Super hydrating and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky on the skin. Dries quickly and pairs nicely with your favourite moisturiser
Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides) 23% Off
It’s impossible to not have time to apply SPF with this! It’s literally a quick spray on your face and it doubles as a setting spray! It has a light scent but nothing overly offensive and doesn’t have that chemical sunscreen smell to it! Highly recom...
The Quick Flick Quick Screen SPF50+ 3 in 1 Sunscreen, Setting Spray & ...
It’s a “jelly” type cleanser, but it doesn’t feel odd on the face, it’s definitely not slimy! It foams up nicely (but not too foamy!), feels nice on the skin and doesn’t leave you feeling dry or sticky like other cleansers. It’s definitely made a dif...
Hydrating Face Wash
Doesn’t leave you feeling sticky after applying!
Day Dream
This SPF feels so light on, it doesn’t have that typical sunscreen scent either. The bottle is a little bit of a pain, but the product itself is incredible. It doesn’t leave you feeling sticky either
Nifty Fifty Fluid | Ultra Lightweight Sunscreen
A light feeling moisturising that leaves you feeling hydrating. Has a press down top which makes getting the moisturiser out of the packaging really easy and clean.
Moisturizers
If you love the smell of coffee, this one is for you. It smells exactly like an espresso martini but doesn’t smell like alcohol! The foam is so light but does a great job of cleaning and leave a light scent!
Sundae Whipped Shower Foam Espresso Martini 265mL | Toiletries
Honestly, it smells like raspberry jelly - but not over powering. The foam is super light but cleans well and leaves a light scent.
Sundae Berry AHA Shower Foam 265mL | Toiletries
Smells like fresh passionfruit. It’s perfect for summer. The foam is light and airy, but cleans well and leave the nicest scent after.
Sundae Whipped Shower Foam Passionfruit Pop 265mL
I don’t know what Frank Body did to make this, but it’s like magic. One minute you have a pimple making an appearance the next it’s going down. It doesn’t feel sticky or dry, it’s barely noticeable on the skin. It does sting broken skin, so I wouldn’...
Clearing Spot Pen
This takes away the puffiness that appears under your eyes - especially after a rough night of sleep (when you’re kept up all night by a toddler who is adamant he needs to watch Toy Story at 3am haha)
Caffeine Eye Serum
I may not be currently pregnant, but when I was this was the most amazing product to rub on my belly (especially later in pregnancy). I had no stretch marks during my first pregnancy and very few during my second. I’m not saying it’s because of this ...
Belly Butter
This is a super hydrating moisturiser and it’s so gentle on the skin. Even if it’s the only thing you put on in the morning, it makes you feel incredible

It’s a creamy mask but doesn’t feel heavy on your face. It’s very hydrating and calming
Over Night Hydrating Sleep Mask
Feels so hydrating when you put it on your skin.

This is absolutely incredible if you have dry skin, it’s so hydrating and doesn’t feel heavy or sticky on the skin!
I’m a tired mum, and always looking for something to make me look a little less tired! This takes that puffiness away and helps make you feel a little more human!
Perfect for the end of the day when you need to remove everything off your face - whether it’s just skincare or make up. It’s super gentle and doesn’t feel harsh on the soin
Magic Melt
This is like magic in a bottle, apply under your eyes and watch the puffiness disappear! Works wonders after a rough night of sleep or a big night ou
Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG Eye Serum
Haircare
I’m a mum of two young boys (two under two!) so I don’t get to wash my hair as often as I like - in comes my hero Georgiemane dry shampoo. Unlike the aerosol cans you usually see, this one is more of a powder, you pump it on, give your hair a bit of ...
dry shampoo
I use this after washing my hair, it makes my hair feel cleaner for a bit longer but also smells so good! My hair feels softer after use as well.
Fructis Hair Food Banana Hair Mask - Nourishing
Fragrance
A light and refreshing fragrance mist! It’s not over powering and lasts enough to catch little whiffs of it during the day. I occasionally use it after dry shampooing my hair to give my hair a bit of a boost (and so I feel less gross!)
I always buy ...
