The Blogger Made Me Buy It!

 Hey Peeps,

*Is she really doing a beauty post?* Yep I sure am, I know I haven't done a proper beauty post in ages. So I am going to try and keep them fun and regular with other posts thrown into the mix to keep it interesting! I saw this tag on Sarah's blog OhhSoGlam and thought it was super cute and girly, plus you know how much I love a good tag :D You should all go and check out her blog and say that I sent you over there. Onto the questions...

 

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

This is such a tough question to start with... Louise from SprinkleofGlitter is my most influential blogger but for reviews and swatches I rely on Lily from LilyPebbles and Anna from ViviannaDoesMakeup. I love their blog design, their photographs and their posts are always short, snappy and straight to the point which I love. All their reviews are really current and up to date and they usually have a review on a new product before it is even available to buy.

 

Do you buy a product solely from one review from your favourite blogger, or do you look for more reviews form others?

Usually there will be one post that makes me think WOW about a product if I haven't heard about it before, and then I will follow it up by having a look at other reviews. If I see a product online or in a store that I like then I read at least 3-5 reviews on it too see what the majority of people think!

 

What is your favourite item you have every bought as a consequence of reading a blog?

Without a doubt I would say the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer, every single blog out there raves about this and I can see why. It is super cheap, has great coverage and is trust worthy staple in my makeup bag. I don't know what I would do without it and I always end up going back to it!

 

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

When the Maybelline colour tattoos came out they really intrigued me and because every blogger was talking about them I thought I would give it a go. But I just don't get it? It looks really cakey and streaky on my eyes, the colour selection is a bit poor and overall it really let me down.

 

Name 5 products you have bought recently as a result of blog?

Real Techniques Core Collection, Maybelline Dream Satin Foundation, Sleek blush in rose gold, Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 107 and Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Sticks.

 

Have you ever given in to a blogging hype? If so, which one?
When I first started blogging I saw reviews left, right and centre on the Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation. after weeks of lusting over it I finally gave in and it is one of my favourite foundations!

Have you ever avoided a blogger hype? If so, which one?  

I was never really into the who Rimmel Apocalips, if I am honest their pigmentation scared me and everyone kept saying they lasted all day. I didn't think I could pull off such a statement lip.

 

Is everything you buy based on blogger reviews or are there some items you buy without checking out a review?

Most of the time, like I said, I will read lots of reviews on a product before I buy it as I like to know what I am spending my money on. But I am also very good at impulse buys and if I see something in the shop that is spanking new, with a cute name and gorgeous packaging, it usually ends up in my basket... whoops :D

 

There you have it my lovelies, I hope you enjoyed this tag and I am not going to tag anyone in particular but I do tag YOU, yep you reading this and thinking how good the questions are. I know you are just itching to confess all the products that being a blogger has made you buy!
