Michaela, a junior at the College of Charleston: Bobbi Brown Extreme Party Mascara ($25 at Sephora)
“I may not wear much makeup, but when I do, this is it! It’s just enough to make my eyes huge without anything else. It’s perfect.”
Maddy, a junior at New York University: Clinique Moisture Surge CC Cream ($37 at Sephora)
“It’s moisturizing and looks very natural!”
Amanda, a junior at Middlebury College: Urban Decay Naked Palette ($54 at Sephora)
I love this palette because it is the first makeup I have been able to apply! It symbolizes a large step into womanhood, since I’m sort of a tom boy! My favorite shades are Half Baked, Smog, Gunmetal, Creep, and Sin.”
Kerry, a senior at Bryant University: Maybelline Great Lash Mascara ($3.97 at Walmart)
“It never clumps, lengthens lashes and [the Soft Black color] doesn’t look too dark with blonde hair.”
Haley, a senior at the University of Rhode Island: Vichy Dermablend Fluid Corrective Concealer ($27.41 at Feel Unique)
“It’s water-based so I never break out from it and I only use it to even out my skin tone. I get it every Christmas and it lasts me all year!”
