On April 9th falls one of the most important holidays of the year – National Unicorn Day. Because most of us have never had the privilege of meeting a real life unicorn, this is probably the next best thing. Who wouldn’t want a day to appreciate these magical creatures? Here are four ways to celebrate the day.

Go swimming with a unicorn

How adorable is this inflatable unicorn? Available from ASOS with 10% off, this is the perfect accessory to take to the pool with you and have a fun filled day. Not only will you have an awesome time, but this is so Insta–worthy it hurts.

Bake a unicorn cake

If you’re feeling creative, this unicorn cake is the perfect way to celebrate the big day with your friends. While it may take quite a long time and a bit of effort to make, this is definitely worth it. Not only is it gorgeously decorated, but it’s absolutely delicious too!

Add some unicorn sass to your cosmetics

This unicorn highlighter from I Heart Makeup is to die for! Its pastel rainbow colours are the perfect way to channel your inner mythical creature. You could also paint your nails with Essie’s ‘Unicorn Sparkles’ nail polish, which is an amazing pink and sparkly colour. Both are available from Superdrug.

Make your revision magical

Okay, it’s so not cool that unicorn day just so happens to occur during prime revision time, however, we have found the perfect solution: This unicorn pencil holder from Paperchase is the perfect study buddy. We all need some colour to brighten up this boring task and this definitely takes making your work interesting to another level of awesome.
