  1. I'm actually surprised foundation and powder last that long but I am also surprised at how little time lipstick keeps - I don't like that!

  3. I'm one of those people who forgets about something then loves it a year later so I can't say I will ever be sticking to this, especially when things are so expensive. I've never actually had any problems with decent make up products going 'off' so hopefully I'll be alright x

  5. I would never get rid of my lipsticks after 12-18 months! Especially all my mac lipsticks. I don't use them enough so it would be like throwing away money. Thanks for sending your link to me via the bbloggers chat. xx
