Simply Sensitive Summer’s Eve® Cleansing Cloths

You may know Summer’s Eve as a leader in feminine hygiene products, and they have now developed Cleansing Cloths that provide an easy and discreet way to feel confidently fresh. The gentle formulas won’t irritate sensitive skin and are hypoallergenic and alcohol-free. We’ve all had those “not so fresh” moments, whether you’re sprinting to class through the courtyard, working out at the rec, or even if it’s “that time of the month.” Simply Sensitive Summer’s Eve Cleaning Clothes are perfect to toss in your purse, gym bag, or pocket whenever you’re on the go. They’re lightly fragranced and quickly wipe away odor-causing bacteria. They come in a variety of scents to stay fresh throughout all life’s special moments.

GreenPan Mini Ceramic Non-Stick Square Egg Pan

Let’s face it: you don’t have time to vigorously scrub off stuck egg remnants on a pan when you’re already late for class. That’s where GreenPan Mini Ceramic Non-Stick Square Egg Pan comes into play. The GreenPan Square Egg Pan is perfect for all of your breakfast and brunch needs. It’s coated with Thermolon ceramic non-stick, perfect for frying results, easy cleaning and using less oil. Plus, the pan provides quick and even heating and heavy gauge construction for reliable cooking results. Also, don’t worry about burning yourself, because the product has a stay-cool non-slip handle with a silicone sleeve. This cutie is the perfect addition to your new kitchen on sorority row!

Zebra Pen Assortment

It may not be very exciting taking notes in class every day, but you can totally spice it up with Zebra’s Pen Assortment. The pens are Sarasa Gel pens featuring Rapid Dry Ink. Why rapid dry, you ask? No smudging! We are featuring three pens. One is the Z-Grip Plus Ballpoint pen, which features a very smooth low-viscosity ballpoint ink. The second is the H-301 Steel Highlighter, which is part of the Steel line of products. Finally, the third is the F-301 BCA, which is particularly special because the pink barrel on it is aimed at Breast Cancer Awareness. It’s a steel ballpoint pen with black ink.

Going back to college for the first semester of the new year may seem daunting, but you can ease your worries if you have the above products with you on your journey. Good luck!
