It happens to all of us—midterms roll around and all you can do is pray you’ll survive. Your selfcare goes out the window. You forget to brush your teeth or shower. There’s no time for anything but work.
But you have to take a break. You really do. You have to stop and take care of yourself. It’s time to pamper and rest—and here’s how:
1. StyleWatch
Sit down, take a breather, and read something other than a textbook for a minute. StyleWatch is a brand that is inclusive, positive, supportive and fun. They showcase street style photos from all over the world and celebrate people of all sizes, skin tones, hair types and personal styles. If you’re looking for fashion inspiration, they’re sure to have some choices for you. And at a time when you’re probably wearing the same pair of sweatpants three days in row, you could use a inspiration. Get daily inspiration on Twitter (@StyleWatchMag) and Instagram (@StyleWatchMag)

5. Colgate Optic White Products
As I mentioned, by this time, no doubt, you have forgotten to brush your teeth at least once—maybe twice. And now it’s time to give your pearly whites some TLC. Do so with with the Colgate Optic White Toothbrush plus Whitening Pen—no waiting, no rinsing, no mess, and it starts working in one day! Also try Colgate Optic White Express White toothpaste with hydrogen peroxide for whiter teeth in three days, just by brushing. Go ahead and dazzle without the hassle of whitening strips!
