While you're adding essentials like notebooks and new pencils to your virtual cart, you might want to consider throwing in some classroom-friendly beauty supplies, too. (Lip) markers? Check. (Nail) stickers? Got 'em. (Eyelash-curling) USB? Done. We've stocked the ultimate kit for students of impeccable grooming. You'll always be prepared with these in your backpack.
