Hey collegiettes, it’s semi-formal season! If you’re anything like us, the craziness of midterms has left you with zero time to plan for semi. It’s the week before, and you have no clue how you are going to do your hair or makeup. You have a zillion questions, but don’t worry! We have your guide to semi season straight from Her Campus College Fashion Week J

 

So, pop open a can of Spindrift Sparkling Water and get reading!

 

 

Bed Head?

We all have those days when our hair just doesn’t want to cooperate! Bed Head has you covered with the essentials to get your hair looking like perfection. Want to wear it straight? Bed Head has the CUTEST ½’’ electric green straightener. Feeling more wild with some curls? Try one of their newest products, Curlipops styling iron. They even offer miniature size versions of their hairsprays, so you can tame those flyaways on the go!

Waiting For Nails to Dry?

Impatience can get the best of you! Her Campus loves to fill those gaps in your day – like when your nails are drying – to inspire you. We are obsessed with Power Your Happy by Lisa Sugar, the founder of POPSUGAR! She empowers the next generation in her book to chase after what makes them the happiest, and who doesn’t love that?

Makeup Not Right?

Semi is the perfect time to go all out with your makeup! Once you finish up your makeup routine, we suggest applying the Glitter Eye Topcoat from Ulta Beauty. It goes on top of your regular eye shadow, and it creates a fun look perfect for semi!

Missing Something?

One of the most current trends include making sure your eyebrows are in tip-top shape. It Cosmetics offers a Universal Eyebrow Pencil which blends into every haircolor!

We hope you enjoyed our little secrets straight from the runway! Our team sends all our HC love as we wish you a fun and safe semi-formal season!
