18 Thoughts You Have Playing The Most Dangerous Game, AKA Shopping Sephora On A College Budget

Amber Scholl

I have grown up loving makeup. I am an avid collector and love spending my free time watching makeup reviews on YouTube. The worst part about the makeup addiction is when your wallet is thin. Ulta and Sephora trips are all look and no touch. Which is so disappointing.

These are some casual thoughts I have playing the dangerous game that is strolling through the isles of any makeup store.

1. Ooohh, this is new!!!

But it is all sold out.

2. Wow. this looks super pigmented

IS NOT...

3. Is this a new eyeshadow palette?

Six out of the seven shades have an over-sexualized name.

4. This new foundation by _____ has so many good reviews...

But it doesn't have a pump... Honestly, why do companies even make foundation with no pump?

5. I have always wanted to try this. But I think I'll use my gift card on something else that I don't actually need. #TreatYourself

6. Does this come as a deluxe sample or mini size?

7. OMG, insert YouTuber's name here collaborated to make this!

8. I wonder how many points I have...

At Ulta, points give you money off, and at Sephora, you get free gifts!

9. Is there a coupon online?

What a life saver..

10. Is there a sale?

BOGO 50% is what I live for.

11. These are cute.. but do I REALLY need fake lashes???

12. Crap I forgot my birthday gift...

Both Ulta and Sephora give birthday gifts.. but they also have a deadline.

13. This is beautiful!!

$85.00

14. Maybe a lipstick instead...

15. I can actually afford the lipstick

Unlike eyeshadow palettes and foundation.. lipstick is ALWAYS cheaper!

17. Why is this line so long, is it even worth it?

18. The answer to the previous question is always YES

SUNY Geneseo

Resting b***h face. Defined as a person, usually a girl, who naturally looks mean when her face is expressionless, without meaning to. Many of you suffer from this "condition."

8 Things You'll Never Hear College Students Say

Nope, never.

Fordham University

Fordham Ram

College students, you might be able to relate to this one. These probably sound familiar because we often tell ourselves these phrases; however, we are unable to follow or agree with these the following, deep down inside of our overwhelmed, tired minds.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

Until you walk into a 99 cents store and suddenly have the urge to pick up anything that's less than a dollar.

Leslie gets it.

Your professor mentions there's a test in a few days and you didn't know about it.

You spend all day long in class and now realize you also have to spend the next few nights awake studying.

You take out your textbook and notes, but don't have the energy to actually read them.

You keep reading the same sentence over and over, but it still doesn't make sense.

You can’t focus, and your roommate suggests you go to the library.

You realize there are still over 50 pages left to read.

You reach the two-hour mark of studying and get delirious and want to give up.

You take a Netflix and snack break.

Your friends told you they were staying in with you to study, but they end up going out.

Your friends ask why you need to study instead of having fun.

Your friends send you pictures of them out having fun, but you're stuck in the library and want to run away.

You walk out of the test and realize staying in and studying was worth it because you definitely aced it.

No, I'm not mad, that's just my face

1. You can't control it.

2. You are not always pissed off.

3. Most of the time, you're just fine.

4. Usually, nothing is wrong.

5. Sometimes, you use it to your advantage.

6. But you actually are approachable most times.

7. Fake smiling is tough.

8. You are not actually a b***h.

Nope, never.

1. "No more spending money on useless things"

2. "I'm going to be a responsible adult"

3. "I will stop spending so much money on food"

4. "I will take great notes in all of my classes"

5. "Goodbye, procrastination"

6. "I had a great, relaxing weekend"

7. "I don't miss homemade food"

8. "I'll start studying for finals one month early"

No one best represents the struggle like our favorite 90s squad.

1. When course schedules are released and you have a conflict between two required classes.

2. When there is only one section of a popular course.

3. Receiving the 18,000 emails reminding you to register ASAP.

4. When you need to see an advisor, but they are too busy/unresponsive.

5. Trying not to dress like a bum for your appointments with your advisors/department heads.

6. When you have a perfectly planned out schedule, and one class ruins it.

7. Carefully moving things around to accommodate a different class/section.

8. Waking up at 6:00 a.m. for your enrollment time.

9. Concocting a new schedule at your enrollment time after your original plan gets changed.

10. Getting into a class and filling the last available seat.

11. When all of your classes finally go through.

12. Realizing that you forgot a class that was a pre-requisite for everything else.
