Kids these days eh? Or is it parents these days? I don’t know. But I do know I am the kind of mum that uses glass bottles for their water, uses organic ingredients only and paraben free skincare wherever possible. I try and do my best for my kids and I am sure every parent […]
Snail extract, slime, secretions – whatever you want to call it is BIG business in Korean skincare and it’s totally beyond the point where people still go “ewwww” and is part and parcel of so many Korean ranges. I have a Mizon snail serum which I think is ok although I haven’t found it has […]
Years and years ago I tried a Tangle Teezer. It was back when there was only one option (black) and no fancy packaging. it was when my hair was extremely long and thick, and so hard to brush. I wasn’t sure that this brush could deal with my extremely knotty hair the way I wanted […]
The sun has got it’s hat on! Hip hip hip hooray! The sun is out in the UK which means lots of people walking around with no tops on, people sitting around in in appropriate places and lots of drunk people EVERYWHERE. But still. Brightness! Warm weather! So if you have babies it is imperative […]
I am very careful as to what products I use on the kids, and I always choose organic and as preservative free as possible (or should I say, irritant free) as both of my kids have had ezcema so I won’t just use any junk on them (thankfully they are clear now, but it’s pretty […]
When I was growing up one of my favourite things was a tatty old red sleeping bag my mum had owned for years – there were holes in it – but I just loved crawling in there and snuggling up. It’s amazing how kids find the simplest things entertaining! I was recently sent a luxurious […]
I have two babies. I get very little sleep. The more they sleep the more I get to rest but it’s not something you can necessarily control – therefore I do welcome natural and gentle ways of helping them fall asleep and stay asleep. This Works is well known for it’s Sleep Sprays, lovely lavender […]
Le Couvent des Minimes is a French brand which is a new discovery to me; the brand is related to Melvita and L’Occitane today, the Convent has an interesting history (read here) and today has been transformed into a Hotel & Spa. The products from the range are inspired by the love and generosity that […]
If you read this blog regularly, you’ll know that I am something of a kids skincare connoisseur – I’ve become obsessive in making sure that H uses good quality skincare that looks after his skin without tons of nasties. There is the other issue of cost of course, with daily baths, you can be replacing […]
I am a huge fan of organic skincare for H – I mean this child has a pretty amazing selection of skincare because I like to make sure I am using gentle products on his skin. I have realised after 2 years that some products are worth repurchasing and some just aren’t. Childs Farm is […]
About the time that I was expecting Baby H, I noticed a new range from Cussons called Mum & Me – a range of affordable skincare products for mum pre and post pregnancy, and also for babies. I won’t lie – I have stuck to organic products with high quality ingredients for Baby H wherever […]
I went for a Jinny Tattoo a few weeks ago, which the girls adored, so I bought a home glitter tattoo kit to play with from eBay (item here for £22 – free shipping and they sent it with EMS which is a bonus). So, here are some pics of the tattoos I did on […]
