11 Experiences When Buying Kylie Cosmetics

Trying to buy Kylie Cosmetics during a launch/restock requires strategy.

Kylie Cosmetics

For almost a year, Kylie Jenner has been blessing the world with her amazing lipkits. Now when they first came out I wasn't very trusting of the line. I waited until product had been delivered, there were reviews, and changes. When she launched her Valentine Day collection, I knew I had to get my hands on Mary Jo K. I began following her on snapchat to get all the insider scoop that you can for free. With each new shade and new product I have been dying to get my hands on all of my favorites. Somehow there is always like literally so much demand and SOLD OUT. It's so frustrating. She recently has been stocking her store and there are some products that you can still buy online. Her birthday collection and her new Kyshadow have been recently released, and I MUST HAVE IT ALL, however so does everyone else, and it's back to her being sold out of product in 5 minutes or less. If you have ever tried to get a product to a launch it may have left you feeling like this:

1. Research

You've searched the hashtags on instagram and twitter, you've seen Kylie's swatches. YOU ARE READY!

2. Getting Ready

You have your phone, your computer, and your significant other's devices all ready to go on the sight logged into your account with so check out is a breeze, or with it in the search bar. Your card is ready by your side and you are waiting for the clock to turn.

3. IT IS TIME!

The clock strikes and you refresh, and refresh and it's still not open. Then you remember you must retype the web address. IT'S NOW OPEN!

4. FIND PRODUCT AND ADD TO CART

This is not a drill, you've looked at the sight before and know where to go. There is no lolly gagging around, this is business.

5. YOUR ON HOLD

Okay just calm down, there's like 100,000+ customers on the sight, it's better than crashing.

6. IT SOLD OUT

One of the items in your basket sold out, and now you're contemplating the whole cart.

7. CHECK OUT JUST DO IT

Your a VIP, all of your shipping information is in! Just don't look at the total, or shipping cost.

8. YOU ARE NOW THE OWNER OF A OR A FEW KYLIE COSMETICS!!!

9. BUT LIKE I NEED IT NOW.

Waiting for it to be packaged and shipped is a cruel and unusual punishment after all you went through to get it.

10. IT HAS ARRIVED

Seeing that black box in the mailbox is like christmas morning.

11. SELFIES FOR EVER

Take as many as you want, you look amazing.

Kylie has came and taken the cosmetic world by storm, and has also improved my lipstick game. I can't wait to see what else she comes out with!

While you wait for the next restock, check out some of the dupes!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
