I'm not the biggest fan of store bought face masks because you really don't know what's actually inside them! Tired of not being able to pronounce the ingredients that are in your "all natural" face mask? Try making your own face mask with some of the foods below.

1. Apple Cider Vinegar

This incredible vinegar balances the PH of your skin, fights wrinkles, removes toxins from your face, and fights acne.

2. Avocado

Avocado is full of healthy fat, antioxidants, and vitamins like Vitamin E and Vitamin C. It can hydrate your skin naturally and bring out a beautiful glow.

3. Cinnamon

Cinnamon kills acne causing bacteria and can gently exfoliate your face.

4. Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is a moisturizing miracle. It kills bacteria that causes acne while deeply nourishing and hydrating your face.

5. Coffee Grinds

Coffee grinds are perfect for exfoliating and waking up your face. They are an anti-inflammatory, so using coffee grinds on your face helps reduce redness.

6. Honey

Pure, Raw Honey is full of vitamins. It helps break down oils on the skin and will thoroughly hydrate your skin. It's also great for exfoliating if the sugars have built up in the honey over time.

7. Oatmeal

Oatmeal removes excess oils and bacteria from your skin while exfoliating away dead skin cells.

8. Yogurt

The lactic acid in yogurt helps rid of dead skin and tighten your pores. It can reduce the signs of aging.

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.
