3 Beauty Products That You NEED In Your Makeup Routine

Below are 3 of my personal favorite beauty products that are two things.

1. FABULOUS 2. AFFORDABLE!!

You can look great without breaking the bank.


1. MAC Satin Lipstick - Retro

This shade is one of my personal favorites because of its’ versatility. Besides myself, two of my other close friends also use this shade, each having a very different skin and lip color. It is also perfect for day and night wear. Personally, I wear one coat during the day and two or more in the evening. The texture is one of the best parts about the product, as you can barely tell it’s there. The lip color is not too glossy, nor too matte. The one drawback I have to say about the product is that it is not a super long lasting lipstick, so if you are going for a bite to eat, do not forget to reapply.


2. Urban Decay Liquid Lipstick - Amulet

Urban Decay’s liquid lipstick was a recent find and one I am absolutely psyched about. The liquid lipstick is offered in a variety of shades and finishes including matte, metallic, and even a water resistant topcoat to wear on top of any lipstick or alone. Personally, my favorite shade is “Amulet,” though I look forward to trying others as well. The texture is not sticky as often seen in glosses or liquid lipsticks and the product is long lasting. It is also not a stain, so if you are quickly applying the product, do not worry that if you make a mistake you are doomed. I do recommend, as with many other products, keeping your lips adequately moisturized, as the product can be a bit drying, especially if your lips are already chapped and flaking on their own.


The best part? Many of these shades are currently on sale at both Sephora and Ulta.


3. Luna by Luna Highlighter – Calypso

A brand you may not be familiar with, Luna by Luna offers lip, face, and eye options for makeup fanatics. I have yet to try more of their products, but have been supremely impressed by their powder highlighter. This color in particular is, in my opinion, more for evening wear or for that extra definition on your nose or below your brow, as its power is lasting and pigmented. A little goes a long way for this product, and is sure to make you shimmer throughout the night.

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
