The sun has finally made its way out from behind the clouds and for those of us who have spent the best part of winter hiding our make-up free faces from the world at large under snoods, beanies and strategically placed scarves, this can be more than a little daunting.
Here are just a few tips that will make facing your spring beauty fears that much easier.

Last year my life, and my skin, changed for the better thanks to the miracle in a pot that is
Boots no 7 Essential Moisture day cream.
Encased in a glossy white jar and with a smooth as silk texture it bears all the hallmarks of a high-end brand without the punishing price tag.
I first chanced upon this bargain beauty find when a friend bought me a no 7 gift pack and, after languishing atop my chest of drawers for a number of months, I finally delved into the beautifully decorated box to fish out a mini face cream that would tick all the right boxes when it came to those pesky airport restrictions – every girl's worst nightmare realised!
After a few days of absentmindedly slathering the mixture onto my face, I noticed that a brighter, fresher version of myself was staring back at me.

The wintery weather is well and truly here and I'm often asked how to keep warm as the days get shorter and the temperature decreases. I'm A Thrifty Mrs and I want you do be warm! How to keep warm;
Common sense clothing - I often see people moaning about how cold their home is whilst standing in front of me barefoot and wearing a t-shirt. It is pretty basic but come on folks, put some clothes on! Pop on a jumper (several thin layers are better than one thick layer) and some socks, maybe even invest in some slippers too. I have no shame in wearing layers of clothes and
occasionally wrist warmers and a snood indoors.
Do something - Keeping
active is key to keeping warm. Whilst snuggling on the sofa with a
blanket may seem alluring, getting your body and blood moving is a far
better idea. You don't have to do a full work out but cleaning,
decluttering and running errands keeps you on the go and keeps you
warmed up. Horizontal dancing can count too. *Cough*

Pregnancy plays havoc with our bodies, well it did mine. It particularly did a number on my teeth, however, it does pay to remember that in the UK you get free dental treatment on the NHS during pregnancy and after for a year.
Vivienne Egan who writes for Ethicare Dental has some great tips on looking after your teeth during pregnancy and why pregnancy can affect your teeth.The extra hormones firing in your body means that your gums can soften and bleed, leading to gum disease such as gingivitis, as well as tooth sensitivity and other issues which can affect both you and your baby if not addressed properly – studies are underway to find out if there is a link between gum disease and low birth weight.
So how should you look after your gums and teeth during pregnancy...

My skin has been really well behaved lately. I know this probably has quite a lot to do with getting over being ill, coupled with switching to a healthier diet and getting more excercise. It's kind of sad actually, there's no substitute for being well and looking after yourself to improve the look of your skin. That said, supplementing good behaviour with good quality skin care is definitely worth doing. I mentioned on twitter the other day that I've definitely found that using a great moisturiser helps the make-up I use look better and last longer, so I can get better results with cheaper products while looking after my skin. Excellent So.. some of the products I've been really enjoying in the past few weeks… Clarins Lotion Tonique Alcohol Free Toning Lotion with Chamomile I bought this when I picked up a huge haul of Clarins products for a bargain price and I use it in the same way as I used the Daily Energizers Wake Up Booster and I like it just as much. It's completely gentle and calming, with a mild fresh scent. I use it when I get up before applying moisturiser and after cleansing or exfoliating. It makes my [...]
