Have you ever wondered what other people keep in their backpacks? 🎒 I’m sharing all of the things I keep in my college backpack and I’m confident it’s organized pretty well so maybe use it for inspiration if you’re wanting to organize your bag better. 
Some things I usually keep in my bag:
➖ pencils, highlighters, pens and other school supplies
➖ notebooks
➖ snacks
➖ water bottle
➖ laptop
➖ planner
➖ bamboo organizer with mirror
➖ makeup for touching up
➖ backscratcher (this really comes in handy!)
Why you need to organize your items in the bag?
Organizing your school items is really important especially on a busy day with classes back to back where you have little time to re-organize your things before walking to your next class. That’s why I like this compact bamboo organizer by Oasis that comes with a mirror. The mirror stands on its own in the organizer which is phenomenal. It measures 📏 out to be exactly 5.37 X 5.37 X 2 inches.
What I use to organize things
I bought mine at Grocery Outlet which is a grocery store with household items kind of like ALDI and that’s where this link shows you can buy. I believe you can buy it at other places too but Grocery Outlet will probably have the best price.

Alternative product
I found another one by Simplify that literally looks exactly the same as the Oasis one I have! It’s only slightly larger by a tiny margin. Normally I would list the benefits and drawbacks of this competitor but I really don’t need to because it looks like a copycat of the Oasis one that’s just more expensive.

IN CONCLUSION,
if you can get your hands on the Oasis one that I have I would highly suggest it! Although it was an impulse buy I added to my cart while grocery shopping I am so glad I decided to get it. This is going to be my new favorite container for make-up when traveling as well as a must have in my school bag. The top doesn’t stay on as well as I would like so lately I’ve been adding a rubber band around it which has been helpful.
