Back to School + School Makeup Bag Essentials!

Hey, it's Alison and Katie here and this is our first blog post on this blog. Today it's going to be on Back to School Essentials since the Summer holidays are almost over! For us anyway!

Our Back to School Essentials consist of...A school bag to carry all the essentials, obviously! This year we are both using backpacks, however messenger bags and totes are really good if your not carrying as much 'stuff' as us. A binder with binder paper or a refill pad. A notebook to take notes, duh! A pencil case to keep pens, pencils, rubbers, sharpeners, rulers etc. Pop stud, zip folders or poly pockets to keep papers in, or in our case French and Maths! A planner or agenda to keep up to date on when homework is due. P.E. Kit (if you take P.E.). A Purse for lunch money. A bottle of water or MacBee to drink during class if you get thirsty, it's always handy! Your IPod or Phone and earphones to listen to music. And last but certainly not least...of course, a makeup bag!

Makeup Bag Essentials: A mini hair brush, you know if your hair gets tangled. A mini powder brush and a pressed powder in case you get oily during the long and exhausting school day. A nail strengthener or a clear nail varnish in case you get a 'flimsy' nail. A mini body cream to put on if you skins feeling a little dry. Also a mini hand cream too. Baby Lips/lip balm, of course! A lipstick, just to top up, you know. Eye lash curler, we think that just curling your lashes gives them more volume so that's why it's in our essentials. A mini perfume and deodorant, you want to smell nice, right? A bow, we are soooo obsessed with bows so, like, you have to have a spare! A hair elastic if you want to tie your hair up for P.E. or Science or H.E. Also some kirbies too.  Paracetamol or Ibuprofen sachets or tables incase you feel under the weather. Concealer, if you want to cover up in the middle of the day. Hand sanitizer, schools are full of germs! Plasters in case you get a boo boo!:(  Mints because we know that a lot of schools are harsh about chewing gum so mints are a nice alternative.
