I'd never ever lie about a pr product and when I did write a rave review of pr product and I was so nervous people would think its a lie. x<br />lifeandlipsticks.blogspot.co.uk/ Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17499015838678072064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587421703309716260.post-62807908946324134202013-04-03T03:13:38.588+01:002013-04-03T03:13:38.588+01:00Such a great post!

Couldn't agree with you more, some people are just very ignorant about bloggers and the amount of hard work and honesty we put into our blogs :(<br /><br />C x<br /><a href="http://www.luxlife-blog.com.html" rel="nofollow">Lux Life Blog</a>Catherine Luxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03475999581798470672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5587421703309716260.post-64635152902522983352013-04-03T02:55:14.054+01:002013-04-03T02:55:14.054+01:00I could not agree with you more.

My negatives may actually be someones positive aspects of the product so I highlight my concerns anyway and let my readers take from the review what they wish. Magazines are paid to show the product in a positive light and more times than not tell you nothing more about it than what you would find on the label of the item anyway. I love blogs because they are written by real people. Pictures are of real women wearing the product. Not an airbrushed picture which has been made to look a certain way and in fact does not reflect the true appearance or fit (in the case of clothes) of the product. Bloggers influence what I buy more than any other advertising out there, and many of the things I have purchased I would never have even looked at if it weren't for the recommendation of a blogger. I wish more bloggers got free samples of products (providing they reviewed them with an honest opinion). Although I may be biased because I am a blogger myself; the time, effort and money that goes into the blog is more than that of any writer in a magazine.

I've never been sent anything for blogging purposes, and it'll probably stay that way, companies probably don't take me kindly because I very rarely come to even an 80% positive review, I'm a criminal pessimist/moaner. Just goes to show this journalist is doing the usual on-the-outside-looking-in that we always see in the tabloids, assuming we do all this work and get paid through the nose for it providing we toe the line and praise the hell out of brands. Really? Allllllrighty then! xali zombiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597650045401874780noreply@blogger.com
