5 Things You Understand If You Draw On Your Eyebrows

Every year there seems to be a new beauty trend that everyone gets really into. This year it seems to be contouring, two years ago it was lipstick, and last year it was eyebrows. Now it seems like every person in the world who wears makeup has an everyday eyebrow routine. Drawing on your eyebrows every day can be fun and do wonders to your face, but it also can have its downfalls.

1. It adds time to your makeup routine

It could add anywhere from 3 to 10 minutes or more depending on how you do them and how good you are at doing them. When you're first starting out, forget it; makeup wipes are your best friend. Messing up in inevitable. Don't worry, as time goes on the time spent doing your eyebrows decreases, as well as the number of makeup wipes you'll go through in the mornings. It also adds money to your Ulta receipt total.

2. Your friends will try to rub off your eyebrows

For some odd reason once people find out your eyebrows aren't real, they make it their life's mission to rub them off, especially in public places. This never goes away. People are literally going to beg you to ruin all the hard work you've put into your eyebrows. You'll say no, and they'll still try. You become really good at avoiding people's fingertips.

3. Hugging people becomes scary

There's the people who will purposely try to rub off your eyebrows and then there's the ever-present fear that someone is going to hug you too close or bump you by accident and completely take off your eyebrow. It happens! One day you're going to be minding your own business and someone is going to get too close to you and you will no longer have an eyebrow there. It’s one of the most awkward things. “Oh, sorry. I just got some of my eyebrow on your shoulder.”

4. That one day you decide not to draw them on will change your life

Sometimes you just don't feel like dealing with your eyebrows and you won't do them one day and everyone will be amazed. It'll feel like you forgot to wear clothes or shoes. You'll be surprised at how many people didn't know that your eyebrows weren't real, which is kind of a confidence boost. It just means that you’re super good at doing your eyebrows. This is what we strive for. However, people will never forget and for the rest of your friendship will try to rub them off.

5. Your eyebrows basically look different every day

“Your eyebrows are sisters, not twins,” will be the most annoying thing you'll ever hear, but it's true. There's no way that your eyebrows are going to look the same every day; they won't even be identical. Especially if you use an eyebrow pencil to draw them on. You just have to learn to roll with it each and every day. It's like the surprise at the bottom of the cereal box.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
