So on my blog I haven’t really talked a lot about being a new mom….mostly because I am too busy being a new mom to write about being one haha. To be honest becoming a mother is the best thing that has ever happened to me! My son Valor is beyond amazing and I am totally in love. Now that I have made that clear there are certainly things that have changed in my life. Mostly the amount of time I spend on myself has changed. BB (before baby) I would spend lots of time doing my makeup in the morning and now I play a game I like to call “How fast can I get this makeup on my face without looking like a toddler did my makeup”, It’s not such a fun game. So I thought I would share with you all 5 things that every new mom (or a really busy woman) needs in her life.

First on the left is the Weleda New Cuticle Softener Pen and Nail Care Pen. So before baby one of my favorite things was to go and get my nails done.

I loved the whole experience from the hand massage to knowing all the nail technicians were talking about me in another language and trying to guess what they were saying.

Now however I hardly get my nails done so I have these two Nail Pens to save me. When I have a spare minute I get these pens out and give my nails some TLC. With pomegranate seed oil, almond oil and protective Beeswax these pens put the life back into my nails!

Second products is the Oasis Beauty Fruit Smoothie Exfoliating Face Mask. Now what I love about this product besides the ingredients (papaya, pineapple, pink grapefruit and pink clay) is the fact that you can use the Fruit Smoothie as either just an exfoliator or if you have a bit of time you can leave it on as a face mask. So handy!!! It leaves my skin feeling so smooth and soft!

Next is the Trilogy Everything Balm. The name pretty much explains this products use. It can be used to help dry skin, frizzy hair, nappy balm, chapped lips, boyfriend problems and more. The Everything Balm contains pawpaw, Echinacea, jojoba, coconut, and avocado oils.

I keep this bad boy in my handbag and use it on well…everything!

Second to last is the new Vaseline Spray on Moisturizer. I love these new sprays so much because how annoying is it to rub cream all over your body every day? I hate it so my skin was always really dry until I got to try the new Vaseline Spray range of moisturizers and man now I am addicted! They are just so easy to apply just a quick spray and a little rub in. It leaves my skin feeling soft and not greasy so I am a huge fan!

Last but not least is a candle. Because for some reason at the end of a long day when baby is asleep and I have a cold glass of pino in my hand nothing beats lighting a candle to relax. It’s the little things that I love. I am currently loving the Davines OI Ambience Candle. I have the Musk and Amber and it smells amazing and it’s not too expensive which is always a bonus.

I hope I have helped you in some way with little things that you can do to make yourself feel good. It doesn’t matter if you are a busy mom, student or business woman we all need to take some time out for ourselves because we are worth it♥
