Marks and Spencer have seriously upped their game in the beauty department over the past year, so listen up ladies I've picked the top 10 must haves from their gorgeous beauty hall. They have a great range of brands from high end to high street, some of them exclusive to M&S so here's my top picks for all you beauty lovers out there.
1. Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner
A liquid eyeliner is a must in every girls make up bag and this is most definitley one of my favourites. Now I'm no expert at winged liner unfortunately, but if you're going to try it out this will certainly make it easier. It has a fine marker like tip that makes it glide on really smoothly and is perfect for doing a thin precise line. As the name suggests it really does stay on all day, literally does not budge so once you've perfected the look it's there to stay!
2. Roger&Gallet Fleur d'Osmanthus Perfume
This scent is just so nice I can't even begin to describe it, even if you don't buy it please just go in a smell it-so gorgeous! Roger&Gallet have a really great range of scents and some fabulous bodycare products but without a doubt this is my top pick of theirs. It's a floral, citrus scent that is so fresh and not at all overpowering, yet it lasts so well. I'm telling you if you wear this you're going to get a lot of people wondering what that glorious scent is.
3.Nuxe Masque Creme Fraiche de Beaute
Nuxe is a beautiful french skincare brand with so many wonderful products to choose from. I love a good face mask and this is one is designed to provide 24 hour hydration to dry dehydrated skin and that's exactly what it does. I keep mine in the fridge so it feels extra cooling and soothing on application. Let the goodness sink in for about 10 minutes and enjoy the feeling of fabulously refreshed skin.
4. Pixi Glow Tonic
At the moment in Ireland M&S is the only store stocking Pixi products and they are very popular. So much so that I have yet to actually get my hands on this product, it is always sold out!! But get it on your list, it has a cult following among those in the beauty blogging world. It's an exfoliating toner that promises to brighten, tone and firm the skin, sounds good to me!
5.Glamglow
I couldn't pick just one product from this range because basically I want them all!! If you're into beauty at all you'll know how popular these masks are. I have tried the Thirstymud hydrating one and the Youthmud Tinglexfoliate one and I can confirm they are fab! M&S have the whole range and I think the next one I'm going to have to try is the Flashmud Brightening mask. Good news is they have the
small 15ml pots so you can give them a go before forking out for the full size.
6.Living Proof Perfect Hair Day Shampoo
A haircare brand co-owned by Jennifer Aniston, that's already enough to make buy it to be honest! Thank god they live up to their name and this stuff goes a long way in creating a perfect hair day. This particular formula smoothes out your hair, helps with detangling and overall gives your hair that shiny healthy look we all want. You can check out the whole range for all different hair types in M&S.
7.Amazing Cosmetics Concealer
We all need a bit of concealer now and then and this is a super popular one with a big following in the beauty industry. A little goes a long way and it covers everything from dark circles to blemishes. If you've tried every concealer going and still haven't found "the one" this could be it!
8.Butter London Nail Polishes
Nail polish is something you can never have enough of, in my opinion anyway! Butter London have a gorgeous range of colours and I particularly love the greyish blue shade called Ta-Ta and the pretty pink Teddy Girl. Even if you just go in for a browse it's worth it and you can check out some of their new shades for 2016.
9. Murad AHA/BHA Exfoliating Cleanser
Containing a trio of gentle exfoliating acids, the salicylic, lactic and glycolic acids work together to combat dullness and improve skin cell turnover. It's the perfect gentle exfoliator that I use about twice a week and it definitely helps brighten and plump up my skin.
10. Rituals Bodycare
Rituals products are luxurious but super affordable, perfect for a little bit of pampering.
I particularly love their body scrubs and shower gels. The sweet orange and cedar scrub is fab to get rid of any of that dull dry skin and as for the yogi flow foaming shower gel, just divine! Check out the full range of beautiful in store.
Firs up we have Clinique Sweet pots sugar scrub and lip balm. These super cute little pots, designed to look like macaroons, are one half lip scrub and one half tinted lip balm. Use the scrub to smooth your lips and the balm to keep them moisturised and conditioned with a little hint of colour. Available at clinique counters now, with 6 shades to choose from just think how cute these will be in your handbag and of course your next instagram!
Moving onto foundations there are two new launches I'm dying to get my hands on. The Laura Mercier Candleglow Soft Luminous foundation, phew that's a mouthful! I absolutely adore the Laura Mercier tinted moisturiser so I can't wait to try out this foundation. Designed to mimic the reflective glow of candlight this lightweight formula has tiny pearl mica embedded in it, to give your skin a fabulous radiant glow. With a blend of oils, purified water and vitamins C and E it also promises hydration and antioxidant protection, sounds right up my street. Look out for it launching this spring.
Staying with the theme of radiant skin we have the Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Foundation. Again it's a lightweight formula that aims to give a healthy glow, without any unwanted shine while also covering imperfections and giving that gorgeous flawless look we all want so much. And to top it all off it has SPF 25, get this on the top your wishlist. 
Finally onto nails and to celebrate it's 35th anniversary, Essie is bringing back 6 of it's most iconic shades that have been discontinued over the years. You can never have enough nail polish in my opinion and this collection has everything, a lovely nude, a bright red and even a glittery bronze one. It's a limited edition collection so don't miss out!
