Do you want a blinding highlight but don’t have $50 to spend on one product? How about a rainbow collection of lipsticks for the price of 1 high end liquid-to-matte formula? Do fancy eyeshadow palettes catch your eye, but the price makes you cringe? What if you could have all of those without breaking your budget? Well, you can! Here are 5 products that will help you slay your makeup without slaying your wallet.


Elf Baked Highlighter

Get. Ready. To. BLIND. This highlighter is sold in drugstores and online, and it’s worth every penny of its $4 price tag. When applied with a highlighter brush it gives a delicate, natural glow. Wet the brush first and you’ll get an extremely foiled, pigmented sheen that you can see from outer space.


Colourpop Ultra Matte Lips

The trend of velvety matte lipstick has taken the beauty world by storm. However, most liquid lipsticks cost at least $18. Colourpop, however, offers a wide range of liquid lips for only $6 each. They offer just about every color imaginable, from subtle nudes to bright reds to vampy purples. Added bonus: you can enjoy your favorite foods while wearing them, they won’t budge or transfer.


NYX Finishing Spray

There is no worse feeling than spending hours on your makeup just to have it fade after a few hours. NYX Finishing Spray is a refreshing mist to spritz on after you finish your makeup that leaves it looking flawless for only $8. Available in a matte finish and a dewy finish, your makeup will stay how you applied it from morning to night.


Maybeline The Nudes Collection

You don’t have to spend your entire paycheck to get a mix of matte and shimmer natural eyeshadows-this one costs about $8. The Nudes palettes feature twelve pans in a variety of colors and finishes perfect for a sultry smoky eye or a soft, everyday look. They even come in several variations including The Blushed Nudes, The Rock Nudes, and The 24K Nudes.


Revlon ColorStay Liquid Liner

Winged eyeliner pairs perfectly with just about any eye look, but super pigmented formulas can be pricey. Revlon ColorStay Liquid Liner offers an easy-to-draw-with tip, a rich, pigmented formula, and a matte finish all for under $6. As if that wasn’t enough, it is also long lasting and does not smudge or fade throughout the day.


Wanting to expand your makeup horizons can be painful to your bank account, but it doesn’t have to be. Sometimes the best products are those that aren’t expensive at all. And when they cost this little, you can afford to try them all.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

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.

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.
