Eye of Horus Mother Muse

When it comes to beauty advice, the mothers at Eye of Horus are in the know. 
With Mother's Day just around the corner, we sat down with these amazing women to learn more about their beauty routines and favourite products. Not only did they provide us with invaluable recommendations, but they also shared their insights on balancing work, home, and family life. 
We hope that their wisdom will be just as helpful to you as it was to us.

HOLLY SCHLEICH, FOUNDER, MOTHER TO BANKSY & LENNI

What does Mothers Day mean to you?
To me, Mother's Day is a celebration of love, respect, and appreciation for motherhood. 
As a Mother of two beautiful boys, I believe it is an opportunity to honour the contribution of mothers, acknowledge the efforts of maternal bonds, and recognize the role of ultimate nurturers in our society.
The best thing about being a Mother.
The best thing about being a mother is an unconditional love you feel and receive. It is a love unlike any other. Although being a mother can be challenging, it is also so fulfilling and rewarding. There are ups and downs, but the respect and pride that come with motherhood cannot be compared to anything else. There is an innate, fierce motherly instinct for protection that cannot be described but experienced.
The best thing your Mother taught you. 
My own Mum taught me to love unconditionally, without judgment. She always supported, loved, and encouraged me with whatever I chose to do. That is what I strive to do as a mother myself.
The best motherhood advice you’ve been given.
The best motherhood advice I've been given is to be present and enjoy the moment. It's easier said than done sometimes but I feel it's important to remember that it takes a village, so don't be afraid to ask for help. Giving yourself grace and lowering your expectations can also be helpful. Instead of worrying about the state of your home or what you're wearing, focus on having belly laughs daily, building strong bonds with your children, and connecting with them. Life is short, and human connection and relationships are everything.
How did your beauty routine change after becoming a mother
As a busy Mum of two and a businesswoman, my beauty routine is low maintenance. I am obsessed with the Eye of Horus Seven Seed Sacred oil (which is my holy grail) followed by our Triple C Concealer to cover up any dark circles, the Skin Tint Serum covers so well and gives me a beautiful glow. I follow by applying our Goddess Mascara and Lip Elixir
What beauty advice did/will you pass on to your kids?
I believe that skin health is a direct reflection of what is happening on the inside of the body. Therefore, I focus on the importance of a healthy diet and lifestyle for my children. Additionally, I emphasise the importance of protecting their skin with quality sunscreen to prevent damage from the sun.

HEATHER SPIERINGS, DIRECTOR, MOTHER TO TYE & HOLLY 

What does Mothers Day mean to you?
Celebrating the gift of an incredible journey of life with my own mother, myself and my daughter as we confide, acknowledge and share the joys and struggles that only mothers can identify with.
The best thing about being a Mother.
A lifelong journey of love and connection, support and giving with two amazing humans who you’ll adore forever.
The best thing your Mother taught you. 
Say yes to everything, you’re stronger than you think. The resilience she taught me has carried me through life’s challenges.
The best motherhood advice you’ve been given.
Stay friends with your husband, and don't sweat the small stuff.
How did your beauty routine change after becoming a mother
Use less, buy better.
What’s the best beauty time-saving hack that you’ve discovered?
Adding a few drops of the Seven Seed Sacred Oil to the Organic Bamboo Cleansing Cloths to deep cleanse in the shower.
What beauty advice did/will you pass on to your daughters?
She actually passes beauty advice onto me! But we have the same philosophy of enhancing naturally, not overdoing, but eyes bright with mascara and skin glowing with Skin Tint Serum is a must. 

KIM GRAHAM, FINANCE MANAGER, MOTHER TO ARCHIE & LYLA

What does Mothers Day mean to you?
Mother’s Day means everything to me. I feel honoured to get to raise two incredible little humans. So a day dedicated to celebrating being a mother is something really special to me.
The best thing about being a Mother.
Learning what unconditional love means is one of the best things about being a Mother. Your heart cracks right open, raw and real and they fill up that expanding space… and remain there forever. 
The best thing your Mother taught you.
Family is the most important thing. Life is always going to throw you some curveballs, but you’ll be able to power through those challenging times when you have your tribe behind you.
The best motherhood advice you’ve been given.
Becoming a mother is a huge life transition. Most of the things you thought you knew about being a mother get thrown out the window when you actually become one. The best advice I got is “This too shall pass”. This has been a very useful mantra when sitting in the thick of it, in the early days. 
How did your beauty routine change after becoming a mother
Sometimes being time-poor, getting children ready in the morning as well as myself, I had to learn how to become more time efficient with my routine. This meant finding the right products that had easy application. And when it all got too hard, a pop of colour on my lips always made me feel ‘done’. 
What’s the best beauty time-saving hack that you’ve discovered?
Using my lipstick as a blush. One product, two ways. Great for a quick little colour in both my cheeks and my lips. 
What beauty advice did/will you pass on to your daughter?
The beauty advice I will be giving my daughter will be the same advice passed down by my own mother. Always care for your skin with quality products, avoid harsh chemicals, always wash your makeup off before bed and drink lots of water.
