I love make-up, a lot. I constantly watch makeup reviews and tutorials on YouTube (Tati is my absolute favorite!) and my Pinterest is over run with make-up reviews and dupes. This is what I use everyday, and what I absolutely love and recommend. These are all drug store buys and are all 10 and under.

1. Primer : Hard Candy Sheer Envy Primer Long Wear

This Primer is like the glue that keeps my make up on and in place all day, I love this product and use it everyday!

2. Foundation: Rimmel Match Perfection 24hr moisture in 100 Ivory.

I am pasty white, even when I tan I'm still Ivory, and this foundation is only one of the few foundations in my shade that gives me the moisture that my cheeks and chin desperately need and still lets my nose and forehead not look drenched in oil.

3. Concealer: Rimmel Match Perfection 1-2 concealer and highlighter in 230 fair/light

I love this, it gives me the coverage I need and it doesn't cake or sink into my fine lines.

4. Blush/Bronzer: ELF Contouring Blush and Bronzing Powder in the shade St. Lucia

I love this blush, its pigmented but not too pigmented and it gives a nice pinched cheek color to my cheeks without being too noticeable.

5. Contouring palette : Wet n Wild Megaglo Contoring Palette in Dulce De Leche

6. Eye primer: ELF sheer Eye primer

It makes sure my noticeable eye veins are not as noticeable and it makes my eye shadow go on smoother.

7. Eye shadow: Elf Mad for Matte Eyeshadow Palette($10) and Lovesick Noir Palette ($7.50 at Hot Topic)

I love Elf's matte eyeshadows, and the Noir palette has some beautiful sparkly shadows

8. Eyeliner: ELF Waterproof Eyeliner pen

I LOVE THIS PRODUCT! it's so easy to line my eyes and even do a cat eye. I could not say enough good things about this product.

9. Mascara: Covergirl Clump Crusher

I love this, it gives super long lashes and doesn't clump.

10. Lipstick: Nude: L.A. Girl Matte Flat Velvet Lipstick in Snuggle

Pinks: Covergirl in Heavenly Paradasiaque

Covergirl Outlast in Magnetic Mauve

Reds: Elf Matte Lip Color in Rich Red

NYC in Retro Red

These lipsticks are hydrating and super smooth.

11. Lip balm: EOS Lip balm pods

These are so popular and they are popular for a reason. They are amazing and addicting.

12. Setting spray:Hard Candy Fast and Fabulous Makeup setting spray

This stuff is AMAZING, its an extra layer that makes my makeup stay on for as long as I need it.

All in all, all of these products combined will only cost you about $40 or $50 for everything, being obsessed with Makeup doesn't have to be expensive, but you need to be smart about what you purchase, If you love some of these products or want me to try some other products let me know!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
