Beauty lifesavers for a new mom?

[champagnesupernova]

I SO should have started this thread in S&B - what was I thinking?
What else can I give as well as dry shampoo
ta

Clarins beauty flash balm.

Two lip glosses (same/similar shade) - one for bathroom, other for baby bag.

Compact hairbrush with mirror - for baby bag.

Touche eclat

Really lovely hand cream; the type that no one minds if their new baby smells of it after being hugged! I used to hate the smell of perfumes etc on my babes. There are some fab ones in Waitrose at the moment and not stunningly expensive despite being organic and/or largely natural.

touche eclat- works under eyes, or laura mercier secret concealer
a nice moisturiser, something like beauty flash balm?
mascara- always makes everyone look so much better

spanx?? (ok sorry I'm evil)

Mock ye not about Spanx!

It took me ages to work out that the yards of thick black material I saw when new mums bent over were, in fact, their Spanx pants.

OK spanx and breast pads, OP. She'll love you for it

Brilliant all
Have gone wiht useful but mildly dull handcream in handy pump dispenser.
She usually has gorge nails so hopefully it will be appreciated.

A good deodorant - she may ease up on daily showering...

those nice face wipes.

hand cream, Clarins is my favourite.

good shower gel.
