Finally!
This is probably the best word to describe the conclusion of every graduate’s school life.
After years of burning the midnight oil, all your hard work has finally paid off.
You’re finally earning that degree and getting that sweet diploma.
But still, one final question remains. . .
“How should I style myself on Graduation day?”
Imagine looking fabulous as you walk on stage.
And smile for the cameras.
Well, we’ve got you covered.
Here are 4 essential beauty tips to help you get ready for graduation:
1. Dress in breathable fabrics
Let’s be real.
Graduation ceremonies take hours and can potentially be toasty.
Not to mention you’ll also be wearing another layer— your toga!
For your graduation outfit, choose something that balances style and comfort.
Opt for breathable fabrics like cotton or linen.
So you can balance out the heaviness of your toga.
2. Wear comfortable shoes
Graduation ceremonies often involve a lot of standing.
This can lead to tired and achy feet.
Especially with the wrong kind of footwear.
If you’re the type of person who prefers heels
Here are 3 things you can consider:
- Size of the heel block
The size of the heel block determines the stability of your steps.
So the thicker the heel block, the more stable it is for you to walk in.
- Arch of the shoe
Make sure the heels you choose mould perfectly to the arches of your feet.
When you have proper arch support, your weight is distributed evenly.
So other parts of your feet–like your ankle or toes– don’t have to strain.
- The counter of the shoe
The counter refers to the back portion of the shoe right where your heel rests.
This is the tricky area where you would usually get cuts and blisters.
To pick out the right shoe, the counter should be perfectly snug to your heel.
If you prefer flats, here are also some styles you can consider:
Ballerina flats
D’Orsay flats
Mary Jane flats
Bonus Tip:
To get rid of the stiffness of brand-new shoes, “break in” your chosen pair days before your Graduation ceremony.
Walk around in them for a few hours while wearing thick socks.
This will soften the material and make it more comfortable to wear.
Remember, you want to radiate confidence, not limp across the stage!
3. Style your hair with your cap in mind
Choose a hairstyle that goes well with your graduation cap.
The top of your head may be covered during the ceremony
But that doesn’t mean you can’t flaunt the rest of your length.
If you’re looking for some inspo, here are some examples:
If you’re wondering how to style your hair like these flawless-looking inspos, try considering a hair iron that guarantees the same flawless effect.

4. Look Photogenic with Picture-ready Makeup
Graduation photos are forever.
They’ll be in your photo albums or framed on the house wall.
So choose a makeup style that translates well in photos.
- Skip the heavy foundation
A heavy layer can cause your makeup to look cakey and patchy.
So opt for a light, natural base with a bit of concealer and blush.
- Waterproof mascara is a must
You won’t know until it hits you, but it can be a tear-filled day.
You definitely don’t wanna look like a wet raccoon. The horror!
So make sure to apply a coat of waterproof mascara.
- Top it all off with a reliable setting spray
The key to having a polished makeup look is a good spetting spray.
A few spritzes are enough to lock in your final makeup look and make it last the whole day.
