Easy Steps To Help Your Makeup Last All Day
Makeup tends to hatch pretty some bold claims when it comes to longevity. And it's rare that they're actually true. Of course, there are a select few products that really do stand the test of time [see my favourites here]. A good formula can only go so far, though. Personally, I think the key to having makeup that really stays put all day is all in your prep and application.
Lessons Learnt From Being A Over-thinker & Worrier
When you're a chronic worrier and over-thinker it can be difficult to admit it, not only to yourself but to others as well. I've always known that I worry more than your average person but last year I realised how much it took up my day to day life. It's something that can make you feel truly alone even when you're not and can be incredibly hard to deal with. Today I wanted to talk about the important lessons I've learnt from being a serious over-thinker and worrier.

But it needs to wash well and last. In general high-end, workout wear is incredibly expensive and I simply don't have the funds for that so sportswear outlets are my go to and you can often find beautiful pieces for a lot less. So here is workout wear edit that meets all those needs.
