When you talk about hair removal traditionally it's women who come to mind. Now I won't get started on how this is a male construct and how us girls should feel free to be as hairy (or non hairy) as we wish because today I'm actually talking about the boys - that's right male hair removal, and in particular laser hair removal for men, the holy grail of all body hair removal.

Allergies are a right pain. I am very lucky that I don't suffer too badly with allergies, but the rest of my household are incredibly allergic (to seemingly everything) so I am well versed in how horrible the symptoms can be and how it can actually stop you from living a full life. But while so many people experience allergies the majority don't know what triggers their symptoms. So let's take a look at how you can identify your allergies to help reduce your chances of experiencing symptoms.

Amazon Beauty Advent Calendar Review
I was very lucky to be surprised this year with my very own advent calendar! It's been years since I had my own Christmas countdown and Husband knows I am trying to avoid chocolate so instead he opted for a beauty advent calendar. And because we are Amazon addicts (how else can you shop in lockdown???) he chose the Amazon Beauty calendar.

Over the past couple of years beauty and grooming advent calendars have flooded the markets with everything from bath bombs to male grooming versions. I was very intrigued to see what my Amazon Beauty Advent Calendar had in store each day leading up to Christmas Day. Let's take a look inside and see what surprises this £60 beauty advent calendar has in store...

5 Extra-curricular activities that foster cognitive development in kids blog post title with image of kids art class behind
A high percentage of kids participate in extra-curricular activities at their schools and collages. As parents we recognise the value these activities bring to our children (plus it gives us a little more child free time!). Besides being a fun way to spend their time, after school clubs and classes are great learning, growing, and development tools for young kids and teens alike. I've prepared a list of extra-curricular activities that can help promote cognitive development in kids of all ages.

Reusable Water Bottles – The Eco, The not-so Eco and the Stupid

Picture of metal flask water bottles with blog post title Reusable water bottles - the eco, the not-so eco and the stupid written across
It is now such a commonly held understanding that buying single use plastic bottles is bad that it almost seems like we never thought any other way. Could it really be just 12-24 months ago we were buying bottled water and other drinks without a care, using carrier bags, not moaning at our supermarkets for plastic use? Well, yes it can, things have changed fast and one of the really big areas that was quite an easy change for most people was the humble drinks bottle. Not only did buying a reusable drinks bottle help keep our “Blue Planet” conscience clear it was also a chance to make a statement, to look cool or to have something new to make our own.

You can now buy all kind of drinks bottles including those that keep water super cold for hours such as these https://serp.co/best/coldest-water-bottles/ which are widely available. You can even get branded water bottles for events and businesses.

We rushed out to buy all manner of water bottles but now the dust has settled a bit, which types were any good? Which ones last, which ones are green and which ones were a bit of a con?

Here is a quick guide to some of the more common types of reusable bottle that we have all had time to reflect on.

Guest Post: Helping Your Child Overcome Anxiety Through CBT & Hypnotherapy blog post title with child sitting on sofa behind cushions image behind
We often dismiss a child’s anxiety as a temporary phase that they will soon outgrow. However, when anxiety reaches a level to which it hampers your child’s life, parents should seek medical help. Left untreated, serious anxiety may only get worse, not better.  Eventually, as a coping mechanism, the child may resort to avoiding any situations they find uncomfortable. Anxiety in our society is a big issue.  In the United States alone, 40 million Americans are said to be suffering from anxiety. Meanwhile here in the UK, it is more than 15%.
