College is a whirlwind of experiences and emotions, and young girls should be prepared for them all. Help your college girl make the most of her years on campus with gifts that support her without impeding on her newfound sense of independence. Not sure what a college girl might need once she leaves the nest? No problem! Below, you’ll find a selection of the best gifts for college girls hand-selected with the young ladies in mind. Ranging from the practical to the college-certified crazy, these gifts are perfect for the girl balancing school, work, and the social intricacies of dorm life.
Gifts for College Girls
Rocketbook Smart Reusable Notebook
Let’s admit a truth: college is expensive – every girl in school knows that. Sustainable gifts will always be appreciated by your college student, and the Rocketbook reusable notebook does it better than most. Connecting traditional handwriting surfaces with the power of the cloud, when a girl takes notes in the Rocketbook, they will automatically be uploaded to any popular cloud service; Afterwards, they can simply wipe the page clean and start fresh. With no notes ever lost and so many exciting color options, girls in college will be ready and eager to make the most of every lecture.
Mini Multitool Clip Set
Since their clothes rarely come with practical pockets, girls in college will need to get creative when it comes to preparing for the day. When a pocketknife isn’t practical, the multitool clip is prepared for action. Beyond the expected hair maintenance capabilities, this useful gift functions as a knife, a screwdriver, a bottle opener, and more. For work, play, and everything in between, a set of 1, 2, or 3 mini clips is a gorgeous accessory that ensures your college girl always has the right tool for the job.
The Large Ultimate Detangler Hairbrush
Thick, curly hair is difficult to manage in a 5-star bathroom set-up. In a college dorm, decent hair care can seem all but impossible. Your college girl can still get model-quality hair, though, even in an uninspired life of dormitory living. The Tangle Teezer is a hairbrush made for those girls with long, curly, unmanageable locks, toting two-tiered technology that combats frizz with damaging or breaking follicles in the process. Flexible teeth and waterproof materials lend the hairbrush well to shower use, allowing for treatment distribution without pain or tears, giving college girls luxurious hair in a less than luxurious setting.
Eco-Friendly Insect Catcher
Now that your college girl is living away from home, you won’t always be there to capture those pesky bug roommates that cause her such grief. An insect catcher is a must-have gift for any student that still struggles to deal with these intruders themselves. At 10-inches long, girls in college won’t need to get close to bees, beetles, or spiders in order to humanely capture them, and with the thumb-operated gate, you can be sure there won’t be any unexpected escapes before the pest is released back outside. Don’t let bugs continue to bug a college girl next semester!
Smart Beauty Mirror with Skin Analyzer
Following make-up routines online is an age-old tradition for girls everywhere. With the aid of a HiMirror and a generous supply of quality make-up, creating truly inspired looks can be easier than ever before. By playing videos directly on the screen itself, the smart beauty mirror does away with phone fumbling as a girl applies eyeliner and contour, allowing her to instead charge her device on the wireless charging pad in the base. What’s more, with LEDs integrated into the frame, your young women will always have the right lighting to ensure an even look. When college girls reflect upon the greatest gifts they’ve received, make sure the HiMirror is at the top of the list.
LIKDAY AirPods Strap
Airpods have their uses, no doubt, but when a college girl is racing across the green between classes, maneuvering between crowds of meandering students on the quad, the last thing she wants to worry about is losing an earphone in the rush. LIKDAY AirPod straps secure a pair of AirPods to one another, preventing any unexpected slips from resulting in an incredibly expensive disaster. The anti-lost wire cable connector is gentle on the skin and on AirPods, and with fun colors like midnight blue and mint green available, this accessory can prove to be a fashion statement more than worth the gift.
Quirky Pen Zen Bamboo
The quirky college girl should have a quirky dorm room, and with gifts like the Quirky pen holder, her desk is bound to become the talk of the hall. Rubber extrusions serve as ideal shelves for pens, pencils, and other useful utensils for a college girl working at her desk; Meanwhile, hidden magnets support paper clips and pins as if by magic. Eliminate desk clutter with a quirky gift and improve your college student’s productivity – or at the very least, their amusement – for their upcoming semester with the sleek desk organizer.
Stick-On Phone Wallet
Does your college girl have a tendency to misplace her student ID? Then it’s time for a gift that secures that ID to the once thing she’d never leave behind! The Sinjimoru stick-on wallet is a simple, monotone wallet in black, green, red, or beige that attaches directly to a girl’s phone, allowing her to keep her IDs and cards on hand without a second thought. A built-in finger loop provides additional value to the pocket wallet, improving your loved one’s grip and guaranteeing her phone takes no unexpected slips this semester. Stick to the gifts that you know will stick next time you shop for college girls!
Boobuddy Adjustable Breast Support Band
Getting in shape is a noble pursuit, so unwarranted movement beneath the sports bra should never discourage a girl from her fitness routine. The Boobuddy support band is an ideal gift for college girls who feel uncomfortable working out, even with the support of a sports bra, and are in dire need of a little extra security. Bright and neutral color options turn the adjustable breast band into a fashion statement a girl can flaunt, with or without a sports bra. Improve her posture and decrease her pain with the fitness gifts more supportive than any other friend she makes in school.
SubSafe Sub Sandwich Container
Eating on the go is standard for busy college girls. While you can’t create room in their schedule for a proper sit-down lunch, at least with the right gift, you can offer to make for a sub on the run a fresh one. The SubSafe sandwich protector eliminates soggy bread as your girl runs to class, allowing her to chow down on a 6-inch or 12-inch sub as fresh as ever once she has the time. The reusable sandwich container can hold more than just sandwiches, though; Keep valuable safe through hectic days, or sip a refreshing, age-appropriate drink from the colorful accessory designed for the stressed college student.

Noise Reduction Ear Plugs
College is a lot of things, quiet is not one of them.
