Tag: Bloggers Made Me Buy It

Who are your most influential bloggers?  Who are the ones that you really rely on for reviews and swatches?

I love The Sunday Girl for getting news of the latest releases and it's mostly Adrienne's fault when I pick up something new. I also love reading ETC LLYMLRS - Lily's blog is one of the first I came across a few years ago and I've ended up buying a lot of products after she's featured them.

2) Do you buy a product solely as a result from one review from your favourite bloggers, or do you look for more reviews from others?

Not always but if it's something like a lipstick then I only really need to see one swatch to know I want it. I don't really have to be persuaded.

3) What is your most favourite item that you have ever bought as a consequence of blogs?

La Roche-Posay skincare, especially Effaclar Duo. It's really made a difference to my skin and I never would have thgought of purchasing it if I hadn't seen it on loads of blogs.

4) What is your least favourite item that you have ever bought as a consequence of blogs?

When I was in Paris, I finally gave in to the hype and bought some Bioderma. It's not awful or anything, I just don't think it's as fantastic as everyone makes out.

5) Name 5 products you have bought recently as a result of blogs.
- Urban Decay Naked 3 palette

- MAC lipstick in Violetta

- Sleek Contour Kit

- Estee Lauder Double Wear

- Nuxe Reve de Miel lip balm

6) Have you ever given in to blogger hype?  If so, which hype?

Yes, loads of them! Models Own polishes, Naked 3, NARS Orgasm etc.

7) Have you ever avoided blogger hype?  If so, which hype?

I avoided the micellar water hype until I went to Paris and then I felt like I had to buy some Bioderma!

8) Is everything you buy based on blogger reviews or are there some items you buy without checking out a review?
I make a lot of spur of the moment purchases, I'd say it was half and half really.
