Everything You Need To Know About Good Skin

Skin is weird. When you really think about it, the skin on our face is different from the skin anywhere else on our bodies. It is more sensitive, it is softer, and it is always the first thing people see. Here is the exact skin routine you need.

1. Know your skin.

What type of skin do you have - oily, dry, sensitive, combination. Skin routines and products vary for everyone. The things that work for me don't work for my mom. Everyone's skin is different so don't follow this word for word.

2. W A T E R

Hydrate!!!! Hydrate!!!! Hydrate!!!!! This may or may not make a difference for you, but I promise at the end of the day your skin will thank you.

3. Wash twice a day

I personally use a GENTLE exfoliant every morning and a cleanser at night. This helps my skin a lot, especially with blackheads, but can be really harmful to other people. No matter what you use, you need to wash your face twice a day, this will help clean your skin and make sure you have a fresh face to moisturize.

4. Moisturize 

Whether your skin is dry or oily or whatever, moisturize. If your skin is oily, moisturizer can help dry it out so it isn't over producing and causing blemishes. Dry skin, obviously this speaks for itself.

5. Listen to your skin.

Your skin talks to you. Through dry spots, pimples, wrinkles, anything, your skin is constantly telling you exactly what it needs. Pay attention to it and figure it out.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
