During the holiday season, college women's pockets are getting lighter and lighter.

Suddenly you find yourself wanting to treat yourself, and then you find yourself using every last cent you have for your super fancy foundation that you've been wanting to get for three months. It's no shocker that Sephora costs a pretty penny, but at least there are ways to beat around the huge price tags.

Make sure to follow the tips and tricks below to ensure a bit less of loss this holiday season!

1. Get your Sephora Insider card, fast!

Everybody knows rewards cards can't hurt, even though some are strictly credit cards. You're in luck, because Sephora's rewards cards are only point and merit-based, meaning the more you spend, the more points you accumulate. Wait for days that are "five points every dollar" rather than the original 1:1 point system that happens when sales aren't around.

2. Order online for three free samples!

Ordering online can always be a drag, especially being that many times it takes a long time to get the shipment in. However, with every order, Sephora offers three free samples for you to try, as well as shipping for any order over a specific dollar amount. These free samples could range from perfume to eyeshadow to lipstick, so they definitely cost something!

3. Sign up for Insider Rewards and receive a free makeover!

When shoppers who accumulate the VIB Rouge level at Sephora come into the store, they are able to get a free makeover from one of their stylists. Not only do you get to have free luxury products on your face, but you get to be guided amongst the dozens of brands they have available with a stylist, and also someone who can help you choose what brand is right for you.

4. VIB members get free stuff on their birthday!

No one hates the idea of getting free stuff on their birthday. With a purchase made on your birthday month, you get access to a free gift. This past year they gave away Smashbox contour kits ranging in price between $20-30.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

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.
