12 Summer Beauty Tips

With summer around the corner, beauty routines should get switched up! Summer brings lots of changes, like changes in the air and skin. The sun is very strong and damaging, so we need to make sure that we use extra protection. Here are some beauty tips and tricks that are super helpful for summertime!

1. Use a foundation or BB cream with high SPF

Although this is not ideal for photos, it's better to protect your skin.

2. Don't forget to use lip balm, also with SPF, whenever you are outside

Your lips get burnt too, and believe me, it isn't fun.

3. Exfoliate your skin every few days

It helps to get all the extra dead, gross skin off. However, don't overdo it because it may make your skin more susceptible to burn.

4. Stay moisturized


Being in the sun for long periods of time will dry you out, so keep your skin extra hydrated!

5. Deep condition your hair

Along with keeping your skin hydrated, it is also important to protect your hair.

6. Use cream products on your face

Powders may dry out your skin, but creams will give you the summer glow that everyone wants.

7. Waterproof everything

If you do decide to put makeup on before going to the pool or beach, waterproof is key. We don't want things smudging everywhere.

8. Setting spray will keep your makeup on


9. Try to avoid excessive heat on your hair

The sun and beach dry it out enough.

10. Don't be afraid to have a dewy finish instead of matte, you don't look oily

11. Keep your face out of the sun and use bronzer to tan it instead

12. Stay hydrated

As much as your body needs the water, your skin also does too!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
