How To Stay Fabulous During 1L Year: Crunchtime Beauty Tips


How To Stay Fabulous During 1L Year: Crunchtime Beauty Tips

So, you keep hearing that 1L year is perhaps the most stressful time of you law school career. You’re making sacrifices left and right. Missing grandpa’s birthday, Thanksgiving with the family, social events, dates, etc., but why should you have to sacrifice looking good and still doing well in law school? Here are 3 quick and efficient tips that will help you stay in control of your beauty regime so you can still get those A+’s while still looking fab!

Instant Make-up

Moisturize! Moisturize! Moisturize!
You’re dehydrated, exhausted, and most likely sleep-deprived, but your skin doesn’t have to be.

Tip 1: Facial Moisturizer- the secret to glowing skin is what’s underneath.
Lancome makes an excellent night crème which you can lather on the night before to rejuvenate parched skin from all those late night study sesh’s.


Fake it ‘til you make it.
You’ve been up reading all night. Perhaps you hit up Del Taco late last night for a midnight snack to keep you going during your studies.

Tip 2: Apply foundation or better yet, a tinted moisturizer for extra glow and moisture. Keep things minimal- the last thing you want to look like after an all-nighter is cake-faced.
Makeup Forever makes an excellent water-based foundation which not only moisturizes, but evens out skin-tone.



Looking bright-eyed and beautiful.
We’ve all dealt with bags under our eyes from lack of sleep or staring at a computer screen for hours on end. Now, it’s time to make those bags disappear.  

Tip 3: Stick two spoons in the freezer over night. Before applying your eye makeup, take the frozen spoons and apply them under your eyes. The cold from the spoons will help to reduce inflammation and make your eyes seem less puffy. Add mascara with some inner eyeliner and you’re ready to go!


Tip: Revlon makes a great mascara that won’t run and an eyeliner that won’t smear when you’re taking those studying break naps!


Law school can be a hectic time, where sacrifices will need to be made, but beauty doesn’t have to be one of them! Happy studying!
