Yogitea 

In the Coffee-Tea war, I will choose tea any day. There is something wonderful about a steaming cup of tea during stressful times, and what’s a more stressful time than finals week? I am drinking the Sweet Tangerine: Positive Energy flavor as I write this and let me tell you, the positivity label is not wrong (Finals are AMAZING! I love negative degree wind chills!). But if you don’t like Tangerine, do not worry! The Yogi collection has 60 (yes 60!) varieties of green, herbal and black teas. #YogiTeaHC

Book of the Month

I think Book of the Month is the greatest idea ever. I am such a book nerd (I prefer the name literary aficionado), so the idea of a magical land where books are half priced AND guaranteed to be awesome (they’re hand picked by experts) is incomprehensible to me. And they make memberships easy and affordable for all of us college students. Seriously, use the code HERCAMPUS30 for 30% off a 3-month membership and a free tote! This comes to less than $10.50/month for a brand new hardcover book! Enroll at http://www.bookofthemonth.com/enroll. And I know you’re thinking, “How do I have time to read an extra book a month on top of all my studies?” No worries, my friend. December 20th is coming sooner than you think and then too much free time is all you’ll have to worry about.

7 Wonders Amazonian Acai Anti-pollution Mask, 7 Wonders Caribbean Coconut Calming Mask, 7 Wonder Kalahari Melon Moisturizing Mask (+ postcard)

Thank you, @leadersusa, for the spa night for me and my friend. Pictured above is the two of us. I admit, we both look like the main characters from a horror film called “Spa Night Monsters,” but the masks are actually great. I used the 7 Wonder Kalahari Melon Moisturizing Mask and my friend used the 7 Wonders Caribbean Coconut Calming Mask and afterward, both our faces felt refreshed and rejuvenated. AND the masks are cruelty-free. This product gets a yes from me.  Instagram: @leadersusa Facebook: Leaders Cosmetics USA Twitter: @leadersus  URLs:http://www.leaderscosmeticsusa.com/collections/7-wonders-coconut-masks/p… Hashtag: #LeadersInsolution, #BeALeader

Rimmel London – Scandaleyes Original Mascara, Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Eyeliner, Provocalips 16HR Kissproof Lip Colour, Natural Bronze

For you, Her Campus Readers, I’d do anything…like try on all the Rimmel London makeup and do a photoshoot in my dorm. It was all business. No fun involved. I mean, they said I had to picture the product…they didn’t say how. Anyway, I really liked the makeup. I tried out a winged eyeliner which turned out semi-symmetrical (if any of you has perfect wings, please tell me your ways). I also tried the red lipstick and if it really is a 16 hour lasting stain, I might be a little overdressed for bed. People say Bronzer is only for summer but I say, add some sunshine to those cheeks! Also, the mascara is fantastic. It’s actually one I use on the daily. But overall, I recommend Rimmel London. It’s a trusted brand and it won’t break the bank #helpmeimpoor

Pure Silk – Pure Silk Shave Cream in Raspberry Mist

In winter, you can get away with not shaving. But I admit, I still shave in the winter. There’s just something wonderful about shaving your legs and then getting into a pair of fuzzy pajama pants. If you haven’t experienced that, DO IT. Run to the store and buy shaving cream (I hear Pure Silk Shave Cream in Raspberry Mist is pretty great) and shave those legs for the full fuzzy pajama experience. You will not be disappointed.
