It’s officially winter and you’re a mum (y’know, in case you forgot) so your skin is inevitably glow-less, knackered, dull (sorry) and tan from the summer will have all but drained from your face. But here’s the thing, don’t reach for the...
We’re having a total lipstick moment as you can tell from our Instagram but we know that it’s a tricky beauty subject to master. It’s taken us both 32 years to get to grip with it but we promise, there’s nothing like it for making you look...
We’ve really been embracing lipstick this Autumn. There’s honestly nothing better when it comes to detracting from tired eyes and looking like you’ve made a bit of an effort when you haven’t. If you think that lipstick isn’t for you, that...
The average mum gets just 17 minutes to herself A DAY! Written down it sounds mental but it’s actually not surprising. Every once in a while you need some time off. When life all gets a bit too much, we like to lock the bathroom door and treat ourselves to some...
When it’s your job to test every single beauty product in the world, you quickly learn what’s ground-breaking and whats merely marketing hype *ahem* Kylie Jenner Lip Kit – do not waste your money.The beauty products that make it past my desk, into my bag...
I don’t know about you but my default mood these days is ‘knackered’. I need at least two coffees before 10am to get me going and then slowly drop-feed the caffeine throughout the day. If someone could just hook me up to an IV of the good stuff,...
With new season fashion comes a whole host of autumn-appropriate beauty trends and, while catwalk looks aren’t always known for being wearable, we can promise you one is much easier than it looks. The best thing about beauty is that you can try something new without...
Welcome to part two of our ‘Mum Yoga’ class. Today we’re talking tired legs. It’s crazy the amount of walking you do when you have a baby. I remember going on three hour walks when Leo was a baby because it was the only way to get him to fall...
Here at This Is Mothership, we’re fully-fledged members of the Fake Tan Fan Club. It’s the one thing that we’ve both found works to make us feel better and look healthier, even when we’re surviving on four hours sleep and an IV drip-worth of...
If yours is anything like mine, the expensive shampoos and bath oils have been removed from the sides and replaced with brightly coloured bottles of bubble bath and an ever-growing troop of plastic bath toys that seem to multiply by the moment.Apparently women only...
Pre-Leo I was pretty fit. I used to nail Barry’s Bootcamp 3x a week with a little bit of Psycle thrown in before work. But that was nothing compared to motherhood. My arms ached from all of the pram pushing, my calves hurt from all of the pavement pounding and...
So many people use the same foundation brush for months or years and NEVER wash it. A few of my friends have been complaining about how annoyingly spotty their skin is. When I asked about the last time they washed their make-up brushes, they looked at me blankly....
Since This is Mothership was born, we’ve both learnt an awful lot.I’ve picked up a few fashion tips from Gemma (high-waisted jeans are SO much more flattering, who knew?!) and I’ve been rubbing off on her in the beauty department. Skincare can be...
Nothing beats the look, feel and lasting power of a gel-mani but because we can’t always get to an appointment these days – and because it’s a good idea to give your nails a break from them at least once every two months – you need an at-home...
In the years BC (Before Child), I prided myself on my freshly manicured nails. A perk of the job, I’d rarely go a few weeks without a file, buff and slick of the latest polish. When I was heavily pregnant and struggling to even fit into maternity clothes, a glossy...
![This is a real (reel) PSA: *sound on* 📡 Send this to a friend who likes nice coats and needs reminding to do their pelvic floors 👌🏻#psa #pelvicfloor
*PSA means Public Service Annoucement incase you’re wondering - we discovered in a meeting yesterday that some people find these acronyms we use a bit confusing 😂 IYKYK
