My skincare favourites
11 Sep
My main rule when it comes beauty is always consider your skin type What works on someone with dry skin won't necessarily have the same effect if you have combination, or oily skin, for example. I find moisturisers and oils specifically to either work for me, or rea ... Read More
MY SKINCARE SECRETS
8 Jan
First up cleanse, tone and moisturise. I have always been a Clarins girl, but recently I switched skincare to Jurlique. My love affair with Jurlique began on a trip to Australia about five years ago, where I was introduced to rose water mist. I have been using it ever since, a bottle e ... Read More

VALENTINE, OR VALENTINO?
9 Feb
For me there is nothing more un-romantic than a Valentines date-night. Tables of two, set menu's and prosecco are not top of my list. But I will never say no to gifts. A thoughtful present topped off with yummy food, fireside snuggles and a delicious bottle of red. Now that's true love. (Kids in bed, on time, and sleeping through permitting...)
Alternatively, who needs a Valentine, Valentino will do!

MINI SCENTS
9 Dec
I never really took much notice of baby-perfumes before, so I might be wrong in saying this, but it seems like a lot more brands are getting on the bandwagon. This season there seem to be a lot of new scent releases aimed at babies and little ones? There are the established favourites, Bonpoint and Burberry have had their own mini-scents for a while, but now you can get it pretty much everywhe ... Read More

KEEPING BUSY
13 Mar
Yesterday I heading into London for some beauty treatments with London Mother's Club at the Cowshed Spa in Selfridges. It was so nice to be treated to a little bit of pampering. My pedicure included an extremely relaxing neck, shoulder and head massage, as well as a foot and leg massage. Cowshed offer a whole range of treatments as well as specifically tailored mum-to-be packages, so well worth a v ... Read More

HEAVENLY SCENTS
21 Jan
Made-to-order heavenly scents created by New York perfume laboratory Le Labo are simply delicious. Choose your smell, wait whilst it is lovingly formulated by hand and then presented to you in a simplistic signature bottle, dated and named. Each of their ten scents are totally unique but equally as divine. It's pretty hard to choose a favourite, but I think it may have to be either Santal or Patchouli. Bergamote is gorgeous too!
Le Labo is not your average mass produced perfume, so you can't get your hands on a bottle just like t ... Read More
