) Have you ever noticed that mascara wands can sometime have too much product on it? This tends to make lashes look chunky. Here's a tip to help you fix all that.

Also if you just want to clean the wand that is also shown in the video.

7) If you clean the mascara wand like the video shown above you can use the mascara wand to clean some tough to reach places on other makeup products, or for house work, or jewelry.

Baby Wipes

8) Some people think that just because a product says makeup remover, they automatically assume that is what they need. Honestly, you don't always got to use makeup removers like, Neutrogena makeup remover cleansing towelettes. You can use baby wipes or DIY cleansing towelettes.

9) When you apply any types of foundation try not to use a sponge, save money and use a brush. You can easily clean a brush and use it again. Same thing with a sponge but takes longer to clean.

10) There are always makeup bloggers who sell their own line of makeup and tend to do discounts. So you have to keep up with them and see what they have in store for you.

11) If you have a makeup purse and all your products can not fit you can compromise. You can take some lipstick, eye shadow, and depot them into mini containers or in a lipstick, or eye shadow palette. Easier on the go.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
