Bloggers mentioning/promoting products

I know she has a team behind her, but i've noticed a lot recently that while she is out and about on snapchat, her blogs and facebook are being updated continuously. So she's definitely not the one posting. I think she's only really behind her snapchat in terms of managing her social media, the rest of her media platforms are left to her team. So really, she should pull her socks up and make sure that she uses #ad on snapchat!

AFAIK you can schedule blog posts and Facebook posts to go up at a certain time. So you can have the stuff done in advance and scheduled to publish throughout the weekend.

SJ also has an office in Ashbourne I think she was looking for someone to work there a while back don't know where I seen that. Probs a rented spit in the flormar warehouse that stocks her products

I agree her makeup is fab. I've a serious girl crush on Tara, love her style, makeup and genuinely seems lovely. However did anyone see her snaps from her masterclass? The goodiebags were meaghers and then today she showed a discount code and a few screenshots of items she recommends from their website. Only a few weeks ago she was #ad for them so surely the goodies bags and screenshots are just an extension of her previous collaboration and should be #? Was disappointed that there was no #ad when she has already done so in the past.

I was referring to Mrs makeup 😮

I presume Rosie was promoting powerscourt hotel and spa yesterday in her snaps? She thanked them and did the whole room tour etc.

Pippa never doscloses ad from what I've seen. She went through the stylpro the same time as others did. Started it by saying she had one before and gave it away "so I got another one". Intentionally misleading with her words.
As someone said I think she's not mentioned as much cos she's the "nice" one. She also has classy taste and the kids would appeal to her older audience. Even her jeans are super expensive but people are buying loads. An older audience and the fact that she's been famous a while seems to mean people are less critical when she pretends to buy things.

Honestly it's nothing to do with being yourself or not. I have always unconsciously adapted my accent depending on what group I'm in and I don't even realise it! It makes me cringe when people comment on it because it's not an intentional thing, it just means you have a good ear for your surroundings.

Very heavy dublin accent that changes to a pish one when on TV... I think that's trying to be something u are not

Understood?

It has nothing to do with her using ad or spon or what the threads about... fair enough you don't like her but making assumptions about stuff like that says more about you than her.

Saw just Jordan put up #ad on her dress from caris closet today(maybe yesterday) I always wonder if you wear the same thing twice do you only have to #ad it the first time?
It's interesting from an ethics and legal point of view... (the whole blogger part) I specialise in employment law and can see this issue growing and growing over the next year or so...

I don't think it matters how they talk or what accent they use when they are promoting products?!

I think pippa goes more unnoticed because she mostly shows products when she is about to use or has just used them. So if they were sponsored it doesn't look that way as she has used them! Most others don't seem to use the products they are sent or are advertising really! Im sure some do but I'm sure plenty don't!!

Maybe put that in a new thread? Don't want the mods coming closing it down for going of topic like the other!?

I don't know about beauty because I don't follow her. I checked her website earlier. Last time when I looked it was Zara everywhere, now there is no Zara and loads of RI, Oasis, Asos and Warehouse. She might be using stuff but I bet she is using stuff that pays her.

She never includes Zara on her blog because they don't allow her to monetise their content through rstyle

I really like lauras views,rosemary and the beauty truth and few others and find them to be very honest and always disclose ads. I don't trust sj,just j, facesbygrace, pippa,rosie con, posts. They don't disclose ads especially on Snapchat. And just find it really dishonest and disappointing. A new thing I've seen starting lately is bloggers who aren't being paid are putting #ad so then other companies think they are and they contact them.

If you read back on a previous post you will see that the reference to her accent changes does actually connect to, what is my own opinion, what makes the overall blog sincere or insincere, including disclosure of #ad,etc (what this thread is about). If there isn't even consistency with the accent, makes a lot of the feed seem suss to me.

That's interesting, how do you know that they're not being paid?

They aren't well known bloggers no pr agencys or anything by them. They are usually the ones who buy followers and likes.
