We didn’t appreciate quite how spa-like the hairdressers was until we had kids. It’s basically the only place where you can sit uninterrupted while someone brings you tea (and biscuits), where you can’t do anything even if you wanted to as you have a...

So, we weren’t sure if we would do this post as we didn’t want to alienate the non-pregnant readers among you but then we were asked SO MANY time to do a post on our pregnancy essentials that we thought we’d jot it all down, and then even if...

You have a moisturiser, right? I mean, I hope you have a moisturiser (please say you do) because if not, what are you putting on your face in the day?! But do you also have a specific night formula? Fingers crossed you do but if not, here’s why you need to...

So, last week we shared with you how we do our 3-step stay-put make-up base (primer, concealer, foundation) – if you missed it, click here to watch. This week we’re bringing you the Easy Eye Tutorial.We often get asked how we do our eyeliner and what we...

Remember those evenings BC (thats, Before Child) when you used to get ready for a big night out with your girls; music on, glasses of rose flowing, make-up spilling everywhere and swapping application tips. How much fun were they?? These days we’re more likely...

We’re sure if you’re reading this that you are well aware that we met on Instagram. Gemma didn’t do NTC and Sam didn’t really meet anyone she had much in common with. When our babes were about 6 (Belle) and 8 months (Leo) we got chatting on...

Whether your baby only naps for 20 minutes and you need to get your act together quickly, or you’re back and work and we’re meant to be at a board meeting 10 minutes ago but your spin class ran late, we’ve got you covered. When we became mums, our...

Today we thought that we’d do something a little different and give you a tour of our bathrooms. Sam has recently had a new bathroom fitted and has been spending lots of time in there sorting through her (many) products and Gemma has been spending lots of time...

We get it. Some mornings you just can’t be arsed. You feel knackered, you look knackered, your hair is dirty with no time to wash it and all that’s on your agenda is to get to Waitrose and back without a tantrum on your hands. But these are the days that...

It’s officially summer time which means it’s time to stop only doing "the bits on show" and it’s time to start shaving everywhere – legs, bikini lines, underarms, jeeez, it takes time in the shower that we just don’t have....

OK, so I’ve loved being blonde for the last six months but JEEZ is it time consuming. I’m all for a bit of root-age going on but when it involves a trip to the salon every 3-4 weeks to keep them under control it’s a bit much for me. I’m the...

Lipstick is 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 instantly put together and like you’ve taken 20 minutes over your appearance – when in...

In the summer we automatically expect our hair to transform into beachy, sunkissed, tousled waves. But the reality is that living in the city in the summer can really play havoc with your hair. The combination of sun, pollution, and heat means that your hair colour...

It’s the strangest thing. We all know we must wear it. We all do wear it. Yet every single summer, as soon as the sun comes out, we all panic. What factor should we wear? How often should we apply it? What should I use on my kids?!A few weeks ago we asked you to...

If you follow us on Instastories, you’ll know that we are both partial to a face mask. And if you ever read Stylist magazine, you’ll know that I’ve recently written in there that I do a face mask every night. Why? Well, it’s simple. Face masks...
