5 Ways Beauty Subscriptions Save You Time And Money

If you love makeup and beauty items, but hate spending tons of money trying to figure out which products are best for you, try a beauty subscription! By paying an estimated amount each month, you are sent multiple products without having to go into the store or drop a portion of your new paycheck. For example, my subscription to Ipsy is only $10 per month, and I get four sample-size products and one full-size product. There are so many benefits of subscribing to a monthly beauty package that you probably didn't think of at first.

Here are five ways a beauty subscription will save your time and money you can spend elsewhere!

1. Sample-size products let you try without waste.

Who doesn't love samples? Sample products allow you to try a new product without buying the full-size or wasting what you don't end up using. Plus, the amount of sample brand name items you'll get versus the actual cost of those items is next to nothing when it comes as a subscription package.

2. You'll discover new brands.

Okay. Maybe you're a stickler for MAC or Too Faced, but discovering new brands can be a lot of fun! Who knows? Maybe you'll find your new favorite brand of nail polish or fall in love with a blush you've never tried before.

3. Smaller products mean space and travel-friendly.

Typically when you buy a lot of products, you waste a lot of space trying to store all of them. When products are smaller, you'll be able to fit more of them in half of the space. Plus, your products will be travel-friendly for when you're on your next getaway. Never settle for the drugstore travel section again!

4. No more wandering around stores and becoming lost.

This is more so geared for in-store shoppers who may spend hours in Sephora figuring out what to buy next, or which product will work for them. Although asking for help is totally fine, a subscription can help pinpoint items that fit your needs best. By asking you questions based on your lifestyle and preferences, you can receive items meant for you without having to scour a store. Spend your time doing other things rather than stressing over your next purchase.

5. It's like a monthly present to yourself.

Who doesn't love receiving a little package with goodies inside each month? A subscription is like a monthly gift to yourself because you deserve it! A bit of pampering and experimentation goes a long way when you work so hard. Plus, chances are you'll forget about it until it arrives (making it even more exciting)!

Don't know which brand to choose? Find the right subscription for you!

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.

"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.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies.
