Have you used a natural micellar water before? If not, are you curious? Until a few weeks ago, I’d never tried micellar water, never mind one I considered “natural”. I was so happy with my oil, balm, and gel cleansers, for years I completely overlooked micellar water. Micellar water contains compounds that are highly effective at removing dirt and oil to keep skin clear. Healthline Then one night I felt like cleansing without water. I couldn’t be bothered to turn the tap on and fill the sink to remove my makeup. How lazy is that? But we’ve all been there! I needed a waterless cleansing solution. I finally saw a use for micellar cleansing water! According to many of the brands offering micellar water, it brings the duel benefit of makeup removal and cleansing – without any water at all. But we all know that oil-based cleansers are the best…

Welcome back, beauties! Today it’s time to share my current loves from a long-time favourite natural beauty brand. Hello, Lavera skincare! Lavera is one of the first natural beauty brands I tried. I return to Lavera skincare again and again for certified organic products that are such great value for money! One of my favourite things about Lavera is that all their beauty products are certified organic by NaTrue. Everything is 100% natural and organic, and nothing is tested on animals. You won’t find any parabens, SLS, phthalates, mineral oils, or petrochemicals in Lavera beauty! The brand was founded by Thomas Haase in 1987. In founding Lavera, he discovered his lifelong dream of organic and natural beauty care for all. To me, nature is the only true way to beauty care. For me, lavera stands for true, natural beauty care – pure nature – my concept for beautiful skin. Thomas…

Welcome back, my beauties! I hope this post finds you well. Today I’m sharing my blogger pick for May, the wonderful Inika Phytofuse Renew Resveratrol Serum. It’s fair to say I collect skincare like philatelists collect stamps. So when I learned that Australian brand Inika had recently added the Phytofuse Renew skincare line to its already very highly esteemed line of makeup, I jumped at the chance to try it. Wait, Inika now do skincare? They certainly do! And it’s the first 100% natural, vegan and organic botanical skincare range enriched with Phytofuse Renew. This appears to be a proprietary extract developed by Inika based on rose of jericho, a “rehydrating desert resurrection plant”. Rose of Jericho is clinically known for its anti-pollution, protective, and healing properties. 5% proven active ingredients. 2X the potency found in mainstream skincare ranges. There are several products in the Inika Phytofuse Renew skincare line,…

Welcome back, my dear friend! Today I’m setting skincare aside to talk about the latest release from one of my favourite parenting authors. Introducing The Starting School Book by Sarah Ockwell-Smith! As new and clueless parents who gravitated towards natural birth, breastfeeding, bed sharing, and attachment parenting, Sarah Ockwell-Smith books and Gentle Parenting (GP) appealed to my style of parenting right away. Her books are a goldmine of parenting advice. She has four children herself, a degree in psychology, and has helped countless parents through her work as an antenatal teacher and doula, her books and online channels. A little of our backstory. My son, Jonah, turns 4 in June and was due to start at primary school in September. However, we have delayed his school start till September 2021, for several different reasons. The first of these is a speech and language delay his health visitor reported at his…
