Welcome to the March issue, in which we’re celebrating women. This month brings with it International Women’s Day, Bahraini Mother’s Day and UK Mother’s Day, for those of us who are far from our home shores.

In our regular Imtiaz For Her Hosts pages, two mums discuss the issue of creativity in motherhood, how becoming mums has both helped and hindered them and how they’ve coped. Dr Natasa Nikolic tells of delivering a six-month ‘Miracle Baby”. And a group of inspirational women from the team at the British School of Bahrain talk about their very varied careers and the opportunities within education.

In honour of Mother’s Day, new contributor Alison McDermott got to try out a very special spa treatment – the rest of the office wasn’t jealous at all! You can read about her experience on page 29. And if you’d like ideas of where to treat your mum for brunch or dinner, you can find a selection of special Mother’s Day offers at our sister website www.thebhrg.com
Sticking with matters maternal, check-out the fashion pages if you want to steal the style of the world’s most famous mum-to-be. Fernanda has dipped into the wardrobe of the Duchess of Sussex, Megan Markle and tells you how to recreate some of her most popular looks.

Our cover star this month is the woman behind the international success story that is Diva Brow. She gives us a glimpse into her world, talks signature style and explains just what makes her burgeoning business so successful.

In the beauty pages, we tackle the sometimes-thorny issue of facial hair – and, more importantly, how to get rid of it. We’ve also rounded up the best of spring’s new perfumes; perhaps a treat for mum, or for yourself?

Homes stays with the spring theme as Behnaz talks bringing the outside in with the latest round of floral home accessories.
And, as always, you’ll find words of wisdom from our regular columnists.

I hope you enjoy the read and would love to hear what you think.
