Hello everyone...
Today I thought that I would go through a few back to school essentials that I think everyone should have with them on a normal day at school...
First on my list would be a scented hand sanitiser. I think that this is an absolute essential for being at school, not only is there gun everywhere under the tables and on the banisters, but the soap in the loos are never refreshing and it is the not the most hygienic of places so I think this is always a better idea having nothing.! Also it helps you to smell nicer and fresher in an environment where almost everything kind of smells like school dinners and feet... The brand I would definitely reccomed for
these would be body shop, the bottles are so cute and tiny so are easy to carry around in your bag or blazer. My favourite scents are the mango, strawberry and grapefruit and they are all very fragrant and I can always feel clean and refreshed after I use this at school.
Secondly, if you have oily skin I would take a small powder and lidded face brush with you so that you can store it easily and can touch up during the day instead of your face looking a shiny mess by the end of the day and it may also stop all of you makeup from coming off especially if you have sport that day. If you don't have oily skin and don't use a powder you may want a mini concealer to take with you like the collection lasting perfection concealer to touch up on any blemishes or brighten up your eyes at school. Obviously if you are not allowed makeup at your school do not wear anything that is going to get you into trouble and please never wear makeup if you don't need it or feel like you have to because all of your friends are. The later you start wearing makeup the better, it is far healthier for your skin to keep your pores unclogged and product free for as long as you can. However, if you are conscious of your skin, please never feel like you have to hide yourself away, but instead you can use light makeup to conceal certain inperfections and enhance your beauty, maybe start with a tinted moisturiser or a BB cream.
This follows on to my next item which is a clear mascara, I use the Little Mix one which I bought from my local Superdrug and I would completely recommend this as it is very lengthening and so much more natural than a black mascara, which could look very wrong at the end of the day and it makes it far less obvious to your teachers or your parents that you are wearing makeup. This is also very good for those of you who are just starting out with wearing makeup, as it is very subtle and just opens up your eyes a little bit which is great if you just want a bit of a pick-me-up for your face.
Another thing you might want to keep with you in school is a must for me, being a mini body spray that you can store in your pocket. Having something like this with you is so handy in instances like after P.E or at the end of the day when you need a quick spritz. I use both the mini Charlie and Impulse body spray sets, these usually come in boxes of four and an essential for me to have with me on a school day.
Also, I would definitely say that a hydrating lip balm is a really good product to have with you around school to avoid having dry, cracked or chapped lips during the winter and to also improve the way you look and outwardly feel as I always find that having hydrated and smooth lips at school can make a big difference in how you may be feeling especially in the winter when it is fairly dark and miserable anyway! The balms I have been using recently are the Burts Bees stick and the Carmex balm both which make my lips feel plumped and hydrated and also make a huge difference to how I look at school.
Finally something I like for school is very personal to you and depends what you can get away with at school but I either like to keep a pack of Extra gum with me or a tube or mint flavoured Mento sweets because after lunch you may want a quick refresh for your whole mouth and help your breath to smell nicer towards the end of the day. If you are not allowed these at your school, you do not have to use them but you may just want to have a quick one after you have finished your lunch to keep your mouth refreshed.
I hope this has helped some of you who have recently started school or maybe just needed some new products to help you get through the day the way you want to.
Have a great week everyone xxxx
