Face it. We all break out due to hormones, stress, sleep deprivation, and bad weather. Online beauty gurus often suggest complex and expensive skin products leaving us all feeling overwhelmed. If you want to have better skin without spending your entire paycheck, then read my recs below.

Cleanser

https://www.amazon.com/ACURE-Brilliantly-Brightening-Facial-Packaging/dp/B003Z4OD24

The first product I use is a kelp and green clay cleanser/scrub. This will wash off toxins, makeup, and any natural residue on your face. Use it in the morning and night. It's $9.99 and can be found in Ulta, Amazon, and Target. Sea kelp helps to retain skin moisture, while green clay tightens pores to prevent further acne breakouts and exfoliates away dead skin.

Serum

Next, use a serum to help even out your complexion and prevent signs of aging through vitamin C. The addition of Vit C helps to get rid of facial toxins such as free radicals (a chemical imbalance that increases aging). This serum $21.99 on Amazon, and it does help to smoothen out your skin after scrubbing it. After using this, my skin feels as soft as butter.

Moisturizer

https://www.amazon.com/Acure-Organics-Anti-Aging-Natural-Bundle/dp/B00Z19WYTU/ref=pd_sbs_194_t_0/136-0690027-0710430?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00Z19WYTU&pd_rd_r=639269a1-4394-4e14-aadb-f23d3c756dbd&pd_rd_w=kSYBg&pd_rd_wg=UJao9&pf_rd_p=5cfcfe89-300f-47d2-b1ad-a4e27203a02a&pf_rd_r=NQRCBMWXP0WGB6BQXVK9&psc=1&refRID=NQRCBMWXP0WGB6BQXVK9

My last step is either Acure's Brightening Facial Scrub's Night or Day Cream moisturizer, depending on when you're putting it on. Moisturizer helps retain all the products for better absorption and prevents dry skin. Both these are around $26.00 on Amazon.

This entire regime is around $50, and definitely worth the time and effort. Drink water, sleep, and have flawless skin. Remember to take time out for self-care.

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.
