Imperial Leather ~ more than soap with a sticker

02/10/2014 By All Mum Said 1 Comment

Everyone knows Imperial Leather soap, it’s the one we all want as kids because it has the sticker on it! I can feel you nodding along right now because every child references the Imperial Leather bar of soap with the shiny gold sticker. As a child every time we bought soap I always wanted that one, as an adult however I like to embrace fragrance and more feminine scents. Imperial Leather have taken the desire for fragrance into account with their new range of body wash and hand wash. After extensive research they found that 97% of men and women surveyed felt more confident when wearing a fragrance and 2/3 Australians wear perfume or aftershave on a daily basis. I am an everyday perfume wearer and like to change it up, which is quite evident by the 30+ bottles I have in varying scents. Each scent triggers a different feeling or emotion, leaving me feeling sexy, confident, relaxed, or reminiscent.

I have been using 3 of the products from the new Imperial Leather range and love them, one in particular is my favourite. No. 30 Tahitian Retreat.

No. 30 is called Tahitian Retreat and this couldn’t be named more appropriately. A coconut and sandalwood mixture, this bodywash instantly makes you think of a holiday. The coconut evokes relaxing a sensation and leaves you feeling moisturised.

N0 37. Flirtatious, a combination of pomegranate and wild rose. I found this fragrance to be more rose than pomegranate but it was very refreshing and soft on the skin. All the Imperial Leather body wash contain strong moisturising properties that feel like luxury in a liquid form.

No. 35. Zen Garden is an anti-bacterial and cleansing handwash that combines green tea and kaffir lime. It is invigorating and fresh without being overpowering. The Imperial Leather handwash is soap free, skin friendly pH and improves skin hydration.

There are many more fragrances to this new range and I’m sure you will not be disappointed. View the new Imperial Leather collection here.

My new business cards from MOO + giveaway

10/09/2014 By All Mum Said 39 Comments

Business cards are an essential item for any business or blog owner. It is your face when you aren’t there. It’s a way to grab attention and stand out in the crowd. After all you are usually just 1 person in a room full of people trying to attract the interest of customers, businesses and public relations workers. A business card shows them what you’re about, showcases your personality and is basically a reminder of you are once they return to their home or office. You want them to remember you, in a positive way.

I understand people often think any business card is better than none and sometimes that may be so. I am however a firm believer in first impressions and making them count. A quality business will make a lasting impression It’s equivalent to dressing professionally for a meeting. You don’t want to walk in with boardshorts, a singlet and thongs (flip flops for our international friends) and your business cards shouldn’t have to either. You want to impress from the second you introduce yourself to the moment they get home and re-read your card. Quality is everything!

MOO business cards

I was recently asked if I would review (and offer a couple of giveaways for fans) on the MOO business card range and as I had only just re-branded the blog and needed them anyway I couldn’t say no. After much deliberation and trying to decide on which MOO business cards I wanted to represent me I opted for the Luxe business cards. I had high expectations for these cards as they are on the expensive side (in my opinion) but I was absolutely thrilled with the results. They scream I take pride in what I do! Which of course I do and I’m sure any business or blog owner does as well. The Luxe business cards are 3x thicker than your average business card (600gsm), incorporate a strip of colour (of your choice from the selection available) through the layers and brilliant quality print. Definitely worth every cent. MOO may have been established in the UK but they now supply a wide range of printed products around the world. There are so many products on offer at MOO like stickers, letterheads, postcards, flyers and the list goes on but I only talk about business cards in this post as that is I have reviewed personally.

We are in a digital age however the business card still remains a very effective and beneficial marketing tool. They are your last chance to make a first impression and you want that first impression to count.

Keep healthy this winter

17/06/2014 By All Mum Said Leave a Comment

Keeping healthy and on top of life in winter is a hard thing to accomplish especially when you have kids that attend school or childcare. They pick up bugs, flus and god only knows what else. Being the sharing little people they are they distribute these germs around the home and to everyone else in the vicinity of a 100m radius. Extra precautions are required in the cooler months to keep immune systems at their best, to kick the health draining illnesses in the backside before they have a chance to take hold and keep you out of the game.

Great for kids. RRP from $18.95

As soon as we feel the season changing we ensure we take our vitamins and eat extra vegetables so that we are doing everything we can to maintain our health. While I find it easy enough to swallow vitamins the kids struggle and it’s near impossible unless they are chewable. Up until recently when I was contacted by Hivita Vitamins I wasn’t aware that there was a liquid vitamin. The Hivita Liquivita is a multivitamin in liquid form which is ideal for children over the age 2, people who cannot swallow tablets and the elderly. The benefits of this are wonderful and stretch far beyond just your immune system – it also assists in the maintenance of healthy teeth, gums, skin and blood. I have tasted the liquivita and while it isn’t the nicest tasting, I have definitely tasted worse medicine. The kids didn’t seem to mind the taste though which is a benefit in them wanting to take their supplements.

Womens Multi RRP from $26.95

Hivita also cater to women with their Women’s Multi which offers a blend of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that assist in maintaining your nutritional needs, vitality and stamina. I have been taking this vitamin for almost a month now and while friends of mine have caught everything that they could possibly catch I have been living life as usual. The multi-vitamin also helps relieve the symptoms of PMS and assist your bodies ability to cope with stress. It is a great feeling knowing you have that additional help to keep your body (and mind) fighting fit and because Hivita are passionate about health and wellbeing I didn’t see the harm in giving them a trial as my immune system body guards. They can stay on full time. Hivita are Australian owned and 100% Australian made and offer many wonderful posts on healthy living and staying well so pop over to their website and check out how you can maintain your health this winter.

My Best Friend Is a Bag – Leather Nappy Bag

11/05/2013 By All Mum Said 1 Comment

Baby bags or nappy bags as many know them as have come a long way in the past few years; they no longer look like daggy old bags designed specifically for carting around nappies, wet wipes, bottles, spare clothes, snacks, etc. They now look like stylish handbags; yet they are still practical for the needs and requirements of a newborn or toddler.

My Best Friend Is a Bag has a gorgeous range of baby bags that double as handbag. When you are lucky enough to go out alone her name is Victoria and when you have your little ones in tow she is known as Harper. I love that regardless if you are using for yourself or for your baby it caters every need. It can hold all babies things with room for your essentials as well; all while looking fabulous and downright stylish. Oh did I mention they are top quality Napa leather? Which ultimately means it is easier to keep clean, it’s as simple as giving it a quick wipe down.

I love the range of colours available in this handbag / leather nappy bag; there is definitely something to suit everyone. I have been reviewing the giraffe animal print which is absolutely adorable but there are many others to choose from that I wouldn’t say no to owning either! The colour selection includes: Burnt Orange, Chocolate, Giraffe Animal print, Truffle or Watermelon Pink. It is very hard to pick a favourite colour.

The Harper/Victoria Leather Bag (leather nappy bag) would make a great gift for baby showers, Mother’s Day, birthday or even anniversary because it is so versatile. They retail for $295-$320 but they are all currently reduced to $160!! That’s half price for a great quality, practical and stylish handbag/baby bag.
