Everyone's experience is different. Just because one beauty product works for me, doesn't mean it's going to work for you. And it usually doesn't work for me.

Thanks so much, Zoe.
DeleteBrilliant post! I can so relate to many of these. :)
ReplyDeleteI originally started my blog as 'fashion & beauty' not knowing what I was getting myself into.. It wasn't until I started reading more and more beauty blogs that I realised that I just wasn't cut out to be a beauty blogger!lol

Haha. Yep, I know exactly what you mean.
DeleteAmen to this! The other girls on The Monochromes are amazing at beauty but I use the same products every day to do the same makeup and so my beauty posts are very few and far between! - Jx
ReplyDeleteYeah, I just wouldn't know where to start...
DeleteGreat post. Thank you for sharing. Xo

ReplyDeleteI LOVE this Helen! You said what so many of us think - regularly! I'd much rather stick on my sunnies and ride my bike!xxxx
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant! I've fallen a bit out of love with the beauty side of blogging, although sparkly highlighters/eyeshadows do still sometimes lure me back in (magpie syndrome), I feel like it was something I forced myself to be more into than I actually was just so my blog could fit in. Before blogging I still liked makeup, but as you say, only to cover up my awful skin. You've put it perfectly in this post though :)

Haaa this made me laugh so much. I don't get how beauty bloggers can try out so many different products and declare them a success or failure, they're using so much stuff how would they know if it's working or not?!
ReplyDeleteI've recently switched to literally just coconut oil to remove my make up and argan/jojoba oil as a moisturiser, which leaves my skin soft and my eyes don't burn from the chemicals anymore. Plus it doesn't leave my skin oily like the other rubbish so most days I don't even bother with make up. I'd make a terrible bblogger ;)
I'm coming to the end of a self-imposed challenge to leave 300 comments in 30 days and boy ... have I run into an ocean of beauty bloggers and I just felt like I'd wandered into another world. I just don't get it.
ReplyDeleteIt also made me feel reeeeeeaaaally old! I am so relieved that when I was younger there was no such thing as a blog [I remember when the internet was all just fields ...] I too might have fallen prey to taking everything - including eye liner - sooooo seriously.
And don't get me started on sponsored posts ...
p.s: this is comment No.197 ... and when you're trying to leave 300 it's a relief to find something I can muster up an opinion on!
