PERFECT BROWS WITH RUBIS

For the last few season's the biggest beauty look on and off the catwalk has by far been all about the brows. From Cara Delevingne and her groomed full brows to the Kardashian's perfect arches contoured to perfection, the eyebrow is the frame of your face and a perfect eyebrow shape can make or break your look. Avoid an eyebrow disaster and *shudder* having to draw your mistakes back on by using the Swiss expertise of Rubis cosmetic tweezers. A favourite with legendary make up artist Bobbi Brown who describes them as "the Ferrari of tweezers", who could ask for a higher recommendation? Each pair is ergonomically designed and crafted in antacid surgical stainless steel finished under a magnifying glass. I road tested the Rubis Classic Red high-quality cosmetic tweezers, the slanted tip makes it easy to grasp stray hairs and they actually brought a little tear to my eye the force behind them was that strong, pulling precisely from the root. These little babies are now a firm addition to my make up bag and with a range to choose from the Classic Satin Tiffany's to the luxury of the Classic Rose Gold tweezers there is something for everyone.

SUPER HERO FOR KIDS

Now September is well and truly upon us, a few weeks and in and we may be flagging a bit - well think of the kids they are still growing too and getting used to early mornings again. Give them a boost with those long winter days looming ahead with Bare Biology's Super Hero for kids DHA OMEGA 3 fish oil. I found it really simple to drip a few drops into my girls orange juice each morning and at 5 and 2 they were too busy gulping it down to notice! Much easier than a hand full of chalky tablets or shiny capsules. The oil came in a bottle with drip management so just a small amount is realised at a time and two or three drops really was enough, 5ml a day is recommended vital for a healthy heart and to help with brain development.OMEGA 3 is also known to be crucial in skin nd visual health as well as helping improve behaviour and learning in children. Now I'm happily expecting number 3 at 17 weeks pregnant the oil is also great for expectant and breast feeding mothers so I may just give it a whirl myself!

Little Life

My eldest daughter had a Little Life backpack in a ladybird design and I thought it was fantastic. the zip compartment fits a pull up, wipes, a snack, a drink and spare clothes .

My youngest daughter picked this Space Shuttle design, the straps easily adjust and are easy to fit on even though she is very petite. She loves the independence of walking in her own with her own backpack and her own things and i know the handle is right there if i need her closer to me.

Couldn't recommend these anymore!
