Campus Living Reimagined
ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / August 12, 2026 / The college checklist is getting an update as Gen Z puts a fresh spin on campus living, from dorm room essentials to everyday routines. Lifestyle correspondent, digital creator, and Emmy Award-winning journalist Michelle Park gives the details on what's influencing students' shopping lists this season and how today's students are preparing for campus life.
WHERE TO START
Start with beauty routines. IPSY is the leading curated beauty membership. They deliver the most viral, coveted beauty and skincare products to your door every month to help find a unique sense of beauty. Each assortment is customized to personal beauty preferences, whether a seasoned makeup artist or simply looking to discover new favorites. This is the perfect gift for any kid heading to college. Choose from 3-, 6-, or 12-month giftable subscriptions starting at just $52. Head over to IPSY.com/gift to learn more.
THE LATEST TECH
Tech is such a huge part of student life, so for the latest tech, Michelle recommends Dell XPS 13. It delivers a premium experience without the expensive price tag. It is the thinnest, lightest XPS ever made at just 2.2 pounds. With up to 17 hours of battery life, thanks to the latest Intel Core Series 3 processors, students can go from morning lectures to late-night studying without hunting for an outlet. The touchscreen display and backlit keyboard make it easy to work anywhere-even in a dimly lit dorm room. Students ages 16 and up can get one for $599 for a limited time. Find the new Dell XPS 13 at Dell.com.

SOMETHING TO MAKE DORM LIVING BETTER
Students want a space that feels comfortable, clean, and worry-free. That is why the Zevo Compact Flying Insect Trap is a must-have essential for any college dorm. Designed specifically for smaller spaces, it uses blue and UV light to lure, trap, and kill 99.9% of trapped bugs, providing 24/7 continuous protection so students can focus on studying, relaxing, and making memories instead of dealing with unwanted flying insects.
