A Note From Your Editors: These Are a Few Of Our Favorite Things

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Wake Forest chapter.

The end of the semester is quickly appraoching with finals as the only hurdle between you and the holiday festivities that wait in a long overdue break. Of course, you’re starting to think about how to cover up a semester of sleep deprivation and enhance your natural beauty before visiting with family and friends.

To freshen up your complexion in these stressful times, start with 7 Wonders facemasks from Leaders Insolution. “The Caribbean Coconut Calming mask and Kalahari Melon Moisturizing Mask were a much needed treatment to combat my tired and dry skin,” said Betsy Mann.

Next, to beat winter dry skin try some Pure Silk rich and luxurious shave cream with aloe moisture for smooth and soft skin complete with a refreshing raspberry scent. “I have very sensitive skin so I’m always on the lookout for products that make it easier to care for without drying me out. Pure Silk shave cream does just that. My legs are left feeling soft and smooth, and my skin stays hydrated all day– all complete with a fruity burst of raspberry that energizes and delights,” said Kelly Andrew.

For a fun seasonal look, try new Rimmel London Volume Flash Scandal mascara and ultra-smooth eyeliner with Provocalips kiss proof lip colour. Kat Weiber has the scoop on our new faves.

“I am a huge lipstick junkie so I was super excited to see that Rimmel London has come out with a new line of lipsticks called Provocalips. There are some really cool colors in here, and I’m definitely going with “Play with Fire” red for my sorority formal this weekend. The Kohl eyeliner has a smooth glide and is perfect for a dramatic look. I’ll definitely use it again.”

You’re sure to be busy over your winter breaks, collegiettes, but be sure to take time for some R&R, too. Cozy up with a good book and a hot cup of tea to beat the winter chill. Our recommendations?

“For more than 40 years Yogi Tea has strived to produce high quality herb and spice tea ingredients based on delicious flavors. Check out Green Tea Blueberry Slim Life and Sweet Tangerine Positive Energy. With the holidays coming up it is time to stock up on these rich Yogi teas that will leave you feeling full of well-being and delight” said Jackie Hsiao.

As far as books go, the list of ones we want to read but don’t have the time for could go on forever. But the top of our priorities is The Wangs vs. The World. Kat Weiber said, “I’m so looking forward to this nice light read about a dad who is struggling to find his place in the world and his family. I’ll definitely be reading it as soon as I get home!”
