There’s nothing quite like the appearance of that fiery orb in the sky to get us buffing and buttering the bejaysus out of our pelt, as if to scrub the winter neglect right off it! I’ve been putting a number of summer body products through their paces these past couple of months, and I’ve...
I know we bang on about SPF a lot around these parts, and the twitterverse has really picked up the SPF pandering in recent years. Which is bloddy brilliant as far as I’m concerned. However something that’s not really said, is how expensive sun protection actually is. We’re talking...
We have the season, but we don’t quite have the weather for seaside excursions yet. As a matter of fact, I put the heating on yesterday. Yeah, can’t see myself stripping off for a dunk any time soon! In saying that though, I’ve been absolutely loving a few products lately and I only...
* Ok, so these photos definitely weren’t taken at my home. If only. They were taken in the Fota Island Resort during our last weekend away. Though the resort has a very luxurious Spa, we packed our days with so many activities that I didn’t have time to visit it. Instead while in Cork...

She ruined her body to bring you into the world, the least you can do is put a bit of thought into a gift for her 😛 Luckily Lush have you covered with gorgeous ready wrapped gifts bursting with treats, never mind their always awesomely ethical practices. Being a vegetarian mummy to two adorable bunnies,...
Hubble bubble toil and trouble, fire burn and cauldron bath bubble! With the lashing rain and the roaring wind comes the timely return of our Blissful Bathing series, and what better way to start than with one of Lush‘s limited editions for Hallowe’en. Let The Enchanter cast its spell…...
Despite being of the oily skinned variety, and thinking we’d never get along together, this little bottle of golden goodness is my newest obsession. Trust Pixy to come up with an oil even the most sebum-prone person can’t help but adore. Popping open the (uniquely designed) bottle of Softening...
Welly weather combined with summer heat does not happy toesies make. The generous Pexi-Pixy dropped off a tub of Peppermint Foot Cream, and an interestingly shaped Solid Foot Scrub to revive tired toes.
