This is a sponsored feature. All opinions are 100% from Her Campus.
I was beginning to get anxious about the Her Campus Survival Kit because I saw so many other chapters posting about it and now that it is here I am so excited for these brands and they are all so helpful for back-to-school!
I just wanted to thank our sponsors: Freeman Beauty, Aeropostale, Bed Head by Tigi, Spindrift Sparkling Water, Erin Condren, Hi-Chew Candy, LâOrĂ©al Paris, and Steripod! Thank you for providing us with all these goodies all the way in Hawaiâi. As we would say here, much mahalo (Thank you)!

Face masks are LIFE
I love face masks and so does our Her Campus Chapter! They make feeling good and relaxation so easy! Freeman Beauty face masks use the purest and most effective ingredients that do wonders for our skin. This time of the semester where weâre eating junk food and staying up late, our skin is not the best it could be BUT these face masks help you get back to that good skin confidence! Hereâs what some of our members had to say about their face mask.
âThe Charcoal and Black Sugar Mud mask was my favorite and did wonders to my skin! It left it feeling soooo smooth because of the exfoliating sugar as well as the charcoal that lifted away any toxins my skin had.â – Her Campus HPU Campus Correspondent Amanda Kowalski
Low-Key Fabulous
Aeropostale gave us some accessories and we love pairing them with Aeropostale jeans. It is fall in Hawaiâi so the weather is beginning to get slightly chilly. Our go-to fall outfit has to be jeans, boots, and a basic tee. We love Aeropostale’s âSeriously Stretchy Denim Stylesâ because HPU is a commuting campus so we need comfortable jeans that will take us from class at Loa to Aloha Tower and then back up Fort Street. The accessories we received are perfect complements to these jeans! We suggest wearing sunglasses to protect your eyes and stacking those rings!
Messy hair, donât careâŠkind of
Bed Head by Tigi hooked us up with dry shampoo and hairspray and we are set to take on this humid weather! Hawaiâi is hot 24/7 and ainât nobody got time to wash their hair every day. The âDirty Secret and Oh Bee Hive! Matte Dry Shampooâ helps us combat our second-day to third-day oily hair and adds major volume. ALSO, the Dirty Secret dry shampoo saves us from heat damage and color loss, TWO-IN-ONE WINNAHS!
With the humidity we deal with, we need hairspray in our life. So Bed Head got us covered, even the hair on the back of our necks will stay down. Bed Head provided us with âMasterpiece Shine Hairsprayâ which not only combats humidity but also guards us against dryness. The âHard Head Hairsprayâ on the other hand dries instantly and has a rock solid hold that can take on any weather.
I am sparkling like Spindrift
Spindrift is a crisp, delightful sparkling water and is made with real, squeezed fruit. SAY WHAT?! Spindrift keeps it as simple as it gets; from the farm to the can. Spindrift is unsweetened and only uses their real fruit juices to sweeten it up! They offer flavors like lemon, cucumber, grapefruit, orange mango, raspberry lime, strawberry, and blackberry and itâs recommended to serve chilled or over ice. These are great for hot days at the beach to refresh yourself after playing some beach volleyball.
Planning…itâs a lifestyle
Erin Condren…in the planning and organizing world, that name is GOLD! We love our Hardbound Life Planners To Go because first of all…hardcover. If you are anything like me, you just toss anything and everything into your bag where they get ruined, but this planner wonât! Also, it is SO CUSTOMIZABLE; with the horizontal week plan and the monthly overview, the possibilities are endless. Lastly, we are covered until DECEMBER 2018, thank goodness!
I chew, you chew, we all scream for HI-CHEW
HI-CHEW is a candy that I grew up on; it is something that is common in convenience stores and grocery stores here in Hawaiâi. You do not know how happy I was knowing we got sponsored by HI-CHEW! It is made with real fruit that make this fun candy chewy and juicy. It is common in Japan and is becoming more popular in America. Flavors include grape, cherry, banana, strawberry, mango, green apple, and kiwi. Be on the lookout for their product âFizziesâ which contain the flavors of cola and orange-soda and sour flavors in lemon, lime, and grapefruit.
Suns down, tanning wipes out!
LâOrĂ©al is a product that everyone and their mother have been buying for years! Based in Paris, they are providing affordable beauty care products all over the world. In our Survival Kits, we received the âLâOrĂ©al Paris Sublime Bronze Self-Tanning Towelettesâ and âLâOrĂ©al Paris Sublime Bronze ProPerfect Salon Airbrush Mistâ which is perfect for the upcoming winter months. Here in Hawaiâi it gets rained out so often during the fall and winter which can make it difficult to get a tan at the beach. With these self-tanning towelettes, they are easy to take on-the-go and the tan develops between 2-4 hours which is natural and streak-free. While the airbrush mist is 360 degrees and helps you get into hard to reach places.
LâOrĂ©al also provided us the Hydra Genius that gives our skin that moisture that is long lasting and with the aloe water and hyaluronic acid that will keep hydration up to 72 hours! This product is lightweight and LâOrĂ©al has three different formulas that is customized for each skin type.
