A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear- Marilyn Monroe

Here are several tips:

1) If you have bought any makeup products and are not satisfied with them, you can return them. The majority of places will take them back gently used.

2) Be wise while in college about where you buy your makeup. Yes it is your choice to buy your makeup from where you want to, but I advise you to think about it. Reason being is you'll save a lot of money by purchasing makeup at a drug store. For example, CVS or Walgreen.

3) One place where makeup lovers and people who are trying to do new things look for makeup tutorials is on YouTube. Discounts for products can often be found in the description boxes below videos. Some makeup tutorials are given by Denitslava Makeup, Laura Lee, Christen Dominique, Amanda Ensing, Chloe Boucher, Naomi Jonzeck, and many more.

4) Instead of buying several lipsticks, you can explore options by combining two shades. If you don't seem to like a color and wear it add another to it to make it pop.

5) Mascara can be hard to get out when their is clumps of dry mascara. A trick I've learned is to put the whole mascara container in a cup of hot water.

6) Have you ever noticed that mascara wands can sometime have too much product on it? This tends to make lashes look chunky. Here's a tip to help you fix all that.

Also if you just want to clean the wand that is also shown in the video.

7) If you clean the mascara wand like the video shown above you can use the mascara wand to clean some tough to reach places on other makeup products, or for house work, or jewelry.

Baby Wipes

8) Some people think that just because a product says makeup remover, they automatically assume that is what they need. Honestly, you don't always got to use makeup removers like, Neutrogena makeup remover cleansing towelettes. You can use baby wipes or DIY cleansing towelettes.

9) When you apply any types of foundation try not to use a sponge, save money and use a brush. You can easily clean a brush and use it again. Same thing with a sponge but takes longer to clean.

10) There are always makeup bloggers who sell their own line of makeup and tend to do discounts. So you have to keep up with them and see what they have in store for you.

11) If you have a makeup purse and all your products can not fit you can compromise. You can take some lipstick, eye shadow, and depot them into mini containers or in a lipstick, or eye shadow palette. Easier on the go.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

College is an endless cycle of crappy, sleepless nights, tedious, boring lectures, and hours of never-ending piles of homework.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
