HOT:
E.L.F. Cosmetics: The E.L.F. actually stands for Eyes, Lips and Face and is one of the hottest up and coming product lines. A fairly new company, this cosmetic website is chock full of the newest color palettes for a fraction of what you'd spend on department store makeup.
Every single item on the website is only $1, allowing you to stock up on all of fall's necessities without breaking the bank. The company also has pre-made color palettes as well as create-your-own so that you can keep a few on hand for different occasions. Need to go from night class to a night out? E.L.F. offers sleek compacts and bags to store all of your new beauty booty.
The site is constantly updating its content list and has been featured in magazines such as InStyle, Lucky, and Allure. With big names like those, this brand is definitely worth a shot. Visit www.eyeslipsface.com for more information.
Spa Week: For those of you who thought Restaurant Week was fabulous, I have something even better. Spa Week, a nationwide event popular in Philly, New York, New Jersey, and D.C. takes place, October 15 - 19. Don't miss out on the opportunity to be pampered in some of the most luxe salons and spas in the tri-state area for as little as $50. Sponsored by Allure magazine, this week is as fabulously feminine as it can get.
Seeing as fall break conveniently coincides with part of this glorious week, splurge and treat yourself before midterms and feel the stress and anxiety wash away with a delicious seaweed wrap or a relaxing massage.

NOT:
Midterms: It seems like everyone I know is going crazy because of midterms and mid-semester projects that are being thrown our way. Already my friends are in a tizzy trying to study for four tests or trying to complete two papers as our professors so kindly cram everything in right before fall break.
