Tuffy Luv Tells You How to Be More Confident
I’m a college sophomore girl and I seem to have a major problem with boys — I am CLUELESS when it comes to them!

I’m going back to college in the fall and I wanted to re-invent myself, still stay the same but have a total new outlook on life and a new attitude.

It’s time. That moment when you are standing on the beach, or a yacht in Miami if you’re annoying and you have to find a sexy way to take off your maxi dress (which sounds impossible might I add) and debut your healthy and freckle-less skin.

This Post Grad Life: Don’t Lose That Cocky Feelin’
Alright post-grads, future post-grads, and people who think they are post-grads but are really just thirty-years-old and clinging on to their blissful youth.

CC Beauty Live: A Deeper Look
The past few weeks, I’ve been thinking about how all of you watching these videos don’t get to see my flaws because 1) the camera is very deceiving, and 2) I always have makeup on. I am so flattered by your comments, but I feel that you’re getting a one-sided look at me.
Ask A Dude: I’m Too Shy To Flirt
Dear dude, Without sounding conceited, I’m smart, funny, pretty and I’ve got an hourglass figure. My problem is that I’ve got a whole lot of personality and apparently I’m intimidating to guys.

Graduation is fast approaching and soon we college girls will have to swap our flip flops and sweats for pumps and two-piece suits.

What I Learned From My Summer Job
Since I don’t plan on teaching swimming or working with kids in the future, I didn’t anticipate learning anything super important through this job.
