College Beauty Survival Tips

Oh, college. All those sleepless nights spent cramming for exams, the noisy roommates that keep odd hours, and sharing a hall bathroom with 50 other people. It can be difficult to avoid stress and maintain your beauty regime under those kinds of circumstances, but we’ve got a few tips that can hopefully help to keep you on track. After all, when you feel better, you’ll study better, or at least it’ll make that Econ class seem a little more bearable.

• Late nights lead to tell-tale puffy eyes with dark circles ringing those bloodshot peepers. Our Aqua Eye Masks were made to combat just such symptoms of exhaustion, and the smaller one is perfectly sized to fit in the freezer portion of one of those tiny dorm fridges. Pop it in during that late-night study session, and it’s good to go in the morning.

• Let’s face it, college students aren’t the cleanest bunch. If your hall is beginning to smell more and more like pizza and dirty laundry, try fighting back with the delicious scents of our diffusers. They are small enough to fit on your little bedside table, and scents like Moroccan Rose and Cherry Blossom can help make that cubbyhole of a room smell more like a walk in the park than a locker room.

• Because space is at such a premium in dorm rooms, it’s best to shrink and consolidate as much as possible. But that doesn’t mean you have to give up all of the makeup products that you love. Try our Eye, Lip & Cheek Palette, which has a little bit of all of your favorite makeup products, just in smaller sizes. And it comes neatly packed into a hard case, which snaps shut to protect your goodies from getting smashed by that massive Chem book you’re carrying this semester.

• If you’re like me, you’ve got a skin care regime that has 5, 6, and 7 products involved. Which is fine if you’ve got a bathroom to yourself, but won’t do if you’re forced to try and stuff it all into a shower caddy under your bed. Do yourself a favor by snagging your favorite skincare line in small sizes and a carrying pouch.

College is such a fun and inspiring time in life. Don’t let a tiny, shared room or a gym-like hall bathroom stand in your way of feeling your absolute undergraduate best! Because nothing feels better than a being a student whose got beauty and brains in the bag.
