Mumma make up dupes





 As a busy mumma my make up and make up routine as really changed over the years. I have to apply a quick face that is lighter and more suitable for play dates and being in the sun at the park/ beach ect. So I need products that last all day and also are more affordable now we have a little one to support.

So I have made a quick list of cosmetics dupes I have discovered that are Vegan, cruelty free, affordable, easy to find and easy to apply. 

I have also included some of my favourite cosmetics that I have not found anything that compares to these products. These might be at a higher price point but they last a long time and are worth the cost. 

*A couple of other make up tools I should mentions are the MCobeauty blender sponge it is almost as good as the original beauty blender, it does a great job. Also I a have a few Elf cosmetics brushes in my set that accompany my Sephora set. 

*Another tip is if you don’t use much of something (for example I don’t use much primer usually) purchase the mini tester size. I currently have the mini smashbox photo finish primer and the mini Urban decay all nighter setting spray. ;)

That’s all for now. Let me know what your favourite dupes are and which products I should try next! 

Much love 

- Mumma R

Rewards and Punishment- How to lean away from them

  Rewards and Punishment Let talk about rewards and punishments with children. Personally I stay away from rewards and punishments with my son. There any many factor to consider when choosing a way of parenting and Disciplinary tactics, what you believe and how you feel about it.  Popular culture would have many believe that there are two ways to influence human behvaiour – through the use of rewards or punishments. The lollie or the stick.  Generally speaking, most professionals in the early childhood education and care industry understand how inappropriate the use of punishments is with young children. There is widespread consensus that relying on spanking or “timeouts” is at best not effective, and at worst, harmful. Less well known is the ineffectiveness of rewards.

Activists to encourage for infants and activities to avoid:  To some people I may seem like a very over responsible, over protective mother but I just try to do the best by my baby. They are still so new to the world, So these are the things I encourage and things I avoid when it comes to my little one.  Encourage: Play - Play is really important for babies, it’s how they learn and develop. I try to do a variety of different play scenarios everyday so my baby stays interested and has fun! Reading - reading to your baby is also very beneficial. I started ready to my baby since he was a week old. He loves listening to the words and sounds I make and looking at the picture, also feeling the texture of the books.  Talking - of course talking as much as you can to your baby will help them develop those language skills. Try talking out loud and explaining everything you do with them.  Outdoors - it’s great to get some fresh air with your baby. Eith...
