school year prep

Everybody wants to impress people when they come back to school. Look at my great tan! Look at my awesome new hair cut! With my easy to-do you don't need a trip to the beach or salon, you'll just look great.

Tip No. 1- Nails

Okay, I can just feel all those not-so-girly girls rolling their eyes. Many people choose to not paint their nails and many people do, but what you choose is what what counts. Either way, you have no excuse to have badly kept nails. Any easy way to keep your nails healthy is to buy a mini manicure bag, that you could slip in your backpack or keep in your bathroom.

I have this one: Image Maker





It has all the basics and it has a nice waterproof case, I found mine in a shop in downtown Hanover, I tried to find it online but nothing looked right, sorry.







Tip No. 2- Skin

Summer can be a good or bad time of year for your skin. The summer heat can make your skin oily and applying sunscreen (please apply, anyway) can fill your pores.

I like this scrub, it has no acids, and helps take away all the sunscreen in your pores.


St. Ives Pore Clearing  Scrub, $3.00-$5.00 at drugstores




Trick: to minimize blemishes pull your hair back in a ponytail or put on an elastic headband when you go to bed, it helps keep hair out of your face.









Tip No. 3- Taming the beast (a.k.a hair)

Hair can become dry and practically un-manageable from the summer heat, easy solution? Moisture, that also repairs split ends. I got this in my Easter basket (is somebody try trying to tell me something?), and the best part is you can apply it to your hair dry, and helps you style your hair. Need a high ponytail without fly-ways? Check!

Neutrogena Triple Moisture,  $7.00 dollars at drugstores




Try out some new hair styles as well, like a higher pony or a fish net braid!











Get ready for school now, dahlings. By school everyone will be like, "wow, {insert name here} you look amazing!"
