I\u2019m a beauty writer for both on-line and mainstream media. I\u2019ve written 4 beauty books over the years and never want to write another! I have two children, a little poodle.<\/p>\n
I started writing beauty for various newspapers. When I first started writing, my initiation was to be made Shopping Editor on a parenting magazine, because the previous incumbent had walked. Actually, it wasn\u2019t long before I followed her, realising that there is only so much fascination a limited edition set can induce.<\/p>\n
I then had a column in again about children\u2019s product but progressed to some travel writing. Eventually, someone gave me a go at writing about beauty, and the rest is history. I\u2019ve never enjoyed writing about anything as much as I do about beauty. It\u2019s endlessly interesting, constantly changing and I am never lacking for subject matter.<\/p>\n
So, I like to showcase products I think are excellent, beautiful, and exciting, as well as give a no holds barred point of view on products that aren\u2019t so good. My thought is that if a brand is asking for money for a product that doesn\u2019t do the job, isn\u2019t great value for its market, is all smoke and mirrors, they need to go away and make a better one and not expect nobody to mention that it really isn\u2019t very good.<\/p>\n
Advertising Policy: I now take selected ads in an open fashion and sponsored posts which are clearly labelled. In the interests of being open, the sidebar is a paid for service for products I personally rate and like. You\u2019ll never see anything I don\u2019t actually like in the sidebar for the sake of a buck.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I\u2019m a beauty writer for both on-line and mainstream media.
