Caroline Hirons #29 Not an influencer? What a load of (overpriced) flannel!

[50sGirl]

Oh if I manage to stick it out I'll be back here like a shot if she says owt about the other elephant

Mind you, I wish there was another word for it. Elephants are dignified, intelligent and amazing creatures. Nellie ain't any of those things.

Thanks for taking one for the team Finifus!
Make sure you take anti nausea meds first, you’ll probably need them.

IF it is mentioned I bet there’ll be no apology and she’ll play the victim oh and the Trinny’s my friend, she’s fine with it bollocks.

I may attempt to watch myself but as soon as she takes her first gulp of tea and swills it around like mouthwash I may switch off. She does it every time.

I agree. My skin always looks better when I use less products. Following her advice definitely made it look worse with redness etc.

this is my ethos too. Instinctively you know what your skin likes. People have been totally scammed out of hundreds of pounds being convinced they need an 11 step routine with costly products. Fomo had played a big part as well and it’s disgusting. I remember going off her advice when she picked a spot and blasted it with acid tonic afterwards.

OMG yes. I remember that with the spot.

Since de-freaking my skincare routines are so much simpler. Morning is cleanse, vitamin C serum + moisturiser (no separate sunscreen unless it's sunny. My moisturiser is SPF30). Night is cleanse, retinal or hydrating serum, moisturiser if needed. I do use the Ordinary aha/bha peeling solution once a week or so. Easy, cheaper, my skin is happy.

Her lives
So many irritating things:
The tea swilling.
The grimacing and baring her teeth.
The smug 'hm hm' laugh when she has said something contraversial or ballsy like 'I just block anyone who is a dick'.
The affectation she is late/unprepared.
The fiddling with her hair in the delusion it is so mad and uncontrollable.
The fiddling with her neckline.
The constant muttering viewers comments under her breath.

For starters

If she had any self-awareness she'd start by blocking herself, Kate Pink-tit and the Haddock woman for starters

I find arming yourself with a large glass of wine helps!

Caroline also said this to a live audience "- 99% of what your face is showing comes from you stomach (for example – there’s no acne in Africa where there’s starvation) - everything that goes in you gut shows on your face". The source is long gone unfortunately, I copied it from gurugossip.

There is acne in Africa. What a stupid woman. My dad had acne in his teens (when living in West Africa) as do a few of my cousins living there. What a twit

Plus the constant “hellos” along with “babes” or “mate”.
”You do you babes!”

From her stories. She has zero self awareness…

I still laugh at that live when she was talking about HRT and seeing her face when she screamed “JUST GIVE ME THE DRUGS” was hilarious .

anyone seeing that clip out of context would think WTF ?!.

She’s moaning on Insta about her hotel room last night. Poor lighting and the TV didn’t work. She was only in Winchester FFS, couldn’t she just go home, it’s only 68 miles

To be fair, on expenses, I‘d stay in a hotel too. But I’d want a working telly. Perhaps CH is too shy to complain

Oh yes. Poor little shrinking violet Oafy McOaf-face. I'm surprised she didn't ring down to reception and demand "Do you know who I am???"

Received a ‘shining the spotlight’ email from Caroline’s best mate, Space NK, today. It was about Theresa Tarmey.

Can you guess which item received top billing?

Yep, the £220 microneedling kit advertised and endorsed by the Kween herself.

My goodness… what did you do before!!? I think that sounds like the perfect routine

That’s hilarious. Do you think it’s Space NK having a pop back at the Kween? I’d love it if it was

Hi Rita, Sue and Bob too!

I rewatched that quite recently Siobhan Finneran was great in it and has gone from strength to strength as an actress

Oh, you know, the standard double cleanse, acid, mist, treatment serum, moisturising/hydrating serum, eye cream more mist, moisturiser. Just a typical Freaks' routine.....

Another offer of a free bag to try and flog more unsold stock !.

Interesting. The add for the bag says skin rocks by Caroline. I’m sure the brand items do not have this extra information.
