I'm a makeup artist - my clientele are mostly celebrities. When I put the word out to all of the yummy mummies I know about what they would want to know about celebrity makeup tips, the majority of answers fell into two categories: one was a list of celebrities who have a "look" they want to steal, the other was that it had to be quick!!

It's a game. A high stakes, no mistakes game of cat & mouse. A game requiring steely nerves, and cunning strategy. A forbidden game that many adults are forced by nature to play. A game known to scores of parental units as Secret S-E-X...Shhhhh...

According to a not-to-be named here Humungous International Advertising Agency, mothers can be divided into categories like Domestic Divas and Rage Brigade, allowing this and other HIAAs to better create advertising which targets our varied purchasing needs. Apparently, we are pro-sumers: pro-active, information-empowered people whose attitudes and behaviors signal emerging consumer trends. Mommy purchase-power. I am dubious.

1. Her Drawers Were Always Organized
After my baby shower, I had what felt like hundreds of those little baby washcloths. I diligently washed them (in special hypoallergenic baby detergent, of course) and folded them in fourths, smoothing them over my swollen belly and placing them neatly in a drawer. Skip ahead to a month later, and within a 24-hour period, every single washcloth was covered in either poop, pee, spit-up, breast milk, or tears. I washed and dried them again, but this time, I threw them all in a pile on the change table where they would be destroyed again over the course of the following 24 hours. I've now gotten a bit better: I'll toss them in a shoebox if I'm on a bit of a clean spree. But let me tell you: those facecloths got folded and put away once in 18 months.
Oh, and the special detergent was quickly replaced by whatever was on sale that week.
