Hi, It is all about the holiday preparation now. The countdown has begun. I have calculated that I need to do a work-out pretty much every day for the next three months to have any hope of squeezing into last years tankini. I also have a planner from an arguably obsessive friend which sets out [...]
About Louise
Louise started writing her blog Yummy Mummy? Really? after becoming a mum and discovering that it was harder than ever to keep looking yummy. Louise is a self-confessed late starter when it comes to beauty treatments and only started wearing make-up 5 years ago after the birth of her first daughter. She blogs both about her attempts to stay looking yummy; with posts on everything from electrolysis to home work-outs; and what she’s learnt as a mummy; from how to change a nappy, what kit you need to feed on the go, and how to avoid toddler tantrums!Author Louise
Beauty Round-up: A fresh start?
I woke up today and realised, with something resembling surprise, that it’s already the 14th March. In a very confusing time-travel manner it will actually be the 15th March when you read this, meaning that we have, in a manner of sorts, time-travelled to communicate with each other. It’s a HUGE pity that I can’t [...]
Beauty Round-up: More moisturiser anyone?
It’s still snowing and I’m fed up with it now. Why do I care about the weather? It’s doing horrendous things to my skin. My lips are mimicking the Grand Canyon in texture, my hands are soaking up hand cream like sponges soak up water and my cheeks are pink from having the heating on [...]
Beauty Round-up: Winter beauty discoveries
This month the BritMums bloggers are all about the moisturiser. Not surprising given the drop in temperature seen in Britain since Christmas. It was apparently -10 degrees Celsius last night – *shiver*. So read on for the best beauty posts that have graced my screen this month on the best moisturisers (and some other products [...]
The Beauty Round-up: 10 beauty tips to start the New Year
Did I get new beauty products for Christmas? Of course I did! I have myself an excellent manicure set with a brilliant selection of 20 different coloured nail varnishes and I was lucky enough to also get some new smellies to try; a Botanics gift set, a range I’ve been meaning to try for [...]
Beauty Round-up: PANIC! I need more time
The time for this month’s beauty round-up has crept up on me ninja-like with the greatest of stealth and noiseless slippers. Regular readers of my blog, or more likely my irratic and irregular tweets, will know that I started a new job last week. Not only is it a new job, but it is [...]
Beauty Round-up: Shedding the pounds for Christmas
We may not be in school anymore, but September still brings with it an energy and impetus to get things done. This month is all about shedding the pounds. No, not because we are spending it all on Christmas presents already (though I know you are), no, I mean pounds in weight. I’ve followed [...]
Beauty round-up: Remember when you had time for pampering?
Hi! I am, in the words of an increasingly northern sounding Midlander, right excited to be bringing you the first Beauty round-up! I am such a clueless geek when it comes to make-up, hair, skin care etc etc etc. I didn’t wear make-up AT ALL until I returned to work after my first maternity [...]
