5 Drugstore Makeup Products Under $5 That You Need

Anyone who knows me knows I love makeup. Do I own way too much of it? Yes. Will that stop me from buying more? Absolutely not.

I'm also always on the hunt for a good deal, especially when it comes to makeup, but honestly anywhere I can find a good deal, I'm there. These are some awesome makeup products that don't even need to be on sale to be a good deal, and they're so good I would probably spend more than what they cost just to have them!

1. Wet n Wild Photofocus Concealer

This concealer is full coverage, lightweight, easy to blend, and everything anyone wants from a concealer, really. It's also only $3.99!

The shade range is quite small, but if you can find your shade, it's well worth your $4.

2. Essence Lash Princess Mascara

This mascara is long lasting, doesn't flake, super black, and adds lots of volume and length to any eyelashes. It's available at Ulta, and is easily my favorite mascara of all time.

3. Colourpop Super Shock Shadows

Colourpop super shock shadows are cream-to-powder eyeshadows that pack a punch with their insane pigment and reflect. They're available in so many different colors and finishes that there's sure to be one to suit your fancy. These beautiful babies are best applied with the finger, so if you're a beginner to makeup and don't have a lot of brushes, it's a great option!

I've had my eye on this specific shade, Cusp, for a long time now, and I think it's very on-trend at the moment, and an easy, affordable way to step into the world of colorful makeup is to give a $5 eyeshadow a go.

4. Essence Make Me Brow

Another Essence product? Yes!

This is a tinted eyebrow gel that only costs $2.99! Three dollars and an amazing product.

Essence's Make Me Brow eyebrow gel is a super affordable brow product to give sparse hairs some extra love. It's an easy, quick step in the mornings to give your brows a bit of definition, or a great way to set your brows in place after filling them in.

5. Wet n Wild Liquid Catsuit Liquid Lipstick

These liquid lipsticks are only $5, are pigmented, opaque, smooth, and about as comfortable as a matte liquid lipstick can be. My personal favorite is called Flame of the Game, a bright red-orange, but I've not been disappointed in any of these shades!

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.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
