As the new semester is about to start, I thought it’d be fitting to talk about some health and beauty essentials. These are a few new things that I’ve tried out recently. From healthy snacks to sleeping masks, these are a few products that will stick with me throughout the school year. If you’re interested in learning about some new health and beauty products, then just keep reading.
1. Healthy Snacks
As students, we’re always on the go. It’s an essential to have a protein bar or some sort of snack to throw in your bag and have with you at all times. These Garden of Life protein bars are perfect because they’re made with simple ingredients and they’re high in protein, so they’ll keep you full for longer.
2. A backpack or tote bag
When the new school year comes around, I’m always on the hunt for a good, reliable backpack. This High Sierra backpack is perfect because it’s sturdy and it has multiple pockets for things like a laptop, water bottle, and books.
3. Body lotion & Skincare
As someone who suffers with dry skin, a good body lotion is always in my bag. I’ve been a fan of the brand Bliss for a while now, so I was really excited to try out this Lemon & Sage body butter. The scent is subtle and it’s truly great for dry skin. School can get stressful, and it’s really important to make sure you’re taking care of your skin.
4. A good night’s rest
A sleeping mask is a great option to get a good night’s rest. Our weeks are filled with lots of homework assignments and early classes, and so sleep is crucial. This mask from HerCampus is great because it’s made with 100% silk. (Pro tip: Sleep on a silk pillowcase! It’s so much better for your skin than cotton).
5. Fun makeup products
I’m someone who always has a few beauty products in their bag, and I love to try out new products. The new Almay Goddess Gloss is a high-shine gloss that gives your lips that iridescent appearance. I love to throw these on top of a lipstick to add a pop of shine.

Such a cute campus kit! A good night’s rest during the semester is always a must have for college! I didn’t get enough of them when I was in school 🙁
