Beauty on a Budget

> Rimmel Fix and Perfect Pro Primer 002

Lauren Kelly
Assistant Editor

 

On the years, I’ve had
trouble finding primers that

work for my skin—particularly
due to the fact that I have
problems with my T-zone in
terms of oiliness and pores.
Although I have some mid-range
primers that I like, the price tags
often range from $25-40 and for
the amount of product, it’s hard
for me to use those for all-over,
everyday wear since I'd have to
repurchase quite often. Because
of this, | always keep Rimmel’s
Fix and Perfect primer on hand.
The product is a white
cream, and almost feels more
like a moisturizer than a primer
when you put it on. It claims to
bea five-in-one that smooths,
resurfaces, brightens, mattifies,
and protects. I have some
problems with oiliness, and
while it does help mattify, I still
do experience some shininess
later into the day. However, this
is nearly unavoidable for me,
and it’s not near as bad as it is
without primer. Besides that

small caveat, I have had no issues
with the product. It makes my
skin very soft and smooth, and
my foundation lasts longer and
looks more even when I use it.

Although higher-end
primers have helped more with
mattifying, none have made
my skin feel as good as this one
does. In this sense, I prefer it to
heavily silicone-based primers,
especially as an all-over choice. |
also find that it does help make
my pores less noticeable, which
is a must for me with any primer.

Although I’ve yet to try it, I
will be looking to get Rimmel’s
Fix and Perfect oo1 Primer, as
it claims to focus on oiliness
and pores. However, I find my
primers that only focus on that
don’t feel as nice as this does, and
since that’s an isolated problem
lll continue using this for the
majority of my face even if Ido
like the other as well. Still, the
001 also has great reviews, so if
you suffer from these problems
it’s worth looking into.

The fact that this primer
costs less than half as much as
some of my others makes it a

much more viable product to
repurchase, especially with
how well it works. It is available
at London Drugs for $10.99,
and Wal-Mart for $9.98.

Leigh Anne Arthur and the evolution of privacy laws

> What you should be aware of

Brittney MacDonald
Life and Style Editor

 

or those of you unfamiliar

with the recent incident
regarding Leigh Anne Arthur,
a South Carolina high school
teacher, I’ll summarize the
events quickly. Arthur was
teaching a class when she
stepped out of the room for a
moment. In her absence, one
of her students went to her
desk and began going through
her cell phone. Apparently, the
student found a compromising
photo that Arthur had taken
for her husband, and then he
sent it to himself and posted it
on social media. After Arthur
returned, the student is quoted
as saying “.-your day of reckoning
is coming.” Shortly after this,
Arthur was forced to resign by
the school superintendent.

Normally, we would

expect that this story would
end here—I mean, let’s be
honest, the education system
doesn’t really have the best

track record when it comes to
treating its teachers well.
However, recent changes in
privacy laws for both the United
States and Canada have sought to
end this type of victim blaming.
With cell phones quickly
becoming a staple in almost
everyone's everyday life, and
the recent recognition for
various online crimes such
as cyberbullying and identity
theft, the government thought
it prudent to offer some sort of
protection regarding the personal
details available on your phone.
By law, any information or
content accessed on your phone
without your permission now
counts as an invasion of privacy
and is, by definition, illegal. This
is also a good thing to keep in
mind for you. If you do not have
express permission from the
mobile device’s owner to access
it, no matter if it is password
protected or not, you can be
brought up on felony charges, as
well as putting yourself at risk
of being sued by the device's
