BTS Beauty Basics: Exactly what to stash in your locker!

 
 

Check these out, too...

  • Beauty Spy: Fresh faced and simple Ann Marie E.
  • Get perfect beach waves without setting foot on the sand
We’ve all been there: You’re running late for school, roll out of bed and have no time to even think about getting presentable. Never fear! We’ve got the ultimate list of products you need this year for an emergency locker stash. A quick swipe of this, a dash of that, and you’re ready to hit first period!

 

Perfect pout

Moisturize your lips in a pinch and add a bit of polish. A little bit of pink lipgloss can go a long way in pulling your look together. 

 

Wet ‘n’ Wild MegaSlicks Lip Gloss in In a Tutu, $2, drugstore.com

 

Eye-mazing

Got two tired peepers? Two quick coats of black mascara will make you look wide-awake and ready to go, even on Monday morning. Groan.

 

Covergirl Last Blast Volume Mascara in Very Black, $7, cvs.com 

 

No sweat

Don’t sweat over an early morning when you are prepared with sweet-smelling deodorant in your locker. Head to the girl’s room to apply, then talk to your crush without fear of smelling stinky. 

 

Dove Ultimate Go Fresh Anti-Perspirant Deodorant in Pomegranate, $5, cvs.com

 

Bad hair day?

Quickly style a no-nonsense pony or topknot, even on your worst hair day. Pull your hair up in a pretty band that also does double-duty as a cute bracelet!
 

Goody Double Wear 2-in-1 Ponytailer bracelets, $6, walgreens.com

 

Well-prepped period

Period caught you by surprise at school? You won’t be worried at all with a stash of portable tampons or pads in your locker.

 

Tampax Compak Pearl, $5, drugstore.com

 

Sweet scent

Need a splash of your fave scent? Grab a travel-size fragrance. It’s tiny enough to stash in your locker, but still provides you with your signature scent on the spot. Score!

 

Philosophy Amazing Grace Fragrance, $15, sephora.com

 

Shine control

Sweaty after gym class? Clean up with some blotting papers to help control the shine. This set boasts lavender oil to soothe stress, too!

 

Sephora Collection Blotting Papers in Lavender, $8, sephora.com 

 

A couple pick-me-ups stored in your locker can brighten your day! So babes, what do you think is a must-have locker beauty product?

1. Think of your crush
2. Make a heart with your hands
3. Kiss your hand heart
4. Put it where the real heart is
5. Your crush will ask you out tomorrow
6. This only works if you post it on your favorite article
