When To Chuck Your Makeup

Nowadays, people are more and more conciencious over keeping their makeup in tip top condition.
You can wash brushes, but what about your products? When do they need replaced?
Let's discover the horrifying truth...Or shall we?


Mascara - 3 Months
Unfortunately your Dior show mascara won't seem so worth the price tag after all if you don't even get time to finish the bottle! However, keep your Mascara longer than 3 months and you run the risk of some nasty eye infections #notcute

Eyeliner-3 Months
Now this goes for all liquid and gel liners. Sorry to break it to you, these don't last long enough to master the perfect cat eye wing, sigh.

Pencil eyeliner-2 years
2 Years? I hear you asking.Yes.Two.Whole.Years.
Life is not so bad anymore...

Lip Gloss- 18-24 months
Personally, I think this is really reasonable, because for me I can get through tubes of The Balm lip gloss like nobody's business.

Lipstick and Lip liner-1 Year
Charlotte Tilbury is now in sight!

Concealers-12-18 months
I get through a tube of concealer in a month (If my skin decides to be a total bully....ughhh)
So this is not a problem

Cream compact foundation-18 months
Lovely Jubbly.

Oil-Free Foundation -1 Year
Still going strong.

Cream Shadows and Blushers - 12-18 Months
Happy Days

Powders (Blusher, Bronzer, Shadow etc.) -2 Years

I hope this Guide helps.
Lots Of Love,

Lazy Sunday Skincare

Sunday is the best day to boost my skin. I have far more time and patience than I would have mid-week. This means I can take more time to cleanse and care for my skin. I love how at the end of the week I can relax and take time to do a skin care routine, or choose to switch it up, depending on how the previous week has left my skin! I start the morning off with a long hot shower, this opens up my pores (this is ideal if you want to prevent blocked pores and give them a good cleanse!) I hop out the shower and  cleanse my skin with the Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish. This product is absolutely fantastic, and has twelve awards to prove it! I use this with the pure cotton cloth. This product works in a 2 phrase process. Phase 1 is the Cleanse, where you massage this onto dry skin, working in a circular motion. Phase 2 is the Polish and uses the damp cloth to wipe off the cream. Afterwards, lightly pat skin dry with a towel. This cleanser contains Chamomile an...
