If I was better prepared this would be a cute printable, but… it’s a school day.

14 Must-Have Beauty Supplies for Homeschool Moms
1. Coffee
Drink it, or I.V. drip it, or bathe in it. Whatever. Just get some.
2. Hairbrush
For the toddler to brush the dog while you’re teaching algebra, to flail threateningly through the air when frustrated, or to use as a paper weight.
You most likely won’t use it as it was intended though: embrace messy buns.
3. Eyeliner
For the kindergartener to use in place of her missing precious black crayon.
4. Mascara
To use to draw on a mustache on your son when he dresses as Teddy Roosevelt for his history class.
5. Perfume
To spritz on the dog (and possibly the teenage son) right before the pastor’s wife comes over for tea.
6. Yoga pants
Of course.
7. Cheerful, goofy socks and/or slippers
Because who can be irritated when there are llamas on your feet?
8. Hats
For the days when your messy bun makes you look less like a bohemian inspired lady than it does a homeless elderly woman who lives under a bridge.
BTW this is actually a real hat.
9. Lipstick
For leaving embarrassing lip prints on your preteen’s cheeks right before they go on an outing.
10. Hair rubberbands, bobby pins, banana clips, and scrunchies
You’ll buy 2847362.483 but only be able to find two.
11. A purse like Mary Poppins
One that can hold several G.I. Joes, a couple My Little Ponies, keys, snacks, juice boxes, art supplies, a dog eared paperback, loose change, and that hairbrush you’ll never use.
12. Nail polish collection
For those days when everything is going wrong in the math book, and you just decide to bail on it and have a little Mommy/Daughter Pedi Day instead.
13. Nail polish remover
Because Mommy let Daughter do the pedi’s.
14. Lotion
For Baby to find and smear all over Creation when you’re distracted with big brother’s science project.
