Now that spring has officially sprung, Her Campus is helping Collegiettes get ready for the sun by keeping our everyday hair, skin and handiwork-needs fulfilled with the 2018 Spring Survival Kits.

 

You *HAVE* to check out all the amazing goodies from the Her Campus sponsors that are perfect for spring. 

 

Alba Botanica™ Hawaiian Sunscreen SPF 30 – 1 oz  The first thing to add to your spring shopping list is some sunscreen. Now that the sun has finally come out after that long, cold winter, you need to keep in mind that your skin will be extra sensitive to the sun — and if you aren’t properly prepared, the rays can really be damaging to your skin. So, head to Target or your local pharmacy and pick up the Alba Botanica™ Hawaiian Sunscreen!  This travel sized lotion is perfect to fit in your purse, backpack or pool bag to protect you from the harmful springtime rays, allowing you to still enjoy your time outside. They’re the perfect little gifts for you and your friends as well. With its high intensity protection, water resistance up to 80 minutes and the recommendation from the Skin Cancer Foundation, this is some SPF you need to pick up ASAP!

 

Bed Head™ by TIGI ‘Superstar’ SUPERSTAR™ QUEEN FOR A DAY THICKENING SPRAY is a must-have this spring. It’s available in a 10.2 FL. OZ. bottle, so it’s promised to last for the entire warm-month period. The Palm Kernal Glycerides help to create volume and texture so hair feels thicker, fuller and voluminous and it conditions your hair so it feels smooth and soft.  Providing a long-lasting hold so your hair styles don’t drop out means that you absolutely need this for all of your sweet, springtime dates. 

 

Bed Head™ by TIGI ‘GET TWISTED’ Bed Head™ products are always a crowd — and hair! — pleaser, so make sure this gets put on your spring shopping list, too!  The Bed Head™ GET TWISTED™ ANTI- FRIZZ FINISHING SPRAY is available in a green 6.76 FL.

It’s perfect for a night out with the girls or for an extra boost of confidence for date night!

 

L’ORÉAL PARIS​ ‘Sublime Bronze’ Self-Tanning Towelettes Raise your hand if you’re skin needs some color before you reconnect with your favorite jean shorts this spring! *Raises hand* Luckily, the L’ORÉAL PARIS Self-Tanning Towelettes are here to help you prepare your skin with a smooth, streak-free medium color, giving you that natural tan. This box includes 6 quick & convenient single use wipes for your body, and the quick drying formula makes it easy to apply after your showers before or after class. The towelettes are not only easy to use, but they also deliver a streak-free, natural looking tan, and with enough self-tanner for one application, each towelette is perfect for at home or on-the-go.  Once you start you should continue to use Sublime Bronze™ until you have reached your desired level of tan and you’re ready for bikini season!

 

Krazy Glue Singles College life in the spring gets “Krazy” between the projects, finals and going away parties — it seems like everything is out of control and falling apart. So, use some of this Krazy Glue to put the little things back together!
