Sure, syllabus week is filled with the excitement of move-in, seeing your campus pals again after a long summer, and the promise of a pretty low-key week of lectures. But it’s also your one shot at establishing habits and routines that will carry you through the rest of the semester. That’s why we’ve partnered with OtterBox, Febreze®, Steripod, Garnier, and JuicePlus+ to set you up with all the essentials you need for a fresh start this semester. Shop all of our editors’ essentials below!
- A case upgrade from OtterBox
-
No more finding memes from a cracked screen. OtterBox’s new Symmetry Series cases offer the same Certified Drop+ Protection, but from the brand’s slimmest design to date. Pro Tip: Upgrade to the Otter + Pop Symmetry Series case for a built-in PopSocket for extra grip and personalization.
- A breath of fresh air from Febreze®
-
Wake up and smell…your roommate. Febreze®Air Purifiers knows dorm life isn’t always the most olfactory-friendly, which is why the Febreze® OdorGrab® Air Cleaner is totally clutch when it comes to filtering out odors from someone else’s cooking, pet, or tobacco use. OdorGrab® filters the air you breathe for quality, then circulates a (dare I say) delightful, fresh scent.
- French beauty secrets from Garnier
-
The French aren’t just good for fine wine and baguettes. Ask the study abroad kids—they’re skincare secrets are BOMB, too. This semester, I’ll be doing my skin a favor and ditching the abrasive acne scrubs (they’re no good for your skin in the long run) for Garnier’s All-in-1 Micellar Cleansing Water. Micelles capture (then lift away) dirt and grime to remove makeup and cleanse the skin in one step—so there’s no reason not to wash your face. Post-cleanse, spritz with Garnier’s Soothing Facial Mist with Rose Water to hydrate or lock in your favorite moisturizer. Pro tip: this baby also works double duty as a makeup primer or makeup setting spray.
- Basic hygiene (yes, I’m looking at you girl with the same toothbrush from last year) from Steripod
-
It’s fun to plan your skin, hair, and body routine for the semester, but don’t forget about basic hygiene. Keep your toothbrush protected from mysterious communal bathroom splash with Steripod’s Clip-On Toothbrush Protector. Thymol (found in most mouthwashes) keeps your toothbrush protected from cross-contamination if you share a toothbrush holder, plus keeps your toothbrush smelling super fresh. While you’re at it, keep your tongue free from bad-breath-inducing grime with Steripod Tongue Cleaner and protect your razor from shower scum with Steripod Razor Protector. Pro tip: bundle ‘em all with the Steripod Kit for Women.
- Nutrition on-the-go with JuicePlus+
-
Girl…I know your schedule is wild. If you’re hopping between class, to your internship, to your part-time job and back again this semester, make sure you’re taking care of YOU in-between engagements.
