035 : Confessions of a Beauty Blogger


I was recently tagged by the lovely Jules over at Lippy Likes in the 'Confessions of a Beauty Blogger' tag, this is my first tag, so be gentle! I really love reading tags and getting to know bloggers a little better :) 

Here are my confessions!

1. How many hours a week do you spend writing / editing posts? 
At the moment, way less than I should! I do a lot of note jotting, I have tons of notebooks full of blog plans and ideas, updating Blush & Belle takes around 10 hours a week, including photography & design.


2. Are you a spender or saver?

Oh gosh. I have zero self control when it comes to money! I'm a definite spender. I just can't resist. Shopaholics anonymous is calling my name!



3. When is it easier for you to blog? 

My mind is most active in the evening & I have two young boys, so definitely a night owl! I find its when I'm most relaxed too :) any excuse to sit in bed with a hot chocolate!



4. What makes writing behind a computer comfortable for you? 

Bed. Hot chocolate. Pillows. Done! Comfort is definitely key for me, I'm not one for sitting at a desk all day!



5. What is your worst make up / hair habit? 

Uh oh. I'm quite impatient when it comes to doing my make-up and I'm really lazy slow in the mornings too, so it always takes me forever, when it comes to hair, I straighten the bits I can see and whack a bit of Batiste on it! I barely ever brush my hair & it always looks a bit disheveled!  



6. What is one quote you wish the world lived by? 
"No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite." - Nelson Mandela

7. How long do you spend getting ready every day? 

It takes me around 45 minutes to an hour, which includes skincare, make-up, hair, getting dressed & having some breakfast! I never quite feel satisfied with how I look though, I always look in the mirror before I leave the house and I think I could have made a little more effort!



8. Who's your favourite blogger? 
I read so many blogs so its so hard to choose! I adore Zoella just because she's so cute & her personality is addictive, I really love Liv Purvis - her outfits are just divine, and don't get me started on the beehive! Too much love! aaaand Molly from What Molly Loves - she's come so far since starting her blog, I really admire her, and she's so down to earth too!



9. Who is a blogger that you think deserves more subscribers than they have?

Heidi from Blush & Belle?!


10. What is one thing you are excited about in the upcoming year?
Definitely blogging more, so much can change so quickly when you blog, its crazy. I'm determined to put way more time into Blush & Belle.



11. What is your most awkward blogging moment?
At a blogging event in London which I won't name, the event was amazing in itself but there was some guys there eyeing up all of the models and bloggers and going 'WOW' when they walked by, its alright when its subtle but its a little cringe when they're so completely obvious! They were literally burning holes in their arses with their eyes!


12. How long does it take you to prepare a post?

It depends on the post, I'd say an hour to plan, an hour or so to photograph and re-touch images and around an hour or two to write until I'm happy with it!



13. Are you wearing trousers right now or jogging pants / PJ bottoms?
 I've just got out of the bath so I'm in Ted Baker pj shorts & a black H&M t-shirt. comfort at its finest!


14. What are you most proud of in life?

It's got to be giving birth to my beautiful little boys, Alfie & Oliver :) aww!
