    Mani Monday with Essence: The sponge effect

    August 8, 2025 /

    If you’re a big Essence fan (and I’m sure you are… I mean, who isn’t?!) you’ve probably eyed their totally swell ‘I love trends‘ color trend nail polishes. Every time I pass an Essence stand, I swear it’s like I can hear the bottles calling my name! Yes, I agree, I need to get my head checked. But hey, from pretty pastels to sophisticated nudes to alluring darks, the color trend palettes are enough to make any nail polish lover swoon! This week, I want to show you guys one of my favorite polishes from the color trend ‘The Pastels’ range. It’s the #13 called ‘Ice to meet you‘ – a fitting title indeed!…

    Mani Monday with Essence {Enter our giveaway!}

    August 1, 2025 /

    So as you may know, August has officially been dubbed “Womans Month”. And while this holds no specific perks for me, in my household, (gifts. I want gifts), it’s still a pretty darn good reason to celebrate! I am woman! Hoohaa! *cough* Okay, now that I’ve settled down, allow me to explain the rest of this month’s festivities: For the month of August, I will be featuring special manis inspired by my friends over at Essence. They have a bunch of “I’m not really a nail art expert but I wana try” stuff in their ranges and I can’t wait to show you my favorite picks and also a couple…

    Nubar’s Lekker Nail Lacquer

    July 4, 2025 /

    This week I attempted a mani with a polish brand that I had never tried before: Nubar Nail Lacquer. Nubar is by no means a newbie polish. But my spreadsheet brain and I often opt for the brands that we know and are comfortable with. Not today. Check it out:

    DIY nail art using koki pens

    Thats right. I said koki pens. Firstly, do people still use the word “koki”? Coz suddenly I am feeling a bit outdated. Secondly, yes, you can use your average fibre tip permanent marker to bedeck your nails! Let me show you how in this very easy leopard print accent nail tutorial.

    Essence The Gel ‘The Oil Slick’

    June 13, 2025 /

    I was super pleased when our friends at Essence sent us a variety of polishes to add to this year’s #ECMeetUp goodie bags. It’s no secret, I am a huge fan of the cosmetics house and love their nail polish range. So I totally aaacked when I found their ‘The Oil Slick’ polish in my goodiebag. I really wanted that one. How’d it get in there? 😉

    Nail Art: DIY scribbled nails

    April 13, 2025 /

    This past week was a crazy one. Hubstopher was sick, and you know how it goes when the man of the house does not feel well. We walked around on tippy toes and only spoke in whispers too each other… I mean, we couldn’t allow our foot steps and voices to influence the intensity of his man-flu!  Anyways, things are back to normal (the Lord only gives you what you can handle and all that) and I could finally remove the polish from my nails on Sunday night after staring at the horrible chipped mess that it was, for far too long. I hate when my nails look unkept. Anyways, I…

    My week in pics: micro fashion, bridesmaid dresses and nail art

    Love on my nails!

    February 15, 2025 /

    What do you get when you pair up a sleeping toddler, an early evening and new episodes of The Voice? Well where I’m from it spells: Time to put some love on my nails! Since my Curly was sleeping and I had 2 whole episodes of singing to savor, I thought hey, why not maximise your time and do something with lots of colors. (Yes, I realize that my “lots of colors”, in this situation, is just 3 colors. Don’t judge my spreadsheet brain, okay?) Anyways, so I pulled out some of my favorite Sinful Colors polishes. See exhibit A: I started off with my gel look base coat because I…

Anyone else have a clown in the family? Jonah is that clown, in our family, without a doubt. 😝 Homeboy is always cracking us up with his impersonations and funny antics. I actually can't wait to see how his personality develops, as he grows. Can you imagine this clown at 16? I have a feeling that he's going to be the life of the party. 😅 But guys - how amazing is it to be a parent and to witness personalities and characteristics develop? Like, I would never have expected to birth a child who mimics you when you speak, pulls funny faces for every pic, listens to Snarky Puppy for fun and who only wants to eat peanut butter sandwiches. Wie se kind is die? 🤣😅 So who's the clown in your fam? #myspreadsheetbrain #mommybloggersa #sabloggers #samommyblogger #southafricanblog #portelizabethblogger #ecblogger #bloggingmom #southafricanblog #portelizabeth #nelsonmandelabay #southafricanparentingblog #saparentingblog #samomblogs #faithblogger #christianblogger #motherhoodunplugged #parentsinsouthafrica #wife4life

WIN! | Did you know that brushing alone is not enough to ensure good oral health? Yep, that’s right – your mouth may not be as clean as you think it is. Cleaning between your teeth is super important, because that is where majority of the cavities start! The gum health experts over at Sunstar GUM says that teeth have five sides – brushing only cleans three of those sides. So daily interdental cleaning is a must! Enter: Sunstar GUM’s #GUMEssentialWorkers – a range of interdental tools that help to clean where your brush can’t reach! My fave is the soft-pick advanced. These little babies come with a handy travel case, making it perfect for hand bags! This Oral Health Awareness month, Sunstar GUM wants to help you to practice good oral health, by giving one of you a Sunstar GUM #GUMEssentialWorkers hamper to the value of R800! 😁😁WIN! | To enter, simply drop me a comment below, letting me know which Sunstar GUM interdental tools you’re most interested in. (Clue: click on the link in bio to read up about it). Don’t forget to follow @luchae. You can share this post to your stories for an extra entry. 😁😁 Terms and conditions: Giveaway closes on 23 September at midnight. Competition is open to SA residents only. Competition is not affiliated with Facebook or Instagram. T&C’s apply. Decision is final and we reserve the right to disqualify winners should entry mechanisms not be followed.

The face of the boy who lost our car keys. 😒 Don't be fooled by the cuteness. This is also the face of the boy who walked through the house with a Koki and marked every object be came across. Also: he empties my entire cutlery drawer and leaves little piles of knives and forks underneath blankets and between couch seats. There are no teaspoons left. I stir my coffee with a tablespoon now. 😒 So todays #realmotherhoodchallenge - "losing my mind" - is dedicated to this little face. And yes, still haven't found the car keys.

My 6 year old told me to tell you that you are wearing your scrunchies all wrong! 😵 Sure you can wear them on your hair but - gasp! - they are "actually" meant to go on your arm! 😳😱 Get with the programme okay? Geeez. 😝🤣 She received these GORGEOUS scrunchies from @_the_little_closet_ the other day. We're both kinda obsessed with them. I totally made her wear it in her hair but these are so gorgeous they definitely belong on her arm! Have you, too, been schooled on the arm scrunchie phenomena? Also ... How old are we?! Also...

My 6 year old told me to tell you that you are wearing your scrunchies all wrong! 😵

Sure you can wear them on your hair but – gasp! – they are "actually" meant to go on your arm! 😳😱

Get with the programme okay? Geeez.

😝🤣

She received these GORGEOUS scrunchies from @_the_little_closet_ the other day. We're both kinda obsessed with them. I totally made her wear it in her hair but these are so gorgeous they definitely belong on her arm!

Have you, too, been schooled on the arm scrunchie phenomena?

Also … How old are we?!

WIN! | Happy birthday @ubereats_za! Can you believe that your favourite food & essentials delivery app is celebrating its 5th year with us in 🇿🇦?! What has been your favourite about the Uber Eats app? Mine, fa shiz, is the fact that I can schedule orders - it really helps when I'm ticking off my "to do'' list as a working mummy! Can we also quickly talk about how Uber Eats has made #lockdownlife that much easier? Contactless delivery, customised drop offs (you can specify where the delivery person must leave your order), filters that eliminate foods that you may be allergic to and drivers/couriers who adhere to Covid protocol! Need I say more? Plus, on the days that my kids nag me for my over-layered lasagna, the app delivers all of the groceries right to my door! 😁 WIN! | Uber Eats wants to give you a voucher to the value of R1000, to join in as they celebrate their 5th birthday! To enter, tag a friend below and tell them about your fave meal and must-try restaurant on the UberEats app. Don't forget to follow @luchae and @ubereats_za. Good luck! Terms and conditions: Competition closes at midnight on 23 September. Competition is open to SA residents only. Competition is not affiliated with Facebook or Instagram. T&C’s apply. Decision is final and we reserve the right to disqualify winners should entry mechanisms not be followed. Voucher is not redeemable for cash. #FiveToUberEats #UberEatsGetsIt #myspreadsheetbrain #mommybloggersa #sabloggers #samommyblogger #southafricanblog #portelizabethblogger #ecblogger #bloggingmom #southafricanblog #portelizabeth #nelsonmandelabay #southafricanparentingblog #saparentingblog #samomblogs #motherhoodunplugged #parentsinsouthafrica #wife4life #bloggiveaway #sacompetitions #blogcompetition

So what's the screen time rule in your home? Not gonna lie to ya - I sometimes NEED screen time more than I care to admit because it gives me a minute to get things done while the kids are occupied. But, yes, I do try to keep screen time to a minimum. Which is why I was so impressed to learn about the award-winning Yoto Player. This cool new (to South Africa) audio platform is changing the game! So it's basically a Bluetooth speaker box that plays audio books for your kid. Here are some of the reasons why I love it: 👉 Your child has full control over their listening experience 👉 There is an ever growing collection of audio book cards available 👉 You are also able to create your own content on the blank cards 👉 The Yoto smartphone app gives parents easy control of settings and content management. 👉 The app also gives you access to a couple of kids "radio stations" and a bunch of other content 👉 Yoto Player gives hildren access to entertaining content without removing the joy of using technology for fun, learning and imaginative play. The Yoto Player retails for about R2498 and is now available across the country at selected Toys R Us stores, iStores and a branded store on Takealot, South Africa’s leading online store. What do you think about this concept?
