If you’re in college like I am, your classes are probably online now due to the coronavirus. Since taking classes virtually is very different from in person, I thought I’d share some tips for how to succeed in online classes. If I’m being 100% honest, online classes are not my favorite, but I’ve taken them over the years alongside my regular schooling to learn some tips and tricks.
Well, this whole pandemic thing is certainly uncharted territory… Like you, I’ve been stuck at home because of coronavirus so I thought I would come up with things to do at home during social distancing. My thoughts go out to everyone who is having a hard time during this outbreak. My emotions come in waves: fear, boredom, anxiety, etc. I know many of you are feeling the same. Anyways, I hope these activities provide ample distractions during this strange time.
Today I’m going to be reviewing the COSRX 3 Step Blackhead Removal Kit. This kit is a set of 3 separate nose masks: soften, clear, and relax. Overall, it takes about 25-30 minutes to go through the entire kit. COSRX is a top Korean brand that specializes in effective skincare at a great price. As you can probably tell, I’ve been on a big K-beauty kick. Below, I breakdown each step of the blackhead kit.
I started double cleansing my skin a couple years ago and since I started, I never looked back because the results are amazing! Today, I’m going to be going over what double cleansing is, the difference between oil and water based cleansers, and how often we should be double cleansing. Let’s get into it!
I started using the Fresh soy cleanser after I was getting over the purging season I experienced while using the Murad anti-aging cleanser. After a week of using the Fresh cleanser, I was absolutely hooked because I had glowing skin that was significantly less red and irritated.
A few months ago, I started seeing ads for Sheertex tights pop up on my social media accounts. It’s not often that an ad catches my eye, but I was intrigued by Sheertex’s claim that their tights were unrippable. Sheertex was nice enough to send me a couple pairs to actually give them a try and I’m here to say, their tights are truly phenomenal!
Since everyone has different budgets for Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d share some fun cheap date ideas that work with a college budget! Whether you love V-Day or you think it’s cheesy, I think it’s a fun day to celebrate the people you love (call your mom too!). The best thing about all these date ideas (besides that they’re affordable) is you can celebrate with your galentines as well 🙂
Nécessaire products caught my eye because I kept seeing them all over my insta feed so I thought I would give them a try myself! I was also really attracted to their sustainable packaging and clean beauty ingredients that had been so hyped.
Read, Watch, Listen is a collection of articles, videos, and stories that have caught my intellectual eye. There’s a variety of fun stories I’ve read or watched as well as some social issues that are important to discuss. Enjoy 🙂
