Eight Beauty Products You Need in Your Life ASAP

Are you looking to amp-up your beauty lifestyle in 2017? From magical drying lotion to life-changing lipgloss, I have you covered!

1. Mario Badescu Drying Lotion


According to my mom (an ex-model), Badescu's drying lotion is the preferred acne drying lotion for most models. Dab a spot of the treatment on your pimples overnight and say adios to your acne! Typically, the pimples are minimized to the point where they are practically non-existent by morning.

2. Trader Joe's Coconut Body Butter


This Coconut Body Butter is incredible for those harsh winter months. From your hands to your body to your feet, this luxurious (and extremely affordable) product does miracles for dry and crackly skin.

3. Cover FX Custom Enhancer Drops


I didn't know what love was until I met this illuminator by Cover FX in an empty isle at my local Sephora. Boy oh boy―I refuse to use any other illuminator after buying this bad boy. Although the expensive cost deters many (I was super hesitant to purchase the bottle), just one drop of this product makes you glow like a Grecian god! Seriously. Every time I step into the light while wearing this product, I can virtually hear Kanye's "Ultralight Beam" playing in the background.

4. Laura Mercier Tightline Cake Eye Liner



For someone who is not very crafty with eye liner, I almost never fail to get complimented on my eyes whenever I use this product. When a makeup artist at Laura Mercier applied this to my eyes the first time I used it, she described the process of applying the liner to watercolor painting; you tap your eyeliner brush in a drop of water, brush it over the palette, and apply to your waterlines. It's subtle, elegant and chic―all at the same time.

5. Mario Bedescu Facial Spray With Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater


You can't go wrong with Bedescu. This spray is the perfect refresher/setting spray for midday, especially during sweltering hot summers, or for hydrating before you go to bed.

6. Outrageous Volume Mascara by Sephora


Talk about Va-Va-Voom! One coat of this product, and your lashes are instantly Hollywood-worthy. I usually apply several coats for a more dramatic look.

7. Clinique Turnaround Overnight Moisturizer


This product is especially great to apply to your skin after a long night out. For someone who sometimes takes the L and uses makeup wipes to remove makeup, this moisturizer can compensate for an otherwise low-maintenance removal process.

8. Runway Red Lipgloss by Anastasia



As Lil Mama says, "My lipgloss be poppin...And all the boys keep stopping." With a ruby red color akin to Dorothy's iconic slippers, this lipgloss is a show-stopper. However, this lipstick is not meant for the faint of heart―the shimmery texture has the power to stop passersby's in their tracks. You have been warned.

New Year, New You, New Makeup Routine! Be sure to try out some of these products to truly elevate your beauty game in 2017.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
