Perks For PottyMouths

Pssst! It's so close to Mother's Day, but even if you're not a Mama, I have some sweet little offers available to my awesome readers. 


Old Shanghai Massage House is offering 20% off all treatments to PottyMouthMama readers until the end of May. 


From the brains and beauty behind The Victoria Room, the Old Shanghai house is a really beautiful place to indulge in a treatment. Decorated in an eclectic mix of beautiful and ornate Chinese elements, and easily located in Oxford Street, Paddington, it feels like you're in another world. 


I had a massage there pre-Christmas and really loved the experience. Jin gave me the mother of all massages  and performed miracles on me, fixing all my sore spots. Afterwards I indulged in a warm cup of green tea. 


Trust me - either treat yourself or ask for a treatment for Mother's Day. When you ring up, your code word is 'pottymouthmama' to make the most of the 20% offer (valid until end of May).

While we're talking beauty, Darling - creators of my FAVOURITE nail colours have just launched their Autumn/Winter collection. Darling is the brainchild of two of my ace friends, and a culmination of lots of hard work and awesome creativity. 


The palette is totes radsicles. If you spend over $40 you will receive 15% off your purchase with the special code 'HELLOPRETTY'. Valid for the month of May.  




you could always print this post out and leave it lying around for your smalls/partner to find, and then they will come to the end here and I will say - YES DO THIS FOR THIS AWESOME MAMA! It's Mother's Day! And she's RAD!

The Darling Bird

Check out my new mani ladiez!

It's called 'The Bird' for reasons only known to me. And you, if you like to occasionally flip the bird too. Like it?

I truly love playing with beauty products. The ability - and the accessibility to change how I look - I create different personas witheven  just a slick of lip colour, or a different eyeshadow. It's fun and playful and I like it.

One of my totes favourite, bestest ever beauty quick fixes is nail varnish. I can change it as often as I wish and be a new person with shiny nails with colour dripping from them - et voila.

Last night I concocted 'The Bird' - my very own manicure. I created it with two colours from the brand new Darling (Showpony - which is the best pink ever, and Trophy Wife - a Limited Edition metallic glitter like none you've ever tried).

Created by two Sydney gals, Darling applies beautifully -  even with just one coat. Can I get a bit nail-nerdy on you and tell you that the coverage is sublime - I didn't use a base coat and it applied smoothly, and chip-free.

Besides a range of rad colours - the Darling nail lacquers are 3-free - NO toulene, formaldehyde, DBP or camphor and they're animal testing and cruelty free. I am so loving all of this after searching for a quality nail varnish that comes in hot colours.

This is it baby. Darling.
