College Student Send-Off Care Packages
High School Graduation is HERE! And while the sentimental gift giving or monetary gift giving is the typical graduation gift selection, we are here to help you also think ahead to the college send-off care package.
The trend is now moving to have a smaller graduation party - many times a quiet dinner out with only family - and a larger send off farewell party. Regardless, farewell packages for college students are trending and a great way to give them a sweet send-off on their new adventures!
Here are our TOP TEN suggestions for the perfect college care package:
1) Artisan Soap (we have multiples to choose from but Wildflower is our favorite) or European Soap (also lots of amazing scents to choose from) - It's the simple things. You don't want your college student buying cheap soap or body wash that is going to make their skin dry and itchy.
2) Spa Pouf - an amazing all-natural soap deserves one of our oh-so-soft spa poufs!
3) 1818 Shea Creme - For after shower, 1818 Farms shea creme will continue to keep their skin soft and moisturized!
4) Desert Bloom lip balm - Keep their lips naturally moisturized with Lavender Thorne's lip balm.
5) Makeup Eraser - These are always good to have on hand for those lazy days of washing their face. Simply wet and wash! We have multiple options available, both large single cloth and small multiple ones. The Plant Power set has been the current popular choice.
6) Silicone Keychain Wristlet & Macrame Keychain - The silicone wristlet is great to hold their keys on the wrist for when out and about walking. And well, the macrame keychain is just skinkin' cute!
7) Bamboo hair brush - These are beneficial for hair, no breakage and massages scalp.
8) Plastic free hair ties - Sustainability is simple with these plastic free hair ties. Great for busy students!
9) Dry Shampoo & Applicator brush - College living essential for less hair washing!
10) Room & Linen spray - Great for car, dorm room air freshener, bathroom, bed, backpack - anything that needs to be refreshed!
Whatever you choose to add to the care package, they will know you care and thinking about them during their new adventures!

Introducing Our New 4 Scent Collection: Serenity, Restore, Purify, and Energize
Our new 4 Scent Collection — Serenity, Restore, Purify, and Energize — is designed to turn everyday self-care into a simple, intentional ritual. Each collection includes a bath soak, body scrub, and all-natural body spray to create a complete, layered experience for both skin and well-being.
Start with a mineral-rich soak to relax muscles, soften skin, and reset your mind. Follow with a body scrub to gently exfoliate and reveal smoother, more radiant skin. Finish with a clean, essential oil-based body spray for a light, mood-boosting scent — without the harsh chemicals of traditional fragrances.
Each scent serves a purpose: Serenity calms and relaxes, Restore soothes sore muscles, Purify detoxifies and refreshes, and Energize uplifts and revitalizes — giving you exactly what your body needs, when you need it.
