Bloody HATE Function of Beauty. I've also had their sponsored posts come up on my fb feed and all the comments are people saying how tit it is.
I will never buy from.. (fill in the blank) because they gift so much to social media influencers.

I actually know her in real life. She’s genuinely a lovely person. She’s from the same town as me originally. And the fact she has said she won’t be accepting freebies for this baby speaks volumes.
If someone offered me a £1000 washing machine obv I’d take it.

What, even if your husband earned £200K a year and you were a published author yourself....?
Fair play to her for not accepting free stuff for the new baby but i) I think she's savvy enough to understand the backlash she'd probably face if she turned the baby into a cash cow and ii) they are bleeping loaded so don't need to.
My boyfriend works in Dubai and yes he earns in the region of that, I do not. Yes it’s an income coming into to our household. But she’s making money like many others off the back of Instagram, I understand why she doesn’t work anymore but wants her own income.
Very very little money is made from being a published author. You need to be a regular best seller to receive regular large incomes.
Look at multimillionaires they still love a freebie when they could afford it tenfold. I’m not saying it’s 100% ethical but is human nature.
Does anyone actually buy Pixi or are they just for PR 
Let's add Boohoo to the list. Used to buy the occasional item, but am now horrified buy their treatment of staff.
Scamp and Dude
Marks and Spencer. I was a massive M&S food lover so this one is really disappointing.

When will brands learn, most people do not want to see their stuff being given out for free to people who make money selling anything that comes their way! Really cheapens the brand, not to mention the moral aspect of it. 99% of these floggers use the item or whatever once for the thank you freebie post or the campaign and it’s never ever ever seen again

I want to avoid Joules due to the gifting but I just love it so much
Invisalign. I’m paying ££££ to get mine done and I keep seeing random influencers being gifted their treatment and during lockdown!!!
Same! I should take out shares in that company
Ah, I want to look into Invisalign myself, shame they are gifting it to celebs all the time.
I’ve been massively put off by Lush and the insane amount they gift to influencers. Their products are so expensive for us normal folk, yet these influencers just have stacks and stacks of bath bombs that would last them years - it’s just ridiculous.
Also hugely put off by ethical & sustainable companies gifting items to well known unethical & unsustainable influencers who’s main content is fast fashion hauls.

I don't live in the UK so this wouldn't apply to me but if I did I wouldn't touch celebrity hairdressers with a barge pole- Josh Woods and Hersheshons. Influencers go there for free while the plebs on the street subsidize them
Josh Wood for sure. Sam and Nic Chapman plus their families for a start
completely agree about lush- lush is so dear and probably only get about one bath bomb a year and it’s such a big event using it
yet zoella just throws one in her bath every other day and it means nothing to her it’s just an everyday product to influencers!Iconic London, the white stores, shabby home, I’ve unfollowed every interior page
