This is the nicest Dexter has been to Ollie since we first brought him home. I think he knows Ollie doesn't feel 100%, either way this melted my heart. #vsco #vscocam #puppy #aussie #yorkie #chihuahua #australianshepherd #naptime #adorable

When was I last really happy? Before I started worrying about making more money and all the things it could buy me. #sundaythoughts

The Far Future of the Universe

It’s natural to wonder what the future has in store for us. While we may not be able to predict what will happen to us tomorrow, science has made some pretty strong predictions about what will happen to the universe in the eons to come.

From the rearrangement of the constellations and meteorite impacts to the evaporation of our oceans and the stars themselves going out, there’s a lot of stuff to (not) look forward to.

Sure, the universe might not have a happy ending, but that just makes today more special, doesn’t it? Plus, BLACK HOLES.

Watch the latest It’s Okay To Be Smart (below) and I’ll tell you all about it!

"I’m trying to repair my relationship with my mom. It fell apart at a young age. I’d say it was 90 percent my fault- give or take 10%. I was always getting in trouble. I started smoking weed at the age of eleven. The final wedge between us came when she stopped getting emotional about my behavior. That’s when the relationship ended. Because even when she was the angriest, there was still a relationship. If someone’s hateful toward you, that still means something."

What are the best drugstore eye primers?

In the past drugstore brands have really lacked on the eye primer front, but now there are many options available and whilst many brands just can’t get their formula’s right, some hit the nail on the head…

ELF Essential Eyelid Primer

If you haven’t heard the raves over the Urban Decay Primer Potion (which some have dubbed the best product in the world) where have you been? This eyelid primer is super popular and in my honest opinion the ELF Essential Eyelid Primer works just as good (if not better) It keeps shadow on all day  makes eyeshadow apply smoother and appear more pigmented.

NYX High Definition Eyeshadow Base

This is another lovely eye primer, I personally still prefer the ELF version, but this one is great at making your shadows appear more vibrant and works well with shadows that have a lot of fallout.

The Milani and Wet N Wild primers are also great quality for the price. Also, I wouldn’t recommend using concealer as an eye primer.

If you have super oily eyelids these won’t work miracles on you, but they will keep your shadow on just a little longer.

I hope I helped you and if you need anything else feel free to ask.

If any product you use irritates you discontinue use immediately.
