Amazon has become a very dangerous website for me to be on since coming to college. They have everything you could possibly want, all for very decent prices. With Amazon Prime, their shipping is as quick as can be! It makes buying products online easier than ever. Over the past three years I have done lots of shopping and found some amazing must haves for any college girl, on Amazon.
Amazon is quite literally the best place to buy stuff on for college students because you can also get a student discount for amazon prime which is nice because it comes down to about 6 dollars a person and so it is definitely something to take advantage of as a student while you can. I think prime is definitely worth it whether you are a student or not but you might as well take advantage of the discount while you can. For 6 dollars a month, you are saving so much just by receiving free shipping, on top of the short amount of time that it takes to get packages which is what really makes it worth it.
The first category of products I love from amazon are, accessories. I have bought jewelry, hair clips, shoes and so much more. In terms of jewelry, I have gotten some earrings and necklaces from there. All of the ones I have tried are priced affordably and are amazing quality for what you are paying for. It is nice to know that if you somehow lose it out at a party you would not be losing something that is at such a high price point. Listed below are some of my all time favorites. I have also bought some sunglasses from Amazon, and I love them. They came in a two pack and because they are a little trendier it was nice that they were super affordable and allowed me to try a new style I might not normally have.

The Second category is decor for your dorm or house in college. It is nice to have shipping be so quick on amazon and to be able to order stuff last minute or even once you get to school. I have found that it is always a good idea to buy couch and chair covers for your furniture at school. If they provide it for you consider that you may not want to be fined for any spills or stains, and they also tend not to be the cleanest so it is good idea for multiple reasons. I also found a neon letter that is such great quality and also so affordable. I have one in my room and have convinced so many of my friends to buy it as well because neon signs can be so expensive and it is so easy to use. You can plug it into a USB or use the battery pack, and both are college dorm room friendly so that is nice. Another product I use daily in my college house is my hand held mixer for my coffee and matcha lattes. It is so nice because it allows you to save some money by not buying lattes everyday and because it’s so compact it does not take up too much space on counters. The last thing I have bought from amazon for my college house is clear storage bins. These are amazing because they make your shelves or desk counter look so organized but they also hold a lot! They come in a pack of two, and they stack on top of each other which is helpful to save desk or shelf space.

The third category I wanted to talk about is beauty and face products. I recently began using reusable cotton rounds and they are a game changer. They come in a big pack and with a mesh bag to wash them with. They work great to get my makeup off and I do not need to buy any more disposable cotton rounds or makeup wipes again, which over time is going to save me so much money. I also have purchased many lotions and makeup items from Amazon which are now part of my daily routine.
