How To Look Like A Million Bucks Without Breaking The Bank

Lets face it, as a college student your go to outfit is probably a pair of old jeans, your school sweatshirt and whatever shoes you can throw on before heading off to class.  And if you wake up in time to do your makeup, your face is possibly riddled with zits after all that late night microwavable mac n’ cheese. But just because we are broke college students doesn’t mean we should look like one too! Here are ten ways to look like a million bucks without breaking the bank.

1. Treat Yo’self to a hydrating face mask!

Let your midterm anxieties slip away with a hydrating face mask! Not only are there millions of homemade remedies made from items you can find at your local supermarket, but your skin will look shiny and new.

2. Look like a golden goddess by highlighting!

Follow the wise words of Lizzie McGuire and “shine like the light from the sun” with some sick looking highlights. Apply highlight on you cheek bones, chin, forehead and the inner corners of your eyes to look like you bathed in gold.

 

3. Get rid of your frizzy hair.

Do you see any of the Kardashian/Jenners walking around with frizzy hair? NO! Make your own hair mask to keep frizz under control and walk around with your shiny, sleek hair like a BOSS.

4. Going out? Stick to basics

Sunglasses can make or break your outfit game. Find yourself the perfect pair of shades, and look like the boss ass bitch you are!
