You either love makeup or you don't. Those of us who do love it, have countdowns until our favorite brands launch new products, buy all the limited edition holiday collections, and really don't care that you think we might just be a little bit crazy.

The mini heart attack you have when you drop your favorite bronzer

It doesn't matter how much it cost, your heart will stop every single time.

“I’m only buying one eyeshadow palette” *Walks out with three new eyeshadow palettes, a highlighter palette, and a new mascara.*

I mean it's just like going to Walmart when your hungry right?

Bracing yourself before you dip into a loose powder so your outfit doesn’t get messed up.

Translucent setting powder is the quickest way to ruin an entire outfit.

The slight feeling of shame when the person at the register says “Thank you for being a Rouge Member” or “Thank you for being a Diamond member”, or if you are me, you are both….

Hey at least I use all my makeup right?

At least you know exactly which drink is yours because of the giant lipstick or lipgloss marks on your straw.

No explanation needed...

Somehow your makeup melts off in under an hour when you go out, but when you go to take it off at night it takes five makeup wipes and you’ll go through two or three rounds of rinsing off cleansing balm.

You'll still wake up in the morning and find some makeup on your face too.

Only having one bag filled with clothes but having two bags filled with makeup when you travel.

It's not my fault Natasha Denona dropped two beautiful palettes before I saw all the limited edition holiday collections.

Explaining to your significant other that yes the two new red lipsticks you just bought are completely different.

An orangey red and a more blue red are two very different things.

Wait Sephora is giving us discount codes???

If you've ever shopped at Sephora you know exactly what I'm talking about.

At the end of the day as long as you have on makeup, it really doesn’t matter what you wear out of the house.

At least my makeup looks good right?

When your winged eyeliner is perfect and people ask you why you took "so long to get ready" 

Winged liner is an art that takes a long time and extreme levels of care.

Obsessing over the packaging when a new product is launched.

It's an experience, OK?

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Everyone, and I mean everyone has heard of the show "One Tree Hill". Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
