Back to School: Essentials

Back to school is such an exciting time. Yes, I know when the school year has properly kicked into gear it's not so much fun but the preparation for it is so much fun. I decided to write this post in dedication to helping you guys make sure you are prepared for the back to school season and to share my top essentials with you all. Enjoy! 

Starting off with beauty essentials for back to school (you know, the kind of things I would recommend carrying with you). These are just the basic items that I like to carry with me at school because you never know when you'll need them. Firstly, I recommend carrying one of those mini bottles of deodorant or body spray with you (this is very important, especially if you have PE). Secondly, one of my ultimate essentials for school is hand sanitizer or hand gel - there are lots of people in schools, therefore lots of germs and sometimes you might just feel the urge to sanitize your hands - hence the name, hand sanitizer. Another item I really do recommend keeping in your bag (or locker, if you have them) is some tissues - so helpful to have just in case you unexpectedly need one! I also really recommend having some sort of make up wipes in your bag because you literally never know when you may need one - they're very convenient to have and super easy to fit in your bag. Obviously, feminine products are a must for school - you'll feel a lot more at ease if you're prepared!

Going onto the more academic and stationary essentials now. Firstly, you'll need the obvious items - pencil case, pens, pencils, rulers, blah blah blah. However, in addition to this, you might find it super helpful to purchase revision essentials at the start of the year (trust me, it'll be much easier when it gets to exam season if you've made a start on revision earlier on) so I recommend getting some index cards (flash cards) and coloured pens (colour helps some people remember things easier) and general revision materials. Also, I recommend getting binder folders because you'll be able to store everything a lot easier, a lot neater and it'll all be together so you don't have to worry about losing it - perfect.

I hope this post helps you guys and gives you an idea of what my back to school essentials are! See you next week!
