8 Makeup Products You Need To Try

Hey, makeup fanatics! I've recently been trying a bunch of new makeup products and wanted to share some of my best finds with you! Here's 8 Makeup Products You Need To Try:

1. Tarte Amazonian Clay Foundation

This is a great medium-full buildable coverage foundation! It's thick, so I definitely recommend using a wet blending sponge to put it on in thinner layers. It's absolutely true to color and does not oxidize on your face - so have no fear of turning orange! I would definitely avoid this foundation if you have oily skin as it can be a bit heavier, but for dry-combination skin it's a winner!

2. L'oreal Telescopic Carbon Black Mascara

This mascara is amazing. Let me tell you, it's absolutely life changing. Whether you have long eyelashes like myself or short ones, it will make them look amazing. I can't tell you how many people have asked me if I have fake eyelashes on when I wear this and how many family members I've gotten hooked on it.

3. Mac Soft And Gentle Highlight

I really thought highlighting was a stupid trend at first. Like, we try so hard to stay matte why would we want to put shine all over our face? Then I tried this highlighter - and DAMN did my mind change. This highlight is beautiful and just adds so much dimension to your face. It gives you a nice healthy glow and isn't a chunky, flaky glitter. Seriously, if you haven't tried a highlight yet consider this one.

4. NYX Liquid Lipstick

So I have like, nonexistent lips and this stuff is great. You can over-line your lips without looking crazy and it lasts like, forever. There's so many shades and they dry completely matte. Skip out on those Kylie lip kits and go for these.

5. Elf Contour/Blush Duo

This is a dupe for the Nars Orgasm/Laguna duo, and it's only $3. It's super pigmented and pretty long wearing. For the price, there's no beating it.

6. Lorac Pro Palette 3

These eyeshadows are awesome! I'm not a big eyeshadow person but when I wear it I always reach for this palette. There's shades to create a look for every occasion in here! Whether it's a matte smokey eye or a shimmery neutral look you will find everything you need in the Pro Palette!

7. Benefit Gimme Brow! and Precisely, My Brow Pencil

I thought eyebrow products were dumb. Like, who actually takes the time to do that? Then, I found myself at Ulta impulsively spending $40 on some Benefit products and I get the hype. Eyebrows can make or break you, and these products are definitely worth it. I recommend going a shade or two lighter than your natural hair color with these so you don't look too crazy, though.

8. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer


Save your money on that pricey concealer, because this stuff covers EVERYTHING. It's not too thick and goes on super flawlessly and it'll cover any imperfections.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
