College Girls Love These Beauty Products
It’s that time of the year. Summer is ending, temperatures are dropping (to below 80 degrees, anyways), and college girls everywhere are putting the finishing touches on their dorm room decor. For me, the first week of class is when I yield my cutest looks of the year. At this point, it’s still warm enough to wear a dress and not freeze to death and I don’t wake up with under eye bags the color of Barney the Dinosaur. A recipe for success. The first week of class is a fresh start to start new (and hopefully healthy) bits for the semester.
I have quite the ritual in the morning before class. I am not one to wake up ten minutes before class starts and run out the door, oh no. Unluckily for my roommate, I am most definitely a morning person. If my intention for the day is to go all out with a full face of makeup and a planned out ‘fit, which on most days it is, I am likely awake and functioning at least two hours before class (yes, even if I have a class at 8 AM). Rushed makeup never turns out as flawless as it does when you take your time. Trust me, I’ve learned that the hard way. Now, this isn’t to say that it is a requirement that anyone has to do their makeup for class everyday. There are definitely days where I wake up and the most I want to do is throw on some sweats and put my hair in a bun. It’s all about balance! Makeup is an art form, and today isn’t the day to put on makeup, that’s fine. At the end of the day, the reason we are there is to be educated and get that degree.
Let’s just get this out of the way: If you haven’t already noticed, I love makeup. I love applying it, I love wearing it, and I love talking about it. So, when I say I wear a full face, I mean a full face. But, as much as I love makeup, I still can’t afford to be spending an hour on my makeup every morning. I have places to go and papers to turn in!
