Vaseline, the strongest moisturizer to bust dry skin, is the best thing since sliced bread. My mom's obsession has been passed down to me ever since she started using the gentle skin therapy on my precious newborn baby skin. Skin is our largest organ of the human body and must be taken care of as such! I remember watching my mom spend our nights smearing pounds of vaseline on her winter-dry hands to ensure baby soft hands in the morning.

I've been hooked since then.

1. How cute are these baby Vaselines?!

Portable Vaseline! My dream come true.

2. The excitement when Vaseline Intense Care Body Lotion came out

My roommate showed me this scrumptious smelling lotion—Cocoa Radiant body lotion—and, I swear, your skin not only glows, but you want to lick it off it smells so good. Don't judge me until you've used it.

3. The tinted lip is literally the only lip balm I'll ever use

Sorry, Kylie, but your lip kit isn't for me. I'm more than fulfilled with my Vaseline rosy lips.

4. The plethora of uses

It's a miracle worker for almost anything! I swear it's magic. Vaseline's use is more valuable than just what it's advertised for.

5. Vaseline + SPF = mindblown

Yes, you heard it right! There are Vaseline products with SPF! Skincare, here I come!

6. How much Vaseline would it take to fill a bathtub?

Just asking for a friend.

7. Profession: Vaseline hoarder

Hi, my name is Jennifer Kustanovich and I have bottles of Vaseline in my car, under my bed, in my pocket, in my bag, and by this time I wouldn't be surprised if bottles fall out as I walk by.

8. I've consumed a ton of it. Will I die?

Okay, but what is Vaseline? Petroleum jelly doesn't sound like something I want to rub all over myself, but yet I do it anyway. Any doctors or pre-med students to help me with this dilemma? I don't want to end up on TLC's "My Strange Addictions" where my friends drag me to a doctor who tells me that I've been licking, eating, and slathering poison.

For your information, I don't eat the product; but when it's on my lips all day, it's bound to be unintentionally ingested.

10. Jennifer Aniston has the same obsession

Jennifer Aniston. Need I say more? Her porcelain wrinkle-free face is all due to the works of Vaseline.

11. Beauty insider tip: Vaseline is natural mascara

Beyonce is even behind this trick: spread a dollop of the magic on your lashes in the morning/night and watch the sorcery for yourself.

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
