Green People Nordic Roots Apple Complex Moisturiser & Marine Facial Oil Review

Welcome back, skincare lover! Today’s share shines the spotlight, once again, on the wonderful Green People Nordic Roots line! And in this post I’m sharing my thoughts on two products – the juicy Apple Complex Moisturiser and the divine Marine Facial Oil. Back in September 2020, I tried this line for the first time when I reviewed the Hyaluronic Booster Serum, via the LoveLula Accredited Blogger scheme. It goes without saying I absolutely adore this serum and so I had high hopes for the rest of the line, too. I’ve been a huge fan of Green People for many years. They were one of the brands who inspired me to turn to cleaner beauty products. So I was delighted to hear from Green People, who asked if I’d like to try other products from the Nordic Roots range. What is Nordic Roots? This pared back, yet super effective skincare line…

Dr Barbara Sturm Anti-Hair Fall Scalp Serum Review

Welcome back, my dear! Today’s review features the superb Dr Barbara Sturm Anti-Hair Fall Scalp Serum! This lightweight hair serum is a real workhorse. It aims to reduce hair loss, thicken weak hair, and soothe a sensitive scalp. As a beauty blogger, sometimes an offer comes along that I simply cannot refuse. So it was when I heard from online store Skinstation, who asked if I’d like to try a beauty product from their range of results-driven skin- and hair-care. Naturally, I jumped at the chance. Who is Skinstation? Skinstation is a specialist online luxury skincare boutique. The store specialises in results-driven skincare, and only carries products subject to rigorous research and development. The store features products from superheroes such as Obagi, Skinceuticals, Dr Levy Switzerland, and of course, Dr Barbara Sturm.

Earths Secret Thrive Helps Busy Mums Boost Energy

Welcome back, dear friend! Today I’m sharing my thoughts on Earths Secret Thrive supplement. This super charged turmeric supplement aims to increase energy levels, support the immune system, reduce inflammation, improve digestion and provide a source of potent antioxidants. And let me tell you, I need all the help I can get! Life as a mum is so rewarding, but often times utterly exhausting! With one child at school, one in school nursery for 2 hours a day, and a teething 9 month old baby – I need all the energy I can muster. Personally, the last few months have been a huge challenge. Not only am I managing three kids, we moved house too. So you can imagine my curiosity when Earths Secret approached me to try their range of supplements aimed at improving our wellbeing and enhancing our everyday lives. Who are Earths Secret? Science-based supplements that work…

Organyc Cotton Products For Mum & Baby Care

Welcome back, my friend! Today’s post is all about the cotton products I’ve been using from Organyc. These products are made with 100% certified organic cotton. They take care of delicate skin in so many ways – think beauty, feminine, maternity, and baby care. Organyc products are naturally absorbent, renewable, and sustainable. The brand promises a comfortable and breathable experience that’s reassuringly free from plastics, dyes, perfumes, pesticides, phthalates, super absorbent polymers, and wood pulp. While it is true that single use cotton products are not the most sustainable option to us, they make a great option when we’re short on time, travelling, or have a new baby and need simplicity and convenience. Lydia and I are having great fun trying out a selection of products from their range, including cotton wool balls, baby wipes, intimate wipes, beauty round pads, and cotton buds. Shall we learn more about them now?…

Be a curious cat: how to create a life that delights

“Be a curious cat: how to create a life that delights” is a collaborative post. People often associate curiosity with children, daydreaming, or brash behaviour. However, this trait has the potential to influence your outlook on life in a very practical, tangible way. Staying curious about the world means staying open to possibility, and choosing to see potential where others see a void. Curiosity connects us to a deeper sense of wonderment within ourselves, often sparking gratitude and appreciation along the way. It also keeps us sharp, open-minded, and ready to explore uncharted territories. Some studies even suggest that curiosity is important for long-term cognitive development. Adopting a mindset of curiosity is one of the best ways to create a life that delights, inspires, and excites—whether you’re a child or a fully grown adult. Plus, it’s one of the few areas of expertise your children probably understand better than you…
