Best Face Masks To Tackle Your Specific Skin Type

Acne and Blackheads:

GLAMGLOW SuperMud--

This mask has six acids and some charcoal to pull the yucky stuff out of your pores. Not only does it help with acne and blackheads, but also razor bumps, ingrown hair, and oiliness, and scars. It goes on a dark gray and dries a light gray but you can see it working because the areas where sebum and oil are being extracted turns almost black.


Pore Pudding by Boscia--

This mask blends black charcoal for drawing out impurities and the white charcoal to control future oil production for a more matte skin.

Large Pores:

Though the masks above help to minimize pores as well, there are others that specifically target large pores in order to treat them more powerfully.

Caolion Premium Hot and Cool Pack--

This two-part Korean face mask has a heating mask and cooling mask. Like the GlamGlow and Pore Pudding masks, the heated mask opens the pores and draws out the impurities, preparing it for step two. Once you've washed off the heating mask, the cooling mask is applied and the cold will close your pores so fewer bacteria can enter, creating a cycle for clear skin.

DIY version: You can also simulate the same function of the mask by either using the skin clearing masks or washing your face, then dunking your face in ice cold water for a few minutes.

Oily Skin:

Oily skin usually happens when your skin is too dry. Always moisturize and even consider using a night oil. When your skin is dry your pores produce extra oil, which gets trapped under the tiny dry skin, causing acne and an oily face.

FIRST AID BEAUTY Skin Rescue Purifying Mask with Red Clay--

For oily skin, the SuperMud and Pore Pudding work pretty well, but if you're looking to address just oily skin, go for First Aid Beauty's product. Just make sure to moisturize right after; this brand has an amazing moisturizer line.


Drunk Elephant Marula Oil--

This product is amazing for acne prone, aging, oily, dry, any skin really. Whenever I go to sleep with this oil on I wake up with my skin clearer and better looking.


Boscia White Charcoal Mattifying Makeup Setting Spray--

If your face gets oily throughout the day, especially in this heat, I recommend this Boscia product. White charcoal is amazing for controlling oil production so this 2-in-1 setting spray/skin treatment keeps your makeup free from any oil damage.

Dry Skin:

Sunday Riley Lactic Acid All-In-One Treatment--

This is great for brightening, resurfacing, anti-aging, clarifying, and moisturizing your skin.

GlamGlow Thirsty Mud:

Super moisturizing, and can be worn overnight.


The Drunk Elephant Marula Oil is great for dry skin too!

Dull/Uneven Skintone/Antiaging:

Sunday Riley Lactic Acid All-In-One Treatment--

This treatment is great for a lot of things, but if you're looking for the best anti-aging skin care, this is it. Using this over time will make your skin look brand new.


Drunk Elephant TLC Baby Face--

This 25% AHA and 2% BHA mask chemically exfoliates and resurfaces skin, with a tingling sensation your skin will look brighter, more even, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.

Dark Undereye Circles:

Boscia Sake brightening under eye masks--

This saved me during Coachella when I was running on max four hours of sleep for three days and going crazy all over again in the morning. Brightens, moisturizes, and de-puffs your undereye.


Tarte 911 Under eye Rescue Masks--

Firms, de-puffs, treats fine lines, crows feet, darkness while hydrating your undereye.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
