School Shopping List Must-Haves
It's back-to-school crunch time! Style expert Jorge Ramon shares his money and time saving must-haves to put on your BTS shopping list.
"It's important for kids to be stylish on their first day back at school," says Jorge. Suave Kids has introduced its first-ever styling products formulated for little ones, It's also parent approved because it's alcohol and dye-free, and dermatologist tested (rinses off clean so no residue!).
Spike it! -The Cool Ocean Blast Gel is perfect for spiking hair, creating a wet-look while adding a bit of rock and roll to your kids style, leaving no build-up or flakes.
Go Curly- The Cherry Vanilla Bop Mousse helps control frizz, define curls and smooth hair for all-day styles without the crunch.
The stylers are $3 each. Check out Suave Beauty on Facebook for more info.
When lunchtime rolls around "it's all about value and of course looking for foods that are good for you," says Jorge. 365 Everyday Value(R) products from Whole Foods Market have great deals all year long, and the products are free of artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, sweeteners and hydrogenated oils with both natural and organic selections.
For the lunchbox....
Greek Yogurts- They're an excellent source of calcium. Healthy Tip: substitute it for mayonnaise when you're making sandwiches.... They have different types with a fruit mix side car, so kids can mix in as much extra fruit to their yogurt as they want.
Sweet Treat-365 Everyday Value(R) Organic Pears are individually packed in organic pear juice from concentrate - not syrup, which means less sugar. It's also high in vitamin c - a great dessert perk!
Don't forget about breakfast! The 365 Everyday Value(R) frozen mini waffles are organic, made with whole-wheat flour and a good source of fiber. The small sizes are easy to grab-on the-go and are perfect for the older ones going off to college.
And speaking of college...Bed Bath & Beyond(R) is a great one stop shop for back to college shopping. They have a really cool FREE service, "Shop Here, Pick up There" where students can shop for all their dorm room essentials at a store near home and have everything ready to be picked up at a store near their campus.
Cool things to find there:
Bed Risers- They maximize the underbed space in small dorm rooms and have an AC outlet and USB charger, so you can plug stuff in while you're working in bed.
Stylish Bedding- The Joanna Back to School Dorm Kit has everything you need to create a fun, luxurious bed away from home, all packed into one reusable storage bag," says Jorge. Talk about easy!
