Advice on starting a beauty blog?

Ziegfeldgirl27

I know there are a couple of bloggers on here, and I would really like to start my own. I am very enthusiastic about make up and nail polishes, and I am always trying new things and buying new products so why not. What is the best site to start a blog?

I'm hosted by blogger and find it great, Wordpress is another one but it's too expensive for me to run for what I want. If you only want the free option then either are good. Tumblr is another one people use but I wouldn't recommend it.

I started on wordpress.com it's great for free blogs but the majority of girls use blogger:)

Thanks girls, I will look into Blogger this evening!

I use Blogger also and I think it is very reliable, easy to navigate (and I am a bit of a technological failure!)

As for tips. just be honest and true to yourself and that will shine through- I read many blogs where girls are completely inconsistent, slate a product but then say they would repurchase etc. Honesty is best policy and it starts off by being honest with yourself.

I personally like informative posts, good pictures, and I like it when bloggers inject a bit of themselves into their blogs and let their personalities shine through (without telling me what they had for breakfast on any given day!) Hope that makes sense!

Best of luck with it
