From attending classes all day to staying up all night to finish homework, college is exhausting. Being tired is more than just a mental state, it can start to affect your physical appearance as well. Use these five beauty hacks to make those dark circles disappear and look well rested.

Drink more water.

Being reminded to drink water can seem annoying and redundant, but it is extremely beneficial on the body! Staying hydrated by drinking at least eight glasses of water a day can help your skin appear more dewy and healthy. Not only that, but it can also help prevent acne. Why not kill two birds with one stone?

Add a brightening serum to your skincare routine.

Skincare products containing hyaluronic acid can be your best friend after a long night of studying. Not only will it hydrate your skin, but it will also help it appear brighter making you seem more awake. This makes it the perfect college essential.

Don't forget to wear blush.

Blush is a makeup essential, especially when your face needs some extra color. Adding a fresh flush of color will help you look more lively and youthful.

Do a face mask at least once a week.

Face masks are a great way to give your skin a pick-me-up after a long week. And the best part of it is there are plenty of different kinds of masks that will work well with your specific skin type.

Skip the bottom lash-line mascara and eyeliner.

Last but not least, one of the most important beauty hacks to keep you from looking tired is avoiding lower lash-line eyeliner and mascara. Putting eyeliner and mascara there can just make your dark circles more prominent.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
