An Engineer's Beauty Diary

Hello and Happy Sunday! Today's post is going to be something a bit different, as it isn't going to be anything to do with beauty, but a post to help out my fellow university students who are on the lookout for their first internship. If you're looking to get your very first internship, the idea can be extremely daunting. I was overwhelmed and had absolutely no idea where to start, when to start looking, and how to get noticed enough for an interview with a company. So, today, I'm here to hopefully give you 3 simple tips that you can do right now to put you one step closer to getting your first internship. As I've only had experience with the Engineering side of internship opportunities, I can only discuss that. I'm not too sure how other majors go through the internship process.

Hello everyone; I hope you're all doing well and are having a wonderful New Year!! One of my top resolutions for 2017 is to be more consistent with blogging because I do love everything about beauty and I want to share all the new products, tips, and tricks with every single one of you. For anyone new, I'm so happy to have you here and thanks so much for joining in on my beauty obsession. Now, onto the actual post. 2016 was a good year filled with so many challenges, especially this past semester at college. That being said, I still found time to discover some amazing products that will stay with me this year. Let's jump right in! Face: bareMinerals Complexion Rescue: This is marketed and described as a BB, CC and tinted moisturizer rolled into one product. I would say that this feels more like a tinted moisturizer than anything else to me. This gives sheer to light coverage and looks extremely smooth and natural on the skin. Having oily skin, this does give me q...
