In high school, there’s an endless amount of style and diversity. As fall is now knocking at our door, let's analyze some of the trends we’ve seen so far this year.  Firstly, Polka-Dots. These have been a major look recently, mostly seen in nails. Many students' go-to pedicures consist of quirky polka-dot patterns, often in shades of blue. Dots have been all the rave on Pinterest in the past year, continuing to grow in popularity with no end in sight. Aside from mani-peds, dots are also being implemented into different fabrics and accessories. Dotted headbands, handkerchiefs, and even eccentric overalls are popping up more lately. As autumn is here, we can expect to see more muted colors blended into this. Instead of the go-to coastal blue polka-dots, we’ll see more baby-blue and periwinkle.   Next, let’s talk about the most prominent trend this year, Navy Blue. This deep, shadowy shade has been a staple in both men and women's fashion. We’ve seen the hue in teens clothin...

One day, I woke up and was a thirteen-year-old girl, raving over how excited I was to be going into high school – the next, I was fifteen, at the height of puberty with my hormones all over the place.       I quickly realized that I wasn’t a little girl anymore who could stay up all night, stuffing my face with every sugary-carb-packed snack I wanted. These actions would now have consequences. It didn’t matter if I used the most expensive skin-care products in the world, and stopped wearing makeup every day, my skin was a disaster. After struggling with acne from my freshman year up to my senior year, it became my greatest insecurity that I had no clue how to fix. And so, I decided to do some research. Eventually, I identified the problem. Hormonal acne.   ...

With the shimmery clean-girl makeup look continuing to rise in popularity, this school year is keen on following the trend! After social media stars like Hailey Bieber and Addison Rae popularized the “clean girl” aesthetic, followers flocked to try their spin on the style. After doing my research, here's a detailed breakdown on how to achieve this charming look. DO: First step, a lightweight base is a staple for this makeup look. The Bobbi Brown Skin Long-Wear Weightless Foundation provides full coverage while minimizing oily shine on the skin. By mixing the foundation with a body shimmer or sunglazed SPF, you’ll have a dewy base that gives a “second skin” effect.  DON'T : The key to the clean-girl look is not piling on many layers; the second you’re skin starts looking “cakey,” you’ve done something wrong. If you already have clear skin with little to no texture, skip the foundation step and simply apply a bit of concealer. The Wet n Wild PhotoFocus Concealer will give you ...
