How to Stay Fresh During A Full Day on Campus • #CollegePrep

Cleansing Products

Staying fresh, for me, doesn’t always mean spritzing some flower-overload body mist wheneverI feel it’s needed. To stay fresh, I need to feel fresh and know that I’m prepared for the realities of being a woman (*sigh*).

I was recently sent the Simply Coconut Water line from Summer’s Eve® and have had the pleasure of testing out what are now new members of my “purse essentials” family.

Although I love testing out products, I choose to stay mindful of the body products I use on a daily basis. With a gentle foaming wash, cleansing washes, and wipes free from dyes, parabens, and alcohol—I felt my best using this Simply by Summer's Eve® line that is balanced for a woman’s pH.

These Simply coconut water wipes are extremely easy to pop into any sized purse, clutch, or backpack sleeve. Trust me, feeling fresh “down there’ throughout a busy day is the golden key to a calm vibe. 

There’s nothing like knowing that I’m fresh enough to go out for a random dinner, hit up the library, or run some errands in-between trekking across campus for classes and meetings. Then, when it’s time for me to unwind, using the Simply Lavender + Chamomile cleansing wash in the shower was exactly what I needed to slip into PJ’s and feel (and smell) revived.

I found both scents to be extremely subdued, rather than overpowering and strong. I normally can’t stand heavy scents for sensitive areas, but appreciated how truly “simple” these products really are.

Aside from the Simply cleansing wipes I mentioned above, I genuinely can’t go without at least three types of chapstick, lip gloss, a fragrance roll, hand sanitizer, panty liners, and a small pack of baby wipes.

Lip

The chapsticks I always bring with me include one for intense moisture, one with a natural red pigment, and another option for both lip tint and scent (or taste). They’re usually all natural, since my skin is pretty sensitive, and can be used interchangeably if I want a more dramatic glossy look.

If you’ve ever felt like you can’t win on a hot day, please consider investing in a box of Simply Summer's Eve® wipes to test them out as you use the restroom. Trust me, alongside a quick roll of your ragrance, a cleansing wipe, and some lip gloss—you’ll start to feel like a solid 10/10 no matter the weather or schedule.

For the rest of my go-to body products, I also carry hand sanitizer and baby wipes to make sure I'm prepared for whatever sneaks into my day. This way, that quick bathroom break "reset" leaves me walking back into class or towards my next destination feeling brand new.
