Should we take Vitamin Supplements?

With an ever growing emphasis on health, and looking after our bodies, there are an array of products now on the market aimed to assist us on this quest.

I give vitamins to my little boy, just because he has turned into a fuss pot, and I know for sure that he isn't getting all his vitamins and minerals. Probably like most 4 year olds, to be fair.

But moving on to us grown-up people, ideally we should be getting all our vitamins and minerals from the foods we eat. Our body needs vitamins and minerals, they are essential nutrients that help our body work. But albeit, it can all be a little confusing.
Which ones do we need? What vitamins do what? What foods, provide us with what vitamins?

I aim in my life to get all my vitamins and minerals from foods. I love cooking, I love most foods, and I like to look after myself. But this isn't always the case. The colder months when colds and flus are doing the rounds, trips away, nights out, stress, change of circumstances, well anything that puts a chink in our chain,  our diet can suffer, and we can be the first to neglect ourselves and our health.

Enter vitamin supplements.

Beauty: Stila Perfect Me, Perfect Hue Eye Cheek Palette in Fair/Light

So, I am obsessed with palettes at the moment. First off, they are so easy to just lash in your bag when on the go or travelling. An array of different products housed in one place. Seriously, what could be better? 

 I had my eye on the Charlotte Tilbs Instant In a Look Palette. I visited the counter in Liverpool and honestly, I just wasn't blown away, nor could I muster up the urge to hand over £49 for it. Now I love the Tilbs, but this palette wasn't for me.

Then a couple of weeks later I seen the Stila Perfect Me, Perfect Hue Eye & Cheek Palette pop up on my Instagram and just fell in love. Everything about it, from the gold packaging, large mirror and all the shades particularly in the fair/light palette made me squeal. I made a quick order via the Stila website, and the palette was with me two days later. At the reasonable price of £28, you get 4 eyeshadows, a highlighter/eyeshadow and two blushes.

Oh and just look at the packaging, damn there are no words.
