Lydia Millen #27 They threw me to the wolves and I came out selling a back mitt

[HereWithPopcorn]

She didn’t gift one to ITF??? I thought they were mates?? And why isn’t ITF speaking in her story is it because she can’t fake a positive comment so she’s writing it as well. Very strange unboxing not speaking at all!!!

At least this is inclusive. Lids never fully captions her rambles.

I really hope for Lyd's sake and to save face, she uploads the weekly vlog admitting defeat. It might actually make people forgive her. If she doesn't, her complete NARC behavior will be with her forever.

Same. I'll at least think a bit more of her if she admits it wasn't what it should of been

The globy account is re posting the first minions receiving their orders!

all the old packaging with a name she can't legally use, jfc.

 

[coriander]

Such a fake that ITF - as if someone who likes (free) hermes bags and bentleys would ever use that tit. They must think that viewers are actually stupid.

 

[Whatliesbeneath]

you can tell that its flimsy and cheap by the indent aka fabric collapsing Because its not strong enough to hold or because when they were sewing the bag the side fabric was too long for the top fabric causing the indent. If it was cheaper i wouldnt say anything but for £50 id expect a strong bag that holds its shape

Ok so I managed to snap the paperwork inside the box ... sorry it’s a bit blurry but I managed to read it ok.
Definitely a tan kit.
There’s meant to be a video on Lydias channel to demonstrate how to use.
this girl got it as a “freebie” too

also I’ve just realised, she says it’s a Freebie but doesn’t have all the press release items from St Tropez. just the small bottle that the first 500 we’re getting
So some of the online “sales” must be freebies. I’m guessing bloggers received a code or something to enable them to “purchase” through the website to get them for free.

This annoys me, too. Lydia doesn't understand how much of a charmed life she really lives. She can get up early no problem because she can go to bed early that evening. She has no commute in the morning to rush to get ready for, but instead can sit, relax and make herself a leisurely breakfast. She doesn't have to leave the house to go to 'work'- simply walk down some stairs. If she wants to go for a run, she can push work back an hour or two. She has a team of people to do all the work she doesn't want to do for her (negotiating deals, editing and all that 'boring' stuff). That leaves her with an entire day to play house. And, even then, she only does the 'fun' bits because she out sources the maintenence of her home to cleaning staff, etc. In the evening, of course she can cook a 'fancy' dinner, because she's done nothing but potter around the house all day rearranging plant pots. It's not as if she's tired. And, because Ali is at home with her, anything that her employees wouldn't do for her, that she still doesn't want to do, Ali will. Then, when she's not playing house, she's playing dress up. The last time I remember even vaguely doing her little try-loads-on-pose-in-the-mirror was when I was about 23 (when I had no mortgage, no kids and nothing else to do when I wasn't working).

It's obviously entirely her own choice to continue with this career, not have children and whatnot, but she genuinely is so out of touch with her viewer base that, clearly, £50 is worth the same to her as about £5 to us. She simply forgets that the majority of her viewers are women who are either just out of school/university and looking for work, women just starting their careers and on starting salaries, or women who have children and more than likely either work part time hours and/or in lower paid flexi-work to work around childcare. Of course, some of her viewers will be well off and easily able to afford the £50 price tag, but would they really want to buy it from her? And, for the rest of us- £50 is a huge chunk off my weekly food shop. If I'm spending £50 on myself, it sure as hell is going to be on something more exciting than a bloody tanning mitt set.

the checklist pisses me off, she's so ableist it sickens me. I have disabilities and struggle to get up early because I sleep terribly, I can't do the exercises she's saying we should do. She never even considers the possibility that some people might struggle with any of that. She clearly only has able-bodied friends white friends. Her inability to think beyond herself is incredible.



Glo team tomorrow morning at their meeting



she's so in tune with her audience though, she doesn't need to ask any questions!

Agreed on everything you said! Another thing i’ve noticed a lot of ‘influencers’ do, Lydia included, is include every little thing when talking about how ‘productive they’ve been’ or how ‘hard they work’. For example, when it was Lydia’s birthday a few months ago, carried popped by to drop off her birthday present. In this vlog, she was talking about what a productive day she had had and all the ‘work’ she had done, and she was sat down and then she was listing all the things she still had to do, and she included opening her birthday present from Carrie, as if it was a chore. Normal people don’t include opening their birthday presents in their to do list lol

Genuine question regarding her product, and please don’t judge me.. but am I the only person that doesn’t moisturise their back? Should I be doing this? Lol, I only ask because obviously she’s claiming her product isn’t just for fake tan but also for moisturising, 1. Does anyone use a mitt for moisturising? Lol and 2. Would a back mitt be needed for that? I’m confused

 

[Oohthedrama]

Frow only got one freebee bottle.
Not the PR drop others got

ouch babeeee.

Well thats more then what the paying minions have got. They didnt even get a free bottle of tan if they wasnt the first 500

I moisturise all over as I have dry skin but I would not use a mitt or that back thing as all the moisturiser product would in my view me wasted and is rather have my body oil or moisturiser on my hands to moisturise them! I don’t always reach every bit of my back bit requires less moisturiser anyway!

 

[Dobbeh]

I’m really not convinced that she even sold the 500 which was showing on the website. Only a few people have really posted/tagged her toolkit online and the majority of these are influencers.
I think that she has probably sold 50 at a push!

 

[CBo]

All of the documentation focuses on tanning. Seems to have been hastily changed to add in moisturiser.

I don’t moisturise my back. I put sweet almond oil on my legs arms and chest and neck when I can be bothered.
I love sweet almond oil, I used it while pregnant and don’t have stretch marks. Also you can use it after breastfeeding on cracked nips. Just FYI ladies
I don’t think anyone has ever used a mitt to moisturise ever. I’ll laugh if I’m wrong lol.

More crap to harm the environment, honestly this picture gives me a headache.

yep let’s see if ITF, Josie and these other LEMmings are still using this set in a years time! My bet would be not, because it’s average as duck and the influencers will have been gifted other stuff to use. More plastic tat filling up our landfill

Monday’s vlog is going to need an Oscar worthy performance as part of damage control......can’t wait

Glo beauty co branding is all over this stuff .. if a company challenged her use of the logo / brand then surely they could sue? What a disaster ...

I think moisturising your back might give you back acne? and do backs even need to be moisturised, nobody really has a dry back do they?

Sorry, it was hard to screenshot a Instagram story and get a clearer picture x
