We’re not suggesting a 7-step routine, but hear us out. Without a baby skincare routine, your…
Welcome back, my friend! Adults and children alike – winter brings out the worst in our skin. Whether it’s chapped lips, dry hands, or scaly skin on the face, arms, and legs. The reasons are simple – colder, drier air, and more time indoors in a heated environment. But with some tweaks to your routine and a switch of products, you absolutely can keep your family’s skin in good condition this winter. So without further ado, let’s look at winter skincare for your whole family! Protect hands with gloves this winter Let’s kick off this list by focusing on the grown ups! Parents’ hands work so hard. Whether it’s the constant hand washing, pushing the pushchair, or unavoidable daily exposure on the school run. Protect your hands and buy some good quality gloves. I use leather gloves for driving and pushing the pushchair as they grip so well and my…
Hello, my beautiful friend! And welcome to my May 2022 natural beauty empties. I’m writing this a bit ahead of time as we’re moving in the last week of May. And I took my photographs hurriedly amongst all the clutter and chaos of our house move. In May, I used up some very lovely products, and lots of them, including a soothing oat and charcoal cream, coconut deodorant, olive oil lipstick, and more. I can’t wait to share them with you, so let’s dive right in! May 2022 natural beauty empties Zoe Bee Charcoal & Oat Cream Zoe Bee Charcoal & Oat Cream helps Lydia’s skin so much!

Welcome back, my dear! I’m so excited to tell you about the family skincare for winter I picked up a few weeks ago. At 3 months postpartum, and with the delicate skin of 3 little ones to care for, I’m always on the lookout for clean and kind skincare that can be shared between us all. And especially so in the colder months, when it’s all the more important to care for our skin and protect it from the cold and the wind. And by the way, if you’re interested in learning about winter skincare for your family or how to protect your baby’s skin in winter, do take a look at my winter skin care guides. Today, I’m sharing my views on the comprehensive Lyonsleaf Mum & Baby Skincare Survival Kit, fragrant Skinlove Baby Gelified Rescue Oil, healing Silvan Skincare Mama’s Balm, beautiful Alteya Calming Aromatic Mist, and Good…
It’s time for my July 2019 natural beauty empties! I do love sharing my empties. There’s something so satisfying about finishing a natural beauty product to the last drop. I love recapping it all, and I hope you might find something you like amongst the treasure trove of items. I’ve used up quite a few products this month. I had a huge sort out of my stash which was very rewarding. We also bought new bathroom storage, which prompted a resurfacing of some close-to-empty products to finish up. My favourite product this month is a special skin treatment called bakuchiol. It’s an amazing replacement for retinol that’s safer for mamas who are pregnant or breastfeeding. There’s also a luscious balm, rose water, adult and kids toothpaste, epsom salts, face mask powder, body lotion, and face cream and mineral powder samples. I hope you enjoy my empties, and if you have…
Welcome back, my friend! Wondering what’s essential in the postpartum period? Take the guesswork out of your post-pregnancy planning – here are the postpartum essentials you’ll want to stash at home and pack in your hospital bag in the UK. As an experienced mum of four children, I love sharing what worked for me postnatally. I took so much needless stuff to hospital with my first child – I wish I knew then, what I know now! The postpartum period is such a beautiful and special time. But it can be overwhelming, too – especially as a first time mum. After all, not only have you just given birth – whether vaginally or via c-section, you’re experiencing huge physical changes too. A drop in hormones often leads to mood swings – baby blues are a real thing! And not to mention – you now have a brand new little one…
We got back off holiday and I found my LoveLula May 2018 Beauty Box had been delivered to a neighbour. Since boarding the plane home I was looking forward to opening it! My May box contains 5 natural skincare and beauty products, 4 of which are full size. The LoveLula May 2018 Beauty Box is worth over £46, but costs just £13.95 as a subscriber. Let’s take a look at what’s inside this month’s box. Disclosure: I received the LoveLula May 2018 Beauty Box to review by LoveLula, but my opinions are honest and my own. Alteya Organics Bulgarian Rose Water I use rose water everyday, so I was really pleased to find this beautiful rose water in my LoveLula box. This is my first time using an Alteya product – the brand creates some amazing botanical products. LoveLula stock several different types of Alteya rose water, including a gorgeous white…
This post will help you choose the best natural beauty Christmas gifts for yourself or your loved ones. I would absolutely love to receive any of these fantastic natural beauty gifts! That’s because on Christmas morning, you can find me under the Christmas tree, smelling the outside of presents trying to find “the smellies” gift. I eagerly open it, only to be disappointed. It’s a beauty product I definitely wouldn’t use because it contains unhealthy ingredients. Sigh. It’s disheartening isn’t it? As happy as I am to receive a lovely gift, I feel so strongly about natural skincare I just can’t go back to using mainstream toiletries from big brands. I donate unwanted Christmas gifts to my favourite charity, as there will always be someone who does use these products and donating them ensures they don’t get wasted. Without further ado, let’s dive straight into my pick of natural beauty…
