*Important Note: Some of these brands may or may not be sold in other countries that require animal testing by law in order for the products to be sold, but I don’t have the time to research animal testing laws outside the US as well as what brands sell in those countries. So I’m leaving this one up to you.
Okay, this has been in my drafts for at least 3 months now. Time to roll it out! Keep in mind, these are videos/bloggers that helped me specifically and there may be some videos/links that aren’t as useful to you. That’s okay! I recommend you get lost in the beauty blogger side of youtube at some point, it’s a lot of fun and you never know what you’ll find!
And on a last note of disclaimer: I don’t follow the personal lives/twitter feed/rumors about anyone in these videos. I don’t know if someone is problematic or not, I am simply recommending the video.
wonderful resource for nonbinary/trans people who have a desire to wear makeup, but were never taught because of gross gender roles

Hey there, do you know what vid it is where the boys are doing those circus like stunts? With the ropes in the air? I think it was with Vevo.
This one, I think!
You’re a Glimpse of Bliss (A Little Taste of Heaven)
Ashton isn’t a superhero. He’s just a typical geek who works in a comic book store and spends way too much time straightening his hair every morning, but not enough time thinking about what he wants to do with his life after finishing high school, because he assumes that he has no future.
Luke isn’t a superhero, either. He’s just a boy with too many problems and not enough solutions, so he spends his days reading comic books, because the Marvel universe is a great distraction from the universe within his own mind.
Neither of them are looking to be saved, but somehow they find salvation within each other.
Just go here and sign up with your college email. You can install it on up to 5 PCs or Macs and on other mobile devices, including Windows tablets and iPads.

This website literally GRADES YOUR ESSAYS. You can choose your grade level, if you’re using American or British english, what type of paper it is (essay, short story, biography…), and it even checks for plagiarism. THEN once it’s grading your essay, it shows you grammatical errors, suggestions for better sentence structure, and a lot of other things. Reblog to save a life.
