Whether you're a serious beauty lover or not. I think we can all agree that we want the makeup we wear to have some serious lasting power. Who wants to go to all the effort of a precise application only for it to slide of your face in a matter of hours? Not me. So many products claim that they can stand the test of time and last for up to 16 hours, but it's rare that those ambitious claims are true. So today, I've rounded up eight of my favourite long lasting products to share with you. 

It's that not so wonderful time of the year. It's the prime season for my skin to be dull as dishwater and it needs all the help that it can get. Between the delicious but poor diet at Christmas and the below zero temperatures. It's no surprise that my complexion is looking less than radiant. Of course, the most important thing is returning my diet back to its usual somewhat healthy state. But I've also been reaching for 5 staple glow-inducing products to help me out.  

There are always going to be those beauty products that you didn't quite get along with. It's impossible to like every single thing that you try, it doesn't mean it's bad but it just didn't work out for you. I'm going to be sharing 6 of the items that didn't quite do it for me today. Personally, I find these types of post almost as helpful as favourites. 

Unfortunately, I finished 2015 and began the New Year with a terrible bout of flu. Safe to say, I felt pretty horrendous and needed all the beauty pick me ups that I could get my hands on when I was feeling well enough to apply them. Now we're into winter it's a known time for people to become unwell and feel under the weather but these 6 beauty products are the perfect pick me ups.
