🚗💸 A $139 car seat that DOESN’T make me cry installing it?! 😂

If you’re looking for an affordable, easy-to-install car seat in Australia, here’s my first go of installing the InfaSecure Sprinter Convertible Booster Seat from Kmart!

⭐ 4.9/5 customer rating on Kmart
✅ Approx. 6 months–8 years (depending on shoulder height)
✅ Six-point harness that converts to booster mode
✅ Air Cocoon Technology
✅ Easy-install seatbelt path (THANK F@$&).

For $139, I was pleasantly surprised! 🙌

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: This is my personal first impression, NOT an installation tutorial, professional safety review or advice. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and vehicle manual, ensure the restraint suits your child and vehicle, and consult a qualified child restraint fitter if unsure.

If you have rosacea, you’ll know how hard it can be to find a skincare routine your skin actually likes 🌸🫧

Skin barrier cream, anything overly moisturising - made it worse! Rosex is what I used initially and that was great. Then I started using the guys below…

After dealing with rosacea, facial redness and sensitive skin, these have become some of my MOST loved skincare products and permanent repurchases.

My rosacea skincare routine includes:
✨ Micellar water
✨ La Roche-Posay Effaclar skincare gel & serum
✨ La Roche-Posay Anthelios invisible sunscreen
✨ Keeping my routine simple and consistent

I use these products alongside medication prescribed by my dermatologist, and while everyone’s rosacea and skin is different, these are the skincare products that I personally love and keep reaching for.

If you’re searching for rosacea skincare, sensitive skin products or a simple routine for redness-prone skin, save this one 🤍

Okay mums… I need to know if this has happened to anyone else?! 🤱🏼🫧

I stopped breastfeeding 16 months ago, but I’ve recently realised I can STILL produce breast milk/colostrum-like fluid?! 😳

Has anyone else experienced breast milk production long after weaning? How long after stopping breastfeeding could you still produce milk and did you ever find out what was causing it?

And before anyone asks… pregnancy is absolutely not possible 😂 I’ve been abstinent for over TWO YEARS, so we can confidently cross that one off the list. ✋🏼

I’m genuinely curious whether this is a normal post-breastfeeding/hormonal thing, or something other mums have had checked out.

Tell me I’m not the only one?! 👇🏼🩷

Okay… but what even IS UGC? 👀🎀

UGC = User Generated Content.

Basically, brands pay everyday people to create videos and photos featuring their products. Think try ons, reviews, tutorials, unboxings, demos and relatable content they can use on their own social media or in ads.✨

And no, you don’t need large following to start.

I’m new to UGC too. I’ve spent 10+ years working across sales, marketing and social media, but I’m learning the UGC world from scratch and I earned around $500 in my first month. Which means maybe you can too!?

So I’m documenting the journey.

I’ll share with you - what I know about getting confident on camera, creating content that connects and selling without sounding salesy, while sharing what I learn about starting UGC, finding opportunities and working with brands along the way.

If you’ve been Googling “what is UGC?” or “how do I start UGC?” Then you’re in the right place. 🤍

Follow along and let’s learn UGC together. 🎥

Want to start UGC but worried you don’t have the right camera, lighting or editing skills? 🎀✨ You probably already have everything you need.

One of my biggest UGC tips for beginners: use natural light. ☀️🫶🏼 Face the light, keep it behind your camera and avoid filming with a bright window behind you. Such a simple change can make your UGC videos look instantly better. 🩷

And please don’t let the perfectly polished content online put you off starting 🥹🌷

Most brands aren’t looking for a professional film crew or a picture-perfect home. They want real people creating authentic, relatable content that their customers actually connect with. 💌✨

No fancy camera.
No studio.
No perfect background.
No complicated editing. 🎀

Sometimes it really is just you + your phone + good lighting. 🫶🏼☀️

If you’ve been wondering how to start UGC, this is your sign to start before you feel ready. 🌸✨ You’ll learn the rest by doing it. (And I’ll be posting more on this topic soon).
