After 15 weeks of exams, projects, laughs, assignments, campus traditions and nights with friends, the semester is coming to a close… but not before we get through finals week. Forget about your high-maintenance beauty routine during this stressful week and get through finals week with these summer essentials. Follow these steps to reduce the stress of finals week:
1. Get Hair Goals without the Effort
With early morning exams, no one has time for shampooing, conditioning, drying and styling. There are plenty of products to help you get the perfect locks without sacrificing precious sleep and study time. After a quick morning shower, use Bedhead by TIGI Beach Freak Moisturizing Detangler Spray to soften and moisturize dry and damaged hair. After getting rid of the tangles, finish up with Bedhead by TIGI Beach Me Wave Defining Gel Mist to build the perfect curls and control frizz. If you don’t have time for a full shower, try Bedhead by TIGI Oh Be Hive Dry Shampoo to absorb oils from your hair to give you the perfect second day hair look.
Bed Head by TIGI is offering Her Campus readers $5 off any qualifying $20 TIGI purchase on Ulta.com with coupon code TIGIFIVE.
