For the campus years · The Campus Years
These are the years to try everything once and keep what feels like you.
Lectures, late nights, first interviews, festival weekends: the campus years ask one makeup bag to do everything. This is the age of play, first lashes, a gloss for every mood, glitter with no apology, built on a fast five-minute base.
Tip 1 of 4 · The Campus Years

Tip 2 of 4 · The Campus Years

Start lashes with faux mink: the curl is pre-set, they forgive clumsy glue days, and one pair survives a month of weekends.

Keep two: one clear for the library, one fruit-tinted for everything after. Layer over balm so late nights never read on your lips.
Tip 4 of 4 · The Campus Years
