How Lush Changed My Skin
@lushcosmetics

I only just figured out what Lush was when I started going to school last year in downtown San Francisco. I may have seen it on other people's Instagram, but other than that I had no clue what it was. There is a Lush store just a block away from my school (so awesome), and one of my really good friends took me there for the first time. Boy, did I get some amazing products. I discovered the world of Lush Bombs, shampoo bars, and so many other products they carried, but the best part was that they are organic and cruelty free. Also, everything is handcrafted. I love watching how they make the bar soaps or bombs on their YouTube page (Lush Cosmetics North America).


The reason why I love Lush so much is that since I have very dry skin, I could never find the right skincare line for me. I always felt other products dried me out, especially when it came to moisturizers! I seriously still had dry patches on my face, and my foundation wouldn't stay on my skin. But that all changed when I tried out Lush. The associates at the store near me are always very helpful and knowledgable, which I had never experienced in previous skincare stores. It also smells amazing in there. You just want to try everything, or grab something to feel how the products are.

Since the first time I have gone to Lush, my skin feels so much softer than ever before, and my uneven skin tone has been corrected so quickly! I also have very sensitive skin, and so far none of the products that I have tried have caused me to beak out or given me any reactions. The other thing I have gotten to love about Lush is their price points. They are affordable and well worth it; even for their small sizes, you get a ton of product. Also, they do a ton of 'Save the Ocean' campaigns, and right now they have a 'Save the Sharks' campaign; they made a Shark Fin Soap for shark week to raise awareness for many causes! Overall, I will definitely stick with Lush Cosmetics for my skincare and haircare for a really long time! I am going to list the products I have used so far. The face products are mainly for dry/sensitive skin, but try them out. It will be worth it!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
