Summer is a time of bright sun, colorful clothes, and beautiful beaches. And for many people, it's a time to try new things without the constraints of school holding you back-- and since it's said that eyes are the window to your soul, what better place is there to express yourself? So here's a list of must-try eyeshadow palettes from leading brands like Urban Decay, Tarte, Morphe, and BH Cosmetics to show off your stunning summer self!

1. Urban Decay Moondust Palette

This palette has eight beautiful shimmer shades, ranging from a light pink to a dark blue. It's perfect for whenever you want to add a bit of shine to an everyday look or for a quick trip out. It's fancy without being too fancy-- perfect for summer. Specter is my personal favorite shade, especially layered over tan.

2. BH Cosmetics Take Me Back To Brazil Palette

This palette is perfect for adding a pop of color to a simple look-- my personal favorite use for it is to outline my eyeliner with it, adding a 3D effect to the liner and adding color at the same time! It has 35 extremely pigmented pressed shadows. The small size of the pans may seem limiting (most of the shadows are approximately dime-sized), but bright colors are not often used, so this palette lasts longer than expected; I've had mine for nearly a year, and I haven't hit pan on any of them yet. This is my absolute favorite color palette and is perfect for summer.

3. Tarte Be A Mermaid And Make Waves Palette

This palette has 14 matte and shimmer shades made with Amazonian clay, all of which have an impressive color payoff. Additionally, the palette component is absolutely stunning-- it's an iridescent blue-green seashell compact.

4. Morphe Jaclyn Hill Eyeshadow Palette

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.
