Beauty product of the month

Brace yourselves ladies, I'm about to introduce you to a product that has the ability to transform your skin like no other toner can. If you haven't already heard of pixi glow tonic, then here it is. Avid beauty fanatics/ bloggers are more than familiar with this toner. 

An exfoliating toner which leaves you with glowing skin with regular use, need I say anymore. I've even had makeup-free days since I've been using the toner regularly, thanks to my sis for treating me to yet another pixi product.

I know the title of this post suggests that it is my product of the month, the results suggest that I will be using this more often as I am very impressed to say the least. 

At £18.00 it's slightly more expensive than other toners on the market but definitely worth it. Once you see the improvement in your skin you'll wish you had discovered it sooner.

Get yourself some pixi glowing skin online (pixibeauty.co.uk) or visit their lovely boutique on Carnaby Street. 

Happy beautifying bloggers!

I'm The Mum Who....

Thank you to firstooth for nominating me to write a post titled 'I am the Mum who...'

So here it is, dedicated to my little boy who in the space of 10 months has turned the least maternal person into the most devoting mum.

I am the mum who:

• Said I wouldn't spoil you, and then I took you to Toni and Guy for your haircut when you were just a few months old.

• Wasn't prepared for motherhood in the slightest, and now I can't imagine my life before I became a mum. 

• Cooks all your meals from scratch because I don't want to feed your jars 

• Cried with you when you had colic and were teething 

• Speaks to you when we are out, and people think I'm talking to myself, oops. 

• Is battling this separation anxiety so that we are both ok when I go back to work

• Has become a rubbish wife/sister/daughter/Aunty because I want to be the best mother

• Misses having a spotless house 

• Wondered what I did with all my time before you came along...?

• Forget to eat because I have 101 things to do that are more important 

• Is still baffled as to how a tiny being can impact our lives so much. You can't even speak yet, how do you influence my daily activities you little gremlin! 

• Hope you fulfill your wildest dreams, and even some of mine that I probably won't get around to fulfilling! (No pressure) 

• Finally understands what unconditional love is.

Most importantly, I'm the mum who now appreciates what my parents went through whilst bringing up me and my siblings. I now understand that when my rents say that parents only want what's best for their children, they actually mean it! 

They Grow So Fast

I saw this post on Facebook a while ago and it makes me feel quite emotional. 

I'm glad I held my boy more than people thought I should. Rocked him, sang to him, cuddled him some more. 

Now at ten months, he doesn't need to be held as much- he's far too independent for that. It's all about crawling about, climbing things and discovering everything in his stride now. You know they are no longer a little baby wen they can hold their bottle, feed themselves and crawl away when it's nappy changing time. 

Forget what everyone says. Make the most of every second with your baby while they are still a baby. As the quote says: he is only a baby for just a while.

Coming Soon: Naked Smoky Eye

I need this in my life! As a make-up enthusiast and Naked Palette fan, I cannot wait for the Smoky Eye palette to be released. I've been experimenting with my current Naked Palette's and my Sleek palette to create various smoky eye looks. I was never a huge fan of smoky eye, I have the darkest circles under my eyes so dark eye shadows didn't really compliment me very well. After a lot of makeup experimenting I have found a few looks that work for me, so it's perfect timing Urban Decay to launch yet another of my favourite eyeshadow palette, in smoky eye shades.

I can't wait to get my hands on one of these! Released July 8th 2015!
