PRODUCT REVIEW: HOW TO KEEP HANDS SOFT AND YOUNGER LOOKING WITH ENBACCI SKINCARE

Image
I have all days been addicted to hand creams, as I simply don’t like the feeling of dry hands, and during winter it gets even worse. And it is super easy to forget looking after the hands, and we really should as they are one of the first areas to show signs of ageing. So I love that Enbacci has whole collection dedicated to keeping the hands softer, and more beautiful and younger looking.  The Enbacci Nourishing Hand Wash* with coconut oil and glycerine, to repair damaged skin cells, restore hydration and purify and disinfect the skin from harmful surface bacteria caused by environmental pollutants. Yet at the same time, it doesn’t dry out the hands, but leave them feeling clean, soft and smooth. I love that it has a fresh fruity scent too, it smells absolutely amazing. The Enbacci Brightening Hand & Nail Cream* contains aloe, shea butter, coconut oil and sweet almond oil, vitamin A and E, and it promises to help brighten sun and age spots and reduce wrinkles and fine lines, w

And we have always loved the products from Smash Enterprises. And now they’ve got a new range out, which is available exclusively from Woolworths. Actually, there are two ranges, a pink/purple unicorn range for the girls, and a blue/turquoise dinosaur one for the boys, which I’ll talk about below.  The range includes, the Bento Bite Lunch Box* , which has so many features, including a removable inner tray (1100ml), with 6 deep compartments for a variety of food, fruit and snacks of all sizes. It also comes with a snack pot (85ml) that is leak proof, so perfect for yoghurts, dips and juicy fruits. Underneath the tray, it has a skinny ice brick that helps keep lunches cool. It is removable so it can go in the freezer overnight, which I really like. The sealed lid helps prevent spills to keep the food fresh. It also has a child friendly

PRODUCT REVIEW: A.H. BEARD RESTON SLEEP TRACKER TO HELP UNLOCK THE SECRETS TO A BETTER SLEEP

We all know that a good nights sleep is essential to good health. But having two little kids is not exactly the best thing for getting a good nights sleep. While we are super lucky, that unless our kids are sick, they are actually both extremely good sleepers, rarely waking up, yelling our, never coming in to us in the middle of the night, but that said, it seems that ever since they came into this world, I have not slept as soundly as I used to, always keeping an eye and ear out.  Understand how you sleep at night, is according to A.H. Beard the first step to unlocking the secrets to better sleep. By monitoring how you sleep, you can learn how much sleep you are really getting, and discover which of your lifestyle habits may be having a negative effect on your sleep.  The A.H.

My two little boys have unfortunately both got quite sensitive skin, and for some reason, it always tend to get worse during the colder winter months. Finding the right skincare products for them can be very hard as there are so many different kids products on the shelves. But with their skin sensitivity, I really have to think about what I select for them. Lately we’ve been enjoying some products from CocoBare Baby*..
