Will you take a look at this beauty? When I first laid eyes on it, it was truly lust at first sight. The embossed snowflakes, the layers of colours … oh it’s enough to make a grown woman weep. Okay, almost. 😉
The 001 is a combination of pale pink and shimmer that gives the complexion a lift. It’s a sheer blush so if you’re into sheer, buildable blushes, you’re going to like this one.
Have we come to the end of the month already? Gee, where did the time go?
There are plenty of hits this month. You won’t see most of them here because I’ve already reviewed them. These are some of the products that I haven’t reviewed but would still like to give a brief mention.
There aren’t many misses this month so I thought I’d throw in a movie that I didn’t particularly enjoy just to balance the list out. Just don’t hate me when you find out what it is, okay? 😛
After weeks of talking about how to increase reach and engagement via social media, I thought I’d share a little insight into a couple of methods that did not work for me, particularly on Facebook.
I’ve read blogs upon upon blogs on blogging and almost every social media expert who preach on the benefits of Facebook and how to increase reach tell the same things. Post often, don’t post too often, post images, don’t talk too much, share and share some more.
May I have a show of hands if you’ve tried them all? I have.
If you use Facebook to promote your blog and products on, you’ll probably be as frustrated as I am with it. Just a change in algorithm could mean that whatever you’ve been doing may be rendered completely useless. Want your post to reach a wider audience? Pay up. Want your page to gain more likes? Pay up.
What makes it even more frustrating for me is that most of the Facebook tips I read about don’t work for my page at all. In today’s Bloggie Wednesday, I thought I’d show you how my methods of increasing reach on my Facebook page defied all the must-dos that social media experts preach about. Bear in mind though that these methods do not work for me. They have worked for many people. Maybe even you.
Remember when I mentioned I hardly ever blog about perfume? Well, today I thought … oh, why not? 🙂
If you’ve been reading my blog since 2007, then you will probably already know this. If not, well, this is just as good a time to share a particular perfume with you that I wore to my wedding.
Choosing a fragrance to wear to a wedding is hard. Choosing a fragrance to wear to your own wedding … that’s bloody tough. What if I end up not liking it? What if it doesn’t smell the same as when I first bought it? What if my husband hates it? There were so many what ifs so it took me quite a while to finally decide on the right perfume.
We hate spam as much as baked beans. We also won't share your details with anyone because we're selfish like that.
