I’m learning the beauty basics all over again and taking time to focus on my face and body, sharing with you my favourite trends, products and tricks.
Last Saturday morning I had been invited to pop into my local Boots store in Queensgate to meet with Nisha in the Beauty Department who wanted to tell me about a few of their latest ‘must-have’ beauty treats. Whilst I was waiting for Nisha to pop down from her office I got chatting to Stuart … Read more
If you have children of school age then you are bound to have come into contact with head lice at some point or another. I think we managed to avoid the dreaded little mites for the first two years of primary school with Little Bean and then around the time that I dropped my guard … Read more
It’s funny how certain smells stay with you isn’t it. When I was a child my Mum used to wash my hair with Apple Scented shampoo and I can still smell it to this day. Just the faintest waft of an apple scent and I will be transported back to my Mum washing my hair … Read more

I wish someone had told me before I had my babies what would happen to my hair post-birth. I remember how during my pregnancy with Little Bean, I felt like one of those ladies you see in the shampoo adverts with thick, glossy and bouncy hair. It felt amazing and I loved it. But a … Read more
Nothing beats the feeling of babysoft skin, I remember so well with each of my Beans stroking their tiny feet, legs and hands whilst breastfeeding, marvelling at how perfect their skin felt. Bit of an odd one, but I particularly loved their little little feet and knees because they hadn’t yet been toughened up from … Read more
I have been de-fuzzing myself for as long as I care to remember, being a tactile person I like ‘smooth’! I began shaving when I was a teenager and then in my 20’s I moved onto epilation after a recommendation from a friend and I haven’t looked back. My previous epilator was only a very … Read more
