Over the course of 2022, I've tried and tested dozens of beauty products for the Manchester Evening News - some better than others, and some I've even gone on to repurchase time and time again. I like to think myself as your friendly, honest beauty guru, with friends and family often asking for recommendations - especially at this time of year.
Many beauty retailers are gearing up for the biggest sale event of the year - Black Friday - with sales already live on a number of sites.
And so, there's never been a better time to top up your cosmetics kit, snap up some discounted gift sets, or sort yourself out with stocking fillers that will put a huge smile on the face of the recipent.
