Gemma and I spent the weekend together and while I was at her house, I noticed some pictures of her heavily pregnant with Belle. I hadn’t seen these before because we weren’t friends back then (I know, can you believe that?!) so we obviously started...
Last weeks post proved so popular that we decided to troubleshoot another one of your top pregnancy beauty questions.Regular readers will be aware that US + FAKE TAN = LONG AND HAPPY RELATIONSHIP (I mean, you can read all about our fake tan obsession here, here and...
I was in Madrid on a hen this weekend and between the sangria and salsa dancing, mostly the conversation turned to beauty. When you get a group of 18 girls together, the beauty secrets swapped are amazing. I love nothing more than snooping inside peoples make-up bags,...
As soon as the weather heats up, we all panic. All you have in the house is that old suncream from last year and you’re not sure if it’s past its use by date. And we know that loads of you are off on holiday soon too. With that in mind today we’re...
HI, it’s Gemma! Yep, I know beauty is Sam’s domain but I’m taking it over for one week (special treat, ha!) because since I’ve met Sam I have turned from a beauty novice (I owned 5 beauty products) into someone who owns a radiance boosting...
We get a lot of comments on our brows and yeah, we have to admit it, our brow game is kinda strong. But we had good brow mentors; both of our mama’s taught us when we were young to never over-pluck – and aside from a couple of minor incidents at...
Last week we hosted a make-up masterclass at the Bobbi Brown boutique in Covent Garden. We had a fabulous evening meeting some of you lovely mama’s, drinking prosecco and playing with make-up while the dads we’re on baby duty. Hannah Martin, Senior Pro...
A flick of black eyeliner is our signature look. We both feel totally naked without it and have been wearing it for years so we pretty much have it down to a fine art. These days we’re even able to do it with a babe balanced on our knee. Sam’s tried and...
Oh, dry shampoo. You are the saviour to tired, rushed women everywhere. A new-mum essential that we continue to use well into the working-mum stage because, WHO HAS THE TIME?! But hereβs the thing: dry shampoo isn’t that straightforward to use. They don’t...
Um, it’s Valentines Day next week. Which means it’s V-Wknd in a few days. And while V-Day doesn’t have any sort of significance in our life these days (as we aren’t 18 year olds harbouring major crushes for boys that don’t know we exist)...
The other week we shared our hair regimes with you on here. We both have such different hair types but the one thing that we both have in common is that we need our hair products to give really impressive results, quickly. And last. We don’t want volume that...
Sometimes it feels bloody impossible to get out of the door. You know those (rare) nights that you do go out and you suddenly need to put a full face of make-up on while bath time is happening. You’re left choosing between reading a bedtime story and remembering...
To our surprise in the last couple of months we’ve received quite a few emails asking us about our hair routines. We find this quite funny as when it comes to our hair, both of us have a really rather low maintenance regime (well, one of us more so than the...
Mama’s listen up. We know that you have like, zero spare minutes in the day. We know that as soon as the kids are in bed you pretty much want to just flop onto the sofa, mindlessly instascroll and watch a bit of CBB (if you can stay up ’til 9pm) BUT how...
We’ve both got it, our friends have had it so chances are that you’ve got it too. In fact, we know you do because you’ve told us. It’s one of your biggest beauty problems. So I thought that today I’d cover post-pregnancy hair...
