Every summer brings around its own set of trends and looks and summer 2018 is no different. This season is focusing all on natural beauty and a lit-from-within glow. So instead of going through your usual full face, try these products for a fresh and low-maintenance look.

1. Ouai's sun of a beach ombre spray

Remember Sun-In from your youth? It just got a total makeover, complete with citric acids and coconut water. Spray this on your ends or midsection before heading to the beach and watch beautiful highlights emerge when activated by the sun.

2. Nars liquid blush

Summer's all about creamy/liquid products since they're easier to apply and last longer, especially under that grueling summer sun. Nars's liquid blush takes old favorites (Orgasm, Torrid, Luster, and Dolce Vita) and revamps the formula to a liquid consistency. Since the texture is sheer, it's easily buildable and you don't have to worry if you accidentally use too much—just blend the excess away for a beautifully natural flush.

3. Nars radiant creamy concealer

If you want a bit more coverage for problem areas this summer, Nars has you covered (pun!) This formula blends into the skin perfectly to avoid dryness, flaking or caking and doesn't budge throughout the day. Definitely a must for nights out or city dates.

4. Sol de Janeiro's Brazilian bum bum cream

Guys. This smells like a tropical heaven smushed into a jar. Not only does it leave your skin perfectly nourished and supple after a day tanning at the beach, it also leaves behind a faint trace of shimmer for a discreet glow. Along with hydrating your skin, it's also been proven to firm and tighten it as well as reducing cellulite!

5. Glossier's boy brow

Sometimes you want a little definition in your brows without making them look like two rectangular blocks. Glossier's got you. Just swipe on this brow gel and you'll see that it's still your eyebrows, but BETTER. This product grooms and sets your brows and leaves them looking naturally flawless.

6. Maybelline total temptation mascara

For a boost of volume and length, try hitting the drugstore and picking up Maybelline's Total Temptation mascara with coconut extract. I'll be honest, it does apply sort of clumsily at first. However, once you start picking up how to use and twist the wand, your lashes will look perfectly dramatic and won't crumble at any point throughout the day.

7. Soap & Glory's sexy mother pucker

Lip gloss is a perennial summer essential. Soap & Glory's tried and true Sexy Mother Pucker delivers with a subtle wash of color while simultaneously plumping your lips to full perfection.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
