HerCampus ISU Staff Picks: Best Drug Store Makeup

4/8/2013

Megan Lawler: Maybelline’s Great Lash Original Mascara

I’ve been using this mascara since I first started wearing makeup in high school and have sworn by it ever since. I’ve tried other drug store brand mascaras and have been nothing but disappointed. This Maybelline Great Last Original Mascara mascara comes in shades ranging from browns, blacks, and even clear. It helps your lashes look thick and full while making your eyes really pop. I recommend this mascara to all my friends and at a price of around $6.00, I would consider it a steal.

Katie O’Rourke: Maybelline’s Great Lash Lots of Lashes.

Just like Megan, I love Maybelline's mascara line, as well! Fun fact: One Great Lash mascara is sold every 1.7 seconds. This product is one I cannot live without. Their new and improved wand reaches hard to get lashes and it adds tremendous length! Great Lash is also known to be “America’s Favorite Mascara.”  As college women, we have to survive on a budget so the low price of only $5 is perfect!

Zach Billings '14

I think the person who coined the saying, “When they smile, the room lights up” must have been talking about our most recent Campus Cutie, Zach Billings. I have a hard time just looking at the pictures of him in this article without breaking into a smile myself. Not only does this ISU junior have an infectious smile, but he has an infectious personality, as well. From his cool demeanor to his playful attitude, I actually wonder how this guy has managed to stay single. He’s a lover of sushi and Sour Patch kids and plans on working with an environmental protection agency when he gets older. So catch him while you can ladies, because if you girls know what’s good for you – this newest Campus Cutie won’t be single for long!

Bro-Spective: Being Cool Downtown by Bill Conrad

1/30/2013

 

Here is the first edition of HerCampus ISU's new "Bro-Spective" blog, a blog for girls and guys written by some of our favorite men at ISU! This first one is your very own how-to guide to fitting in with the cool kids downtown, written by the infamous Campus Cutie Bill Conrad. Enjoy!

What follows in the rest of this article are some basic tips something I know all too well about:  how to be hip and fit in with the cool kid’s downtown.  What are my credentials you may ask?  Well let me tell you:  I once danced with an actual girl downtown. I’ve also been called a connoisseur of fine plastic-bottled vodkas. And on top of that I’m 6’3” male with a V-neck to crew shirt ratio that is off the charts. So all in all I could pretty much write a book about this stuff.

Johnny Bergman '13

 He’s cute. He’s can sing. He’s got a mega-watt smile. AND he’s a Special Education major. Girls, if you aren’t swooning by now then I don’t know what to do. With all those qualities and more, it’s almost as if Senior Johnny Bergman was made to be a Campus Cutie. Last week, Johnny and I sat down for our interview with a cup of coffee at The Coffee Hound in Uptown Normal. The minute he started talking I felt like I had known this guy forever. He's a jokster with an infectious personality and a heart of gold, and the best part ladies? He’s single. So without further ado, the first Campus Cutie of 2013…
