My Top 8 Makeup Products
Speeli

Personally, I don't feel the need to do my makeup every day. If I had the time, I would. Simply because I love doing my makeup, and it does make me feel more confident. I find it to be relaxing, when I'm not rushed. Here are some of my favorite products, in no particular order.

1. Beauty Blender

I don't own an actual Beauty Blender, but I do own a makeup sponge very similar to it. Fairly recently I discovered that, "Hey, getting it wet really does make it work better." It makes it larger and easier to apply foundation evenly. It's also good for building the product; for more or less coverage.

2. BB Cream

As far as BB creams go, I prefer Dream Pure BB by Maybelline. It's has a decent coverage, for a BB cream, and it evens out the skin tone very well. This has been my go to BB cream and is my everyday face makeup.

3. Eyeshadow

Urban Decay's Gwen Stefani eyeshadow palette is by far my favorite so far. It's mostly neutral, matte and shimmery, but it also has a few more intense colors for special occasions or days that you want to go bold.

4. Bronzer

My favorite bronzer, for summer, is Tarte's Amazonian clay waterproof bronzer in "park ave princess." I just dust a bit of this onto my cheekbones to make myself a bit less pale and a little more glowy.

5. Concealer

So I have the worst under-eye bags and dark circles, and this is the best that I have tried to cover them. I haven't tried anything high-end, but I like how it feels on my skin and highlights under my eyes.

6. Finishing Powder

I haven't decided if I prefer loose powders to pressed powders or not, but I do like this powder. It's lightweight and sets my liquid foundation nicely.

7. Eyelid Primer

This helps to smooth out the creases on your eyelid and makes the eyeshadow more vibrant.

8. Face Primer

The POREfessional face primer by Benefit helps to minimize pores, smooth skin texture, and just create a good base for foundation. After applying, your face will feel smooth and ready for the next product application.

I'm still figuring out this whole make-up thing, but so far, these are some of my favorite products. I'm finding more and more products that I like and dislike. It's all about finding products that work best for you and your skin type.

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.

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.
