[Updated] Exam days...YUCK

Hello, fellow students! 
My finals don't come till the end of June but since it's finals season in parts of the world, I thought I'd share my updated exam season makeup routine. I did one half a year ago, but that routine has changed quite a bit since then.
My friend once asked me why I took the time to put on my makeup if I was already sleep deprived and busy with studying. The reason is simple, it's the same reason as to why I wouldn't wear sweats to class/exams. Because if you look put together, you'll feel put together. Mind tricks. Works (almost) every time. (I say almost because don't try pulling two all nighters in a row....the results aren't pretty)

Things I Actually Used in My Travel Makeup Bag...

USA Beauty Haul (Ulta & Sephora)

So I was a bit more reserved at Ulta/Sephora compared to the drugstore but I think it's safe to say that the dent wasn't any smaller. I actually had to go back to both Ulta and Sephora to return items because I just couldn't justify spending so much money for things I wasn't sure I'd like...
