How to look like a fully-functioning woman? The odds are against us BUT…'tis the season of miracles after all. So, Annabel has a rummage through her drawers to put together a beauty box selection of old favourites and new wonders to try and fix our faces. And bodies. And spirits. Emilie falls in love with Sun Bum’s Glow 30. We get transported back to our late 20s by REN’s Moroccan Rose Otto, and find that every woman needs a bit of Clarins, Charlotte Tilbury and Glossier in her arsenal. There’s budget beauty, a bust-the-bank mascara, a lot of wisdom (Annabel) and some idiocy (Emilie). Go from sickly, consumptive Victorian child to fully functioning woman in a flash…Plus if you head to Instagram (@themidult) we’re running a competition…
