Those are hideous shoes.
They really are. I've seen them on quite a few 'influencers' recently (presumably gifted) but I don't think anyone can pull them off.Those are hideous shoes.
Looks like a general lifestyle book, going by the Amazon categories - although they are not always accurate. And £26 seems ambitiously priced.Add to that her book was due to be published in April and has been put back twice I think now to September 2001. She said on the Fi Glover/ Jane Garvey podcast she was hoping to get stuck into writing it during lockdown but that hasn't happened. Hasn't said anywhere what it is, I don't think, apart from to say it's not beauty related.
Those are actually the most attractive Grensons I’ve seen, which is saying something.Those are hideous shoes.
Some of the boots are okay, but I really don't like the sandals.Those are actually the most attractive Grensons I’ve seen, which is saying something.

As usual BBB deals with matters in a calm and measured way.Agree with this. Which is fine that she didn't know, but her behaviour since finding out is appalling. She obviously thought she couldn't respond outraged at the candle, as it's in her box, and she clearly wasn't willing to take it out. So out came the "it's just a name" defence. Really sickening.
Her comments about tattle are really starting to tire. I'm not unwell, or unhinged or unhappy or whatever it is shes calling us now. Everything I have said on here is the sort of thing that wouldn't be out of place in my work appraisal. And anything about her personal life is because she's put it on the internet to make money - though to be fair I don't think I've ever even mentioned her personal life. She just can't handle any criticism. And I'm not saying she can't be upset about being discussed, but it's the life she has chosen by becoming a journalist that the public are entitled to have an opinion. If she wants to make money out of her readers then she should be prepared for them to want to dissect how she is doing so if they desire.

My phone is so low on storage I can't do screenshots - sorry!
Not that I'm any sort of style maven but those things look like orthopaedic sandals to me. They don't suit SH but then I don't think they suit anybody!Jesus sandals
Indeed, black on black elasticated trouser/sandal situation with bright toe nails/ bare ankles= not a goth.She doesn't look remotely like a goth
Again, just another attempt to appear cool and edgy. "I don't like the sun like everyone else, I much prefer autumn and I wear top to toe black like no one else on the planet has ever done"Indeed, black on black elasticated trouser/sandal situation with bright toe nails/ bare ankles= not a goth.
The sandals hurt my eyes, so much material!
They look like my nan's orthotics. Only explanation is they are probably $$$$Those are hideous shoes.
She's sO QuIrKy you guys!Again, just another attempt to appear cool and edgy. "I don't like the sun like everyone else, I much prefer autumn and I wear top to toe black like no one else on the planet has ever done"
Fabulous post, JH1980Hello,
I find her content unedifying. Whenever I watch/read her content on Instagram it left me with either a shopping list of some product I need to buy or thinking I must do more to stay looking young. The fact is in 5 years she will be 50 and yet will still look the same no doubt. Also the products she mentions are constantly shifting - this is the foundation you #cantlivewithout, no not that one this Estee Lauder one and then no not that one, this iT Cosmetics one. It's endless and ongoing but the real kicker is you will never actually achieve that look anyway despite the money you throw at the endless stream of shifting products because that which is doing the REAL heavy lifting to achieve the ageless look is not really discussed - the Botox at the Mayfair Clinic and the various other injectable/laser/IPL treatments. Without these structural interventions which would probably cost upwards of £5k ++ a year minimum to maintain, not to mentioned the hair extensions and the lip/face filler, you can and will never be able to keep up or achieve the same results. Never. You will age, you are ageing but keep throwing money at this and that product to look like me. That is the core of what I find irritating about her content. The lack of full transparency.
Yet she dismisses opinions like mine as trolling and exaggerates the content in this forum. The word that springs to mind is Cognitive Dissonance. Until she shifts from that position and addresses the fact she is an Influencer and major part of that is enabling people to spend money which they may or may not have to dispose of, she will remain entrenched.
This aspect of the industry boils down to FEAR and MONEY- the marketing machine (of which she is a cog) generates money, a lot of it. You the reader FEAR fine lines and wrinkles and from this fear the industry and people like Sali Hughes make money. There is much more to beauty and makeup of course (much of which is creative, empowering etc.,) but I am specifically talking about anti-aging products and her lack of full disclosure on this front. I thought I would leave a list of online content I find edifying -

I do agree but, in fairness, I would say that I don't think SH talks/writes much about 'anti-aging' products. Most of her content is about make-up and when it is about skincare she'll describe the benefits as being 'glow' or 'vibrancy' or 'cosseting'. I can't recall her claiming that a product will improve fine lines and wrinkles or loss of firmness or enlarged pores - the 'signs of aging' that brands identify. She is due, however, to post something shortly on retinol products - which are aimed at skin aging - so will be interesting to see what credit she gives then to the heavy lifting that goes on in Mayfair...Hello,
