TheGardenShop.ie.. Play Mats!!

Who knew a good play mat would be so hard to find? Something as simple as a play mat should be easy to come across. Yes? 

Noooo!!! Would be the answer to that..

We've gone through quite a few types of play mats in our house and none seem to be very suitable for the task involved. 

My 3 year old spends his days playing on the floor, either it's with lego or super hero figures and I'm conscious of him being comfortable while playing down there, as I know when I'm playing on the floor with him, I'm not very comfortable. So plays mats are the way to go. 

The problem I've found with the play mats we've used before are, for example:

This Peppa Pig play mat. The picture speaks for itself. The image just peeled away. It didn't help having those little fingers help it along the way, but as soon as he realised it did this, that was that. A little bit more each day was disappearing. Not a pretty sight to have to look at in your home. This one wasn't cheap either. 

The alphabet play mat. Again the picture says it all really. The numbers pop out, as he's only 3, he's more curious than anything, it wasn't about learning the numbers it was all about popping them out, so what once was a play mat, then became, foam panels with holes. Not ideal to sit and play on. More suitable for an older child I would imagine.

So it leaves us with this one were currently using from TheGardenShop.ie I'm feeling hopeful as there are no pictures to peel away and there are no numbers to pop out. Yayyyy!!!!

MeMeMe.. Arch Angel..

I absolutely love a good eyebrow product and this duo eyebrow godsend from MeMeMe is fantastic. 

We all love a good well presented, arched brow and god knows we need a quick and easy way of achieving this in the mornings and this product helps do just that. 

The gel helps sculpt and define your brows into shape while adding a tint of colour. It leaves them looking fuller and thicker and the gel holds the brows in shape all day. 

The opposite end contains a highlighting cream for under the brow bone, it has a slight shimmering finish and you can really open the eyes up by adding this to the inner corners of your eyes. It really helps create that flawless definition we all seek. I love this end of the arch angel it's so pretty.  

The gel part is available in 2 shades, light and dark brown, so make sure you test the colour against your brows before you buy. 

You'll love this product, it's a must have for your make up bag.. 

It costs €10.50 and is Available in pharmacies nationwide.
