Why Huda Kattan Is My Role Model

Huda Kattan aka Huda Beauty: "Makeup artist turned business woman"

For the past year or so, I have been crazy about Huda Kattan, one of the most popular, well-known beauty bloggers in the world. Her Instagram page has over 19 million followers from all over the world. She has influenced the world of beauty so much in the last couple of years and has become a beauty guru that inspires many on a daily basis.

Her beauty line, Huda Beauty, is originally based out of Dubai and first started out selling her famous false lashes. In 2016, she launched three new products, including the lip contour, liquid lipsticks, and an eyeshadow palette (and may I say, it's by far my favorite eyeshadow palette!). In 2017, she launched more liquid lipstick colors and two 3D highlighter palettes (which I just bought and am totally obsessed with!). Her makeup line was originally available at the Sephora stores in the UAE but she has expanded to the Sephora stores in the US and other countries as well. Huda Kattan is literally beauty, brains, and girl boss all in one!!

Here are some of the reasons why she's my role model...

1. One woman = dominating the world of beauty, literally all over the world

2. She's a mother, a wife, and an ultra-successful business woman. She has clearly managed to do what she loves, build a family, raise a child, and be successful.

3. Built her beauty line from the bare minimum and is expanding it constantly.

4. Her work and family brings her immense amount of joy and you can see it through her Snapchats and her Instagram posts/stories.

5. She's living life to the fullest and is constantly encouraging women to be themselves!

I truly think Huda Kattan is someone to look up to. She's an inspiration to women all over the world, especially me. She is fearlessly living her life with positivity and remains close to her family and friends. Huda Kattan has built a company from the ground up and manages it all with the help of her sister, Mona. I think she's fully captured the importance of happiness, family, and independence. She's inspired me and showed me that a woman can raise a family, be a successful girl boss, and dominate the world all at the same time!

Things I Am Actually Going To Do This Semester

Or at least try to do.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Or at least try to do.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

2. I will look decent for class.

3. I will go to the gym more.

4. I will go to the library and study more.

5. I will meet new people.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

2. Disappointed you let it get this bad

5. In the words of Lorelai Gilmore "Coffee, Coffee, Coffee"

Oh, so done.

You need sleep, but also have 13 things due in the span of 4 days.

1. When it's December 1 and you have seven things due, three exams, and haven't slept in three days.

2. So you stress.

3. And cry.

4. Then call your mom to cry some more.

5. After the pep talk, you feel determined to get everything done.

6. But, now you're tired.

7. And really hungry.

8. Suddenly, it's 2 a.m. and you have only written three sentences and your paper is due in the morning.

9. You've made it to Friday... somehow.

10. Then Sunday hits and you find yourself back at the Lib.

11. So you cry some more.

12. But, you fight through the tears to get everything done because you're determined.

13. In the end, you feel on top of the world because you made it through the last week of class alive.

14. But, now it's finals week so good luck.
