With graduation season approaching, we're thrilled to celebrate all the inspiring graduates ready to take on the world and leap into their next chapter. To help you make the most of your special day, we've compiled a checklist of essential items to bring to your graduation ceremony and cap-and-gown event. These essentials will ensure your day is memorable for all the right reasons.

A Folding Fan

Aside from being the perfect accessory for your outfit, a folding fan will save your graduation day. Between waiting for pictures outdoors or standing backstage for a long time and Cairo's heat waves, a folding fan will make your day easier. Various designs and colours are available on Noon, Jumia, and Amazon, making it easy to match them with your outfit.

Fix Spray

Graduations can last longer than anyone would expect. From rehearsals to the moment you're on stage to waiting for all your friends to be called, worrying about your makeup should definitely not be on your list. Rimmel London Mattifying Finish Fix Spray is our recommendation for your graduation kit. It will make you feel put together and protect your makeup and skin.

Spray-On Sunscreen

Graduation photo shoots typically happen around 3:00 pm, close to when the sun is at its peak. To keep your skin looking fresh and protect yourself from sunburn, make sure a spray-on sunscreen is part of your graduation kit.

Power Bank

Between all the calls, TikToks, and photos you'll be snapping, your phone battery is bound to run low. Don't let a dead battery spoil your fun or prevent you from capturing memories. Keep a power bank handy to stay charged and capture every moment of your special day.
