If you love skincare as much as I do, you have probably heard of Mario Badescu. Beauty gurus have raved about his brand for a while now, but his facial sprays are especially popular.

For example, the rosewater facial spray has flown off of shelves because rose water is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Using pure rose water can help reduce skin irritations, acne and eczema.

Mario Badescu is not a trustworthy brand and the facial sprays are a scam.

In 2014, thirty-one customers using Mario Badescu's facial creams filed a lawsuit against the company due to being injured by undisclosed steroids in the products. The facial creams were marketed as all natural, botanical products, but really contained addictive steroids.

While Mario Badescu's facial sprays may not contain anything dangerous, the ingredients certainly are not as natural as the brand leads customers to believe. On the rosewater facial spray, roses are not even listed as one of the top five ingredients. Mario Badescu's rose water contains several chemicals that may not be safe for all skin types.

Speaking from personal experience, I will tell you this: Mario Badescu's rose water did not improve my skin at all. In fact, it dried my skin out tremendously.

Have I had friends who swear by this facial spray?

Yes, but they're always the friends who grew up with naturally flawless skin. If you have sensitive skin and tend to react strongly to chemicals, this product is not for you.

There are many rosewaters on the beauty shelves that contain two ingredients: water and rose.

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.

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.
