Hey Grace's viewers!
From
reading the title you may be slightly confused of who/what
dollysnowflake is. Well firstly let us just say hi, we're dollysnowflake
(Olivia and Poppy) and we write our own fashion and beauty blog just
like Graces! We are writing a post on Graces blog as she on holiday but
wanted her lovely viewers to still have a post to read, so that is where
we come in. If you would like to check out our blog click here and to read more about dollysnowflake go on the 'about us' section of our blog.
So
after that slightly rambly start we are going to write about back to
school survival kit. I'm sure some of you have just gone back to school
or some of you are going back some time soon (boo!) so we thought this
would be the perfect post to write for you. For you who don't know what a
survival kit is its basically items that you keep in your bag to keep
you prepared for all possible situations. So to find out whats in our
back to school survival kit stay tuned.
1.
My first tip for what to put in your survival kit would be a hand
sanitiser. You can get these for as cheap as £1 which would be £1 very
well spend as hand sanitisers can come in handy a lot at school. Think
about how many germs there is on school keyboards, or the banisters on
the stairs? Its always good to be the friend who everyone asks to borrow
their hand sanitiser!
2.
The next thing I would recommend is gum/mints. Some of my favourites
would be Polos or Wrigleys which you can get basically anywhere. A lot
of teachers won't let you eat/chew in class but it is always good to have
in your school bag for in-between classes. You never know when the
school cafeteria could be serving garlic bread and you don't want your
breath to be smelling horrid. Also I think that gum and mints wake me up
on a morning but I don't know about you!?
3.The
next essential is a lip balm or some sort of lip product that we keep
your lips looking nice and feeling hydrated through out the day. Two of
our personal favourite lip products for school are the 'Revlon lip
butters' we think these lipsticks are so nice and glossy but have just
the right amount of colour for school, although some are a lot more
pigmented than the others; Our other favourite lip product for school are
the 'Maybelline baby lips' we adore these products as they are better
for your lips than any lipstick and make them feel silky smooth too!
They come in a range of sheer colours like pink, cherry and peach or you
could choose one with no colour at all.
4.
The last essential we are going to talk about today is for us the most
important, its a snack of some
sort. Having something to eat at school is vital as it's very unhealthy to go 5-6 hours without anything to munch on. So we think having a cereal bar in your packed lunch box is key because they are healthy as well as filling and they will also give you lots of energy ( which everyone needs at school! ) We love nutri-grain bars because they are so tasty and come in a range of different flavors.

So, that was our top 4 things to keep in your survival kit! Here is a list of other things you could keep in your survival kit-
- plasters/bandaids
- bobbles and clips
- face wipes
- spare essential makeup
- spare pen/stationary for if you leave your pencil case at home
- tweezers
- compact mirror
- tissues
- paracetamol (check if your school allows it first though)
