College students generally have to tighten the belt on their budgets, cut out excess purchases, and focus on their studies. However, it’s still possible to prioritize beauty and skin care while earning your degree.

You’ll need to modify your purchasing and daily upkeep behavior, but you’ll soon hit your stride. Here are three ways to manage your skin-care regimen even as you grapple with the cost of college tuition.

Everyday ingredients

You can make some of your own skin-care products using simple ingredients from the grocery store. Instead of splurging on an expensive facial at the spa, invest in avocado, cucumber, yogurt, and other natural ingredients.

You can recreate the facial experience at home with some relaxing music and a few basic items. You don’t need to spend a ton of money to take care of the basics.

Natural ingredients can also be used to create your own exfoliants and cleansers. Don’t be afraid to get creative with these inexpensive tools.

Regular upkeep

Budget-conscious students have to learn how to maximize the effectiveness of their health and beauty products.

Healthy skin relies on continual upkeep. If you forget to cleanse your face for a few days, then you’ll need to deal with the potential after-effects of oil buildup and acne.

Get into the habit of using your skin-care products on a regular basis, so you’ll achieve and maintain a certain level of cleanliness. Your products will lose their effectiveness if you use them only once in a while.

On the other hand, you don’t want to take it to the far in the other direction with overuse. Drying out your skin by using cleansers and toners too often can cause problems too, plus you’ll need to replenish your supplies more often.

Refer to the instructions on your skin-care products to see what the ideal level of use should be.

All-natural products

You might notice that natural products are far more effective at treating blemishes and oily skin then cheap chemical-based items. Even if the up-front costs of natural beauty products are higher, these purchases can be worth it in the long run, because they can resolve your skin issues more quickly.

Test different natural products and avoid the cheapest offerings on the shelf, since they may do more harm than good.

Maintaining a balanced daily skin-care regimen can pretty challenging when you’re a college student. Making quality product purchases, creating your own beauty products, and committing to regular upkeep can save you time and money.

Here’s to healthy skin throughout your academic career!

Life at college is an exciting, fast-paced environment where priorities can turn upside down at a moment’s notice. Students deal with the pressures of assignment due dates and exams as well as challenges in lifestyle, from cramped quarters to eating on the run.

All these activities can cause you higher levels of stress, making it more likely for you to experience skin problems while you knock skin care down or off the to-do list.

To avoid ignoring the largest organ system in your body, you should attend to some basic skin care practices that every college student can incorporate into daily life. They’ll provide a foundation for beginning or maintaining healthy skin.

The way you treat your skin now will have a major effect on how it may look years down the road.

Daily skin care for coed on the go

The best skin care routines are simple. Follow common-sense practices that will keep your skin in good shape. These are quick, easy solutions that will help you looking fresh even life is a constant mad dash.

Study these suggestions that professionals and beauty experts recommend and see if you can’t incorporate them into your hectic college schedule:

• Do drink water. Water hydrates the body from the inside out, and promotes more rapid skin cell turnover for healthier skin. Hint: Pick up a refillable water bottle and keep it with you during the day for quick sips during lectures and around campus.

• Do give your face a fresh start each day by washing your skin to create a smooth canvas for moisturizers to sink in and makeup to look great. In the evenings, wash that makeup off so it doesn’t settle into your skin and create areas where bacteria can cause problems. Hint: If you’re pressed for time, use one of the many facial wipes on the market for a convenient, quick way to clean your face.

• Do use products that are good for your skin. Whether self-tanners, skin lighteners, or acne creams, choose ones have some form of sun protection and are gentle on the skin. Hint: Try products that use natural ingredients that won’t clog pores.

• Do avoid excessive alcohol use and cigarettes. Both can dry out your skin and age it much faster with repeated use. Hint: Avoid environments with second-hand smoke.

• Do use a carry-all or caddy to store your toiletries and makeup. College dorm rooms and apartments can be cramped for space and portable containers offer storage and flexibility. For smaller items, such as lip balms or spot treatments, keep a small makeup bag that fits in your backpack or purse. Hint: Keep your products in a hanging makeup bag that can be easily folded and packed in a moment’s notice.

• Do clean your cell phone; yes, your cell phone! Held up against your skin repeatedly and for long periods, it may spread bacteria and dirt that will cause breakouts. Wipe down your favorite communicator daily to lessen the odds of blemishes. Hint: Use an earpiece to avoid direct contact between the phone and your skin.

There’s no need to let the demands of college life interfere with a daily skin care routine. By following these practical approaches, you’ll enjoy the benefits of healthier skin now and in the years to come.

A photo of one of the girls at the center of the Secret Service hooker scandal named Tania has been leaked by the New York Daily News. Apparently she charges up to $800 for her escort services. The Colombian prostitute/mother of a 9 year old, got upset when one of the bodyguards only paid her $30. She along with approximately 20 other hookers may be responsible for the dismissal of up to 11 Secret Service agents and 9 military servicemen. On the bright side of this whole scandal, at least she has a nice rack. The only thing more demeaning for the Secret Service would have been another ugly broad getting mixed up into a political scandal. I’m looking at you Monica Lewinsky.

Photo’s of Rihanna on the cover of Elle Magazine have leaked. Of course we wanted to keep you in the loop, so we put together a photo gallery of the best pictures one can find by surfing the internet. Included are some new pics from the May edition of Elle Magazine where she opens up about her breakup with Chris Brown, backlash from the media, potential of having kids… blah blah blah. What you’re really interested in are these photos of Rihanna in her most kinkiest positions. After all, we know whips and chains excite her just like this gallery will excite you. Enjoy!

Spring is now underway which means warm weather, sundresses, and yes spring break. In honor of the first day of spring, we wanted to celebrate by showing you a gallery of 15 sexy women in the grass looking pretty. It’s ok to rock out to some Guns and Roses while viewing these attractive girls. Enjoy Paradise City and the start of spring.

Is it just me or do Victoria’s Secret Angels just get hotter and hotter? The current class might be the hottest in recent memory, featuring Candice Swanepol, Alessandra Ambrosio, Erin Heatherton, and Lily Alridge. They’ve all been on our site before, but here’s their newest photo shoot from everyone’s favorite bedroom gear company. Keep doing what you’re doing Victoria. 

Tuesdays after 3-day weekends might as well be Monday. In other words, I’d rather be home nursing a hangover than sitting in an office. The great thing about this Tuesday however is it’s Fat Tuesday, maybe the greatest Tuesday of the year since it’s the official start of Mardi Gras. And we all know what that means.

Mardi Gras is infamous for being the only festival that turns nice girls with high morals into exhibitionist maniacs. Out here in New York, things don’t get as crazy as in New Orleans, so we’re going to help you celebrate vicariously with all the Mardi Gras Hotness you can handle. Hope you brought your beads.

We thought we had seen and done everything Kate Upton, but alas, we were wrong. Turns out that no one ever gets sick of this blonde bombshell, least of all her twin “talents.” You’ll see what I mean.

Most know her as that hot girl from the NBC television show Chuck. You would most certainly be correct as Yvonne Strahovski is pretty much the only reason that show has stayed on the air for 5 seasons.  Strahovski also starred in the movie Killer Elite and most recently became the spokeswoman for Sobe Lifewater. I’ve never had Sobe but I’m now willing to invest.

We never wanted to agknowlege the existence of anyone low enough on the totem pole to star in Chuck, but now that we have a reason, we’re here to honor Yvonne with this 12-pic, uber hot gallery. Hopefully Sobe and Yvonne have a bright future together. We’ll look out for the ads.

It hasn’t even been 24 hours since the news anyone with fully-functional male genitalia could have predicted. Kate Upton is officially the cover girl on this year’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, and considering the fact that every picture this girl takes ends up on 10 blogs within an hour (case in point), who better?

The internet has been exploding with Kate Upton madness. Image leaks, normal images, and of course, video, which brings us to today’s subject. This behind the scenes clip may not be very long, but if you put it on loop, I would be just as satisfied. Kate Upton, we salute you once again. Socialites, you’re welcome.
