🎉 Exams are DONE, moms! 🎉

We’ve survived the timetables, the “I can’t find my arithmetic set!”, the missing water bottles, the exploding pencil cases, and the 6am “Mom, I need a working calculator and a pacer pencil for my exam… today.” All while managing the “I hate my geography teacher” meltdowns and the dramatic declarations of “I’m definitely failing!” (…followed by an 82%.)

And honestly? That’s exactly why we didn’t get around to writing our weekly blog - because exam season turns the calmest home into a stationery-search disaster zone where even the Labrador goes into hiding.

Now we enter that magical season where:

• They sleep like elite athletes in recovery

•The fridge is raided with military precision

•Every glass in the house mysteriously disappears

• Deodorant becomes a philosophical debate

•"Mom, can we get more two-minute noodles?"

Even if our teens aren’t always gentle, effective, or consistent - at least their skincare can be. Upenya shows up even when they don’t:

A cleanser that doesn’t talk back, a moisturiser that doesn’t eye-roll, and a Blemish care that works harder than any Mom's Taxi on the Mike 1 in Joburg traffic.

Take a breath, moms. We made it. Now go hide the snacks before they finish the week’s groceries by tonight.

💙 Upenya - gentle, effective, and honestly the only thing in the house that listens.
