Valentino Rosso Mini Lipstick in Ethereal Red
I’m in love with blue-based red lipstick, and this satin finish is lightweight, highly pigmented and delivers vivid color payoff from the first swipe. It also lasts an impressively long time.

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray Travel Size
You’ll never have a makeup meltdown again with this mini setting spray in your stash. The award-winning formula has a patented technology that actually lowers the temperature of your makeup to keep it looking smooth and locked in place for up to 16 hours — from the early morning until long after the last school bell rings. You can spritz it on in the middle of the day when your skin is in need of a refresh, too.

Urban Decay Naked3 Mini Eyeshadow Palette
For last minute eye makeup application or a quick touch up, a mini eyeshadow palette is key. This pick from Urban Decay comes with six neutral shades in both matte and sparkly finishes so you can put together a seamless look in seconds. Pro tip: use the dark brown shade as a liner or dot it across your cheeks for faux freckles. Or, use the shimmery champagne color to spotlight your eyes, brows and cheeks.

In addition to keeping some touch-up products in your school bag, having a mini fragrance on hand is always a good idea 一 a post-gym class application never hurts. Spice up your fall scent this season with this pick. It’s fresh and fall-appropriate, rather than heavy or overly sweet 一 making it perfect for school.
