16 first world beauty problems you can relate to

In the grand scheme of world problems, our day-to-day beauty ones typically fall into the not-so-serious category.
Because, let’s face it, having to redo your make-up in the morning because you put on too much blush pales in comparison to the likes of Ebola, the conflict in the Middle East and even the flu that has your coworker bedridden.
But that’s not to say we can’t have a whinge every now and then, because sometimes it ain’t easy having to deal with the problems we do. So let’s take this opportunity to vent about our First World Beauty Problems.

Story of my life!! With weak nails it's hard enough to get them to a decent length, but to have one break!! Noooo!! And the same deal for discontinuing my favourite hair moisturiser, why do people do this?

I always tell someone if they have something in their teeth. You never know if they have a meeting or an important discussion coming up. Even a date!

Hahaha!! This is all sooooo true! Especially the nail breaking when you've been growing them all and you were so happy getting them just the way you wanted!!

Omg how true is that one on one-day-only sale! I hate those, yet I can't stay away from the stores when those happen >.> and my favourite facial cleanser disappeared from the face of the Earth, and my heart broke. I wish they would bring it back.
