15 Signs You're Obsessed With Sephora
Dulles Town Center

I understand that makeup is not for everyone. Some people enjoy a more natural face, or some just could not care less about spending hours a week putting stuff on their face that they are only going to remove a few hours later. However, for those people like me who enjoy painting our faces on the daily, the utterance of the word "Sephora" gets our hearts racing. It's an obsession, and while the effects on my wallet are tragic, there are way worse things to be obsessed with in my opinion. So perhaps if you think that you may have a Sephora problem, keep your eyes out for these signs.

1. The first thing that you do in the morning is check the "Just Arrived" page on Sephora's website

You never know when something new and unexpected is going to show up, so you just need to be prepared. It is important work.

2. Your Instagram feed is filled with the companies in Sephora

As if checking the website weren't enough, you need to see these new products delightfully displayed and put into action by makeup artists and models.

3. You have about 100 Pinterest boards filled with makeup looks that you tell yourself you will try one day

Try as you might, you more often than not will end up going back to the same look that you always do, or you will just spend an obscene number of hours trying to match the pictures, yet never have it come out like you want it to.

4. You are subscribed to Sephora Play!

What is better than having makeup sent right to your house on a monthly basis?

5. It takes the jaws of life to pull you out of Sephora

Need I say more?

6. You have racked up an insane amount of Beauty Insider points

So now you can get even more makeup for free!

7. You are always looking and complimenting everyone's makeup

Excuse me while I stare at your face.

8. People come to you for makeup advice

I get to talk about makeup more? Let's get some snacks; this could take a while.

9. Your arms are well-accustomed to swatches

That is probably why Sephora needs to be the last stop of the trip.

10. You lack the ability to leave a mall if a Sephora is there

My Sephora senses are tingling. I can sense makeup testers.

11. Your Beauty Insider card is the only card that you know the location of in your wallet at all times

If I am going to be spending the money, I am going to need to get my points.

12. When your friends think of Sephora, their first thoughts are of you

Maybe that isn't a good thing. Maybe I do have a problem.

13. Your highlight is always on point

It's subtle, right?

14. You get heart palpitations every time you see that box on your doorstep

I've waited my whole life for this moment.

15. You may have a bit of a spending problem, but at the end of the day, it is completely worth it

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
