Bloggers and #ad #spon

retro:electro

Right so let's pick up where we left off!
Lately I've noticed Chloe Boucher is being let absolutely raid Penneys and take anything she wants. She seems to only be using the hashtag #iworkwithpenneys and not #ad which it should be. Literally once a month she does the biggest hauls and it's all for free, but no mention of it being an ad or sponsored. I think Penneys think they can get around that by asking them to use #iworkwithpenneys as I've seen a few influencers use the same.

She has #sp on Instagram!

Michellenman

The last time she she was #sp for skincare was for pestle and mortar a few weeks ago. Waxed lyrical how she couldn't live without it but I'm sure that will have to change now... the pic she put up for that was makeup free from what I can tell but was taken from much further away, soft focus on camera and her hair covering one side of her face.

What a load of crap! She only posted about Pestle & mortar on the 27th of August, saying it was her absolute favorite cleansing products... And how so many people have been commenting on how well her skin looks. Did she not just use that same line last night about the new range... Really?! It's amazing how much lies these people can spout and get away with!

Unless someone is working with a brand over a considerable length of time then you really can't trust any of these recommendations or must have products. They're being paid and most have zero scruples, it's all about the paycheck

100% agree. Sure you really don't know a product all that well unless you're using it a few months.

I've bought skincare things that I've raved about initially but then after a few weeks they've made my skin oily/dry and I have to stop using them.

Grace has a big break out at the moment and she is constantly pushing different skin care each week for Meaghers. The last batch of stuff I had never heard of. You need to stick with a brand for at least 3-6 months before you can tell if it's working. Sinead from the beautiful truth did this with Image.

But lads stop being such haters! She's a girlboss so she can do no wrong!!

Lol it's just gas. I would love to be sitting in a meeting in my job and be called out on something and tell the person that they were a "jealous hater" and they should be supporting me not trying to tear me down.
Then I'd go back to my desk and block their emails.
In the real world you have to take any criticism on board and evaluate it to see if it's warranted and make changes if necessary and if you can. It is unacceptable that bloggers are refusing to be questioned on their job and getting huffy about having to answer genuine queries.

Was shocked to see FBG actually use #sp on her Insta a few days ago for Newbridge Silver. Why is she so hit and miss?

And then get the inspirational coffee mug saying "real queens fix each others crowns"....that'll show those haters

Allegedly she's "passionate" about skincare.

This new brand is the reason her skin has been so good recently, I presume nothing to do with p&m posts a few weeks ago...

All said on today's snaps!!

I'd imagine that it depends on who's paying her and what rules they have set down.

Ray37

I'd imagine this has been the first gig she's been offered in months, so she jumped at it. It's laughable that a company would choose someone with a reputation for facetuning everythiiiiiing. Is it just me or does MUF not get repeat offers of work, once she has worked with a certain company? I've noticed she seems to chop and change who she works with quite a bit, bar maybe Kerrigans. I wonder what she is like to work with?

SusieBlue

The photographer who took her photos for Fairytales said she was an absolute nightmare and she wouldn't go near her again.
I might not be recalling correctly but I believe getting payment for services was very difficult for the photographer and it went on for several months before being resolved. I read this in the Galz who Snap group.

Do you know the name of the photographer by any chance? Xx

I'd believe this. If she can't even let her friends take candid photos of her on holidays then I'd say she's a proper drama queen directing a professional photog around

Not an #ad/#spon related post but is there a reason bloggers show off every freebie they get?

To me it's just showing off.

Grace did eff all today but leapt straight onto Snapchat to show us her free Kitkats. Why?

And to think that some poor souls adore this kind of rubbish on her snap. Now THAT'S truly sad too.

Not only did I see a blogger recently #brandambassador, instead of #ad... She also did #porn..? What type of likes/followers is she trying to get??

I would say she's a nightmare. Hard to work with brands when you refuse to allow yourself to be photographed. Plus a professional photographer is going to want to do their own professional editing afterwards, not hatchet jobs created on Facetune.

#porn will give that blogger a load of new followers. Bloggers desperate for followers will hashtag anything to try and get their posts noticed.

Peaches_og. Yeah she doesn't have it on every photo, just a few selfies. I don't pay much attention to her, she's a walking advertisement for GOSH and crown brush. I see she was also sent some of that dibi Milan stuff too.

I actually don't sorry! But if you ask on the Galz Who Snap page, the photographer is a member of the group so she'll see it.

This is so funny!

I signed up with Snapchat yesterday to catch up on all these bloggers as the real fun seems to happen on Snapchat more so than Facebook or Instagram.:P

So watched a few clips last night and was scratching my head at FbG. She had the most snapchats posted than any other blogger by a mile but all they were of was her lounging around the house with the child. She listed off three things she couldn't attend (Littlewoods launch, JoMalone xmas event which SoSueMe attended and can't remember the third) because apparently Ciana (?) was sick and she was going to have to bring her to the doctor. But then she headed out and met friends for lunch instead!!

Oh and those dishes in the sink were driving me batty...but eventually her mother or someone came and washed them for her. Is this all she does? I assume at one stage she used to be quite good to gather a following in first place?

I'm going to have to remove her cos watching her sloppiness and not a iota of make up or fashion will drive me insane. I certainly don't want to be "influenced" by any of her habits!! Give me the likes of Vogue Williams any day. At least she's at London Fashion Week, ploughing championships and up at 6:30am for some exercise!!

She seems very very unmotivated

Lindy97

We're all busy but we still manage to get day to day stuff done. Grace makes a huge deal any time she does housework and she moans about clothes washing all the time, she regularly has 4 plus bags of it. Its beyond lazy especially when you look at how not busy she is (and that's not implying because she's at home she's not busy but she has more free time than any working or stay at home mum I know!!). She has time to sit on the sofa snapping her baby constantly. Im all for spending quality time with my daughter but stuff still needs to get done and I work 40 hours a week. If she's sitting on the ground playing in the kitchen stick a f****ing wash on!!!
