Finals Survival Kit

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at VCU chapter.

VCU collegiettes had their last general body meeting of the Fall 2015 semester last night. Needless to say, there were tears as we said goodbye to our amazing Editor-In-Chief, Noura Bayoumi. To cheer up the mood, Her Campus VCU members were surprised with an incredible Finals Survival Kit!

The kit includes essential items to ace our exams!

With finals in full swing, you know what the means…stress breakouts! Thanks to a 90-day full treatment set from Proactiv, my skin can’t be mad at me.

Spending the night at Cabell? Come 10 p.m., you know the security guard is going to distract your cram session and ask for your VCU ID. Stick your card in your new Vera Bradley Zip ID case so you don’t have to go looking for it.

More time studying for finals = less time for showers. While this is a sacrifice we are all forced to make, we cannot let our hair take the fall. TRESemmé Perfectly (un)Done Sea Salt Spray will keep our locks looking fabulous, even during hell-week.

If there is one thing we deem “O.K.” during finals week, it has to be the ridiculous amounts of food we stuff our face with (coping because we have sold our souls to our professors). Chipotle’s BOGO and Free Entrée cards seem to be a valid justification to this coping process.

Done with exams, and ready for vacay? Whether it is at our favorite beach spot or music festival, Michael Kors has got us covered with 24K Brilliant Gold-Scented Flash Tattoos!

Shoutout to our amazing sponsors for these finals-tastic goodies! We can’t wait to kick butt on our finals, thanks to Her Campus!
