The 5 Beauty Products You Are Missing In Your Life

On a daily basis, I am a relatively simple girl. But it is a tough day that you will find me without the bare minimum products on. Today, I will tell you my five beauty products I would grab if the world was ending. Each of them has been in my life for so long, these spots are well earned.

5. It's a 10

A quote from my mom on damaged hair is that it's "fried, dried and laid to the side." Damage can be caused by any heating tools we use along with color treatment. Since I personally use heat and color on my hair, I must use an awesome conditioning treatment in order to save the quality of my hair. It's a 10 has 10 different claims of keeping your hair strong and beautiful. I just use a small drop of the deep conditioner while in the shower leave it in for about 4 minuets and poof! Hair that is manageable and strong.

4. NYX Cosmetics Lipstick


#NYXCOSMETICS Lipstick is a perfect quick product to step up your face from "I just woke up" to "glamazon." After trying millions of lipsticks, Nyx Cosmetics Matte is my go-to. They have multiple lines of lip wear and I will say the soft matte cream is also amazing. But for a daytime look that needs to look like you spent time getting ready today, the Shade Tea Rose is your girl. I have used it for multiple bridesmaids to give them a perfect finished look. And you can find NYX in so many stores like everyone's favorite, Target, for around $6. What else could you ask for?

3. Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional Face Primer


No one want's to have huge pores, but for those of us who were left with pores you can see, there is a primer that will help minimize the pores we have and serve as a base for our foundation. Additionally, from being able to minimize pores, this wonderful primer is also oil-free, which is great because I also have oily skin, as well. After trial and error with many primers, this is my number one. The great thing is you can get the super small tester size at Ulta if you don't believe me and want to try before you commit $30 for a full size.

2. Tarteist Lash Paint Mascara

This countdown is based on products you would want in your bag for days when you don't have all day to keep applying coats and coats of mascara to get your lashes to look beautiful and full. The Lash Paint Mascara is awesome for one or two coats — you will have lashes set and ready to go. I will warn you, it is a fairly wet formula, so be careful to let it dry so you don't get it on your eyelids. Ultimately Tarte did an awesome job at getting you instant lashes.

Tip on mascara: Always purchase the trial size because you should be throwing away your mascara within three months regardless of how often you use it. Once you use it the first time, your clock starts.

And my number one "ride or die" beauty product is...

1. Pur Minerals 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Powder Foundation

At this point, we have started to discuss all my personal skin issues, which I could go on for days about. But knowing I personally love all these products for the fact that I want to keep break outs away, I have discolored skin that changes daily along with oil coming out of my huge pores, you know why I love this product. This foundation offers coverage of all my issues. There are 11 shades you can be color matched for at Ulta, so don't worry! I love that I can apply my foundation without a mirror on the go and touch up later and never worry about the shade not matching my skin.

I hope you try one of these products and it becomes you favorite as well. I know I have talked up each of these products to all my friends. If you have already tried a product share this and let everyone know which you already love.

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.
