Back-to-School Beauty

Eight Tips for Moms and Daughters

The school year is drawing near — send your daughters off with these eight tips in mind to help them look, feel and do great!

Get, Give and Save

Dress for the Weather

Before you send her out the door, check the weather forecast and her school’s dress code to determine what she should be wearing. The school year often starts before summer ends, so make sure your child is dressed appropriately.

Night-Planning Magic

Keep her organized and ready to take on the world. Help prepare her for school by encouraging her to pack her lunch, lay out clothes, style her hair, and bathe at night. Planning ahead will help her feel prepared in the morning and more organized throughout the day.

Wake Up With Makeup

If you are raising a teenage girl, one way to get her to be on time in the morning is to get her excited about what she puts on her face. She can complement her beauty with sheer, natural makeup. Encourage her to start with a good moisturizer followed by a natural foundation such as COVERGIRL® Queen Collection Natural Hue Bronzer. This mineral-enriched formula beautifully matches skin tones from Light Bronze to Ebony Bronze.

Diva on a Dime

Back-to-school shopping doesn’t have to break the bank. Teach your daughter the value of a dollar by encouraging her to find stylish items at discount clothing stores. Whether she’s after jeans or a stylish “Tee,” challenge her to find both for a bargain.

Feel Like a Boss With Lip Gloss

Wearing lip gloss is one of the luxuries of being a young lady. It protects lips and creates a head-turning shine. Your daughter can bring out her girlish appeal with COVERGIRL Wetslicks Amazemint Lipgloss and Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers Lipgloss.

Quick and Easy Black Hairstyles

There are many African-American hairstyles to try out on your little girl. Some styles can work on both mother and daughter. For instance, any style of braid will look good, regardless of one’s age. Braids provide a tangle-free hairstyle that can be worn up in pigtails or down around the shoulders. Braids are low maintenance and easy to keep clean and come in many variations.

Mom and Daughter Hair Care

Beautiful black haircare starts at home. Whether your or your daughter’s hair is kinky, curly, coily or straight, you can nourish your hair and maintain a chic look with a little help from the Pantene® Relaxed & Natural collection. Enriched with conditioning oils, this collection helps give African-American hair a healthy, sleek shine.

Protect Her Black Beauty

Help your daughter maintain her black beauty by keeping her skin looking radiant, healthy and beautiful. Olay® Complete All Day Moisturizer with Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 15 helps prevent premature skin damage with a gentle formula that provides up to eight hours of hydration.
