ICYMI, our team was out and about in the library last Monday with some summer essentials to give away from our 2017 Summer Survival Kit. The items that were given away are complete must-haves for this summer. Here’s why:

Secret Invisible Solid Cool Waterlily

This new line lasts up to not 24, but 48 whole hours of protection. THAT IS TWO WHOLE DAYS! It even comes in 11 different fragrances, so there’s bound to be the perfect one for you. This is perfect for the summer heat because you get extra protection from sweat and smell!

essence cosmetics – Eyebrow Designer

This is an up-and-coming beauty line that is cruelty free! These little eyebrow pencils are so easy to use and fit perfectly in your on-the-go makeup bag. You can use the pencil to outline, define, and fill-in your brows and the brush to blend it all together. You can find these at Ulta if you missed it in our giveaways. 

Steripod – Steripod Toothbrush Protector

This is an awesome little tool for your vacays this summer. You just clip it on your toothbrush while you travel and it keeps your toothbrush fresh and clean for up to three months! You definitely need this in your life for all of your traveling this summer. Steripod uses thymol which is an ingredient found in mouthwash and other dental products. It has an air circulation system to keep your brush dry so bacteria cannot form on it. 

Summer’s Eve – Simply Summer’s Eve Gentle Foaming Wash (in Coconut Water and Mandarin Orange) and Simply Summer’s Eve Cleansing Cloths (in Coconut Water and Mandarin Orange)

Simply Summer’s Eve is a new line by Summer’s Eve that is free of harsh chemicals to keep your pH levels in check, whether it be at the beach, the pool on a hot day, or when you are out walking your dog. The products are even infused with botanical extracts. With this line, you get your choice of two nature inspired scents: Mandarin Orange and Coconut Water – the perfect scents for summer. The cleansing cloths are perfect for on-the-go in your purse or gym bag. Just a quick swipe, and you’ll be good to go! The gentle foaming wash lathers up and washes away any odor causing bacteria, while keeping everything balanced and clean. These products are Khloe Kardashian approved, so you obviously have to get your hands on them ASAP.

Penguin Random House – White Fur by Jardine Libaire

Talk about an enchanting summer read! This book is perfect for your beach or pool bag when you are ready to relax out in the sun. This is a love story set in 1980’s New York City. A girl who grew up in the housing projects, and a boy from an affluent family, move to Manhattan to give their love a chance outside of the disapproving family. However, the boy’s family still tries to intervene and break them apart. Will they make it through? You’ll have to read to find out!

And we have koozies! Lots of cute koozies courtesy of Her Campus!
