Sali Hughes #20 Private Sali, always on parade

[GTL Old-Timer]

Perhaps she changed her mind - about surgery and tops.

She is ABSOLUTELY entitled to change her mind. It would help if she wasn’t so condescending about things to begin with.

 

[Sheeeet]

I promise I did NOT click, it came up on the random search grid! Now I see the rest of the pic, it's very
"No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die"

Poor Blofeld can't afford gold chains, though. He probably buys smartprice parmesan at Asda. Perhaps he should turn to journalism.

 

[rosemarina]

The absolute state of this.

 

[Raindropsonkittens]

It’s not sustainable. It’s not self-care. It’s £90 for some pigment in fat in the middle of a pandemic-driven recession.

Frankly I wish Sali & her gang would start to feel a pang of guilt now & again - whether it is Caitlin breaking lockdown or India legitimising her husband’s pedophilia. Their moral compasses are way off. They seem to think that it’s one rule for then & another rule for the little people. And that we’re too stupid to notice.

 

[Skiddidlydaddle]

Have Squalor Victoria and Sali ever been seen posting at the same time on here and twitter? This is suspicious. Someone needs to double check. Their names both even start with S.

SquALorvIctoria. OMG

 

[rosemarina]

I barely need any makeup with it, just my (£60) Clé de Peau blusher, my (£400) microbladed brows and my C. Tilbs Corpse of Shame lipstick, which suits everybody.

 

[zcfthc5]

OMG. IN that pic, she looks a ropey Welsh B and B landlady ca. 1981. Or the overtweaked, trytoohard women who inspired Amy Winehouse's Fuck Me Pumps. Utterly Hideous. Boobs still look too big.

Harsh about her boobs. Arent we trying to get away from the idea that there is a 'right size'?

 

[Skiddidlydaddle]

But, imagine posting that picture in the first place hoping for these comments...

I mean I assume that's why she posts these gazey, half mouth open pictures? For people to tell her she is glorious?

And... and! Imagine being the type of person who tells someone you don't know "oooohhh you are glorious" What is the function of this type of action? A moment of glory when you get a response from them?

There is just so much to unpick.

 

[Curio]

I love Black Honey but it has the staying power of Darren Day.

 

[Raker]

I’ve said it before on these threads, but having ruined my skin with M&S beauty advent calendar products a couple of years ago, I would prefer to use £199 I don’t have to not line SH’s #kindlygifted fashion forward pockets, but instead see a proper facialist like Abigail James, and get a proper plan of action and recommended treatments and products specifically for my own concerns. That’s a proper #spendytreat.

However, it’s all hypothetical as I don’t have the £199, what with the global economy recession and pandemic related job security worries and all... she hasn’t read the room, again, has she?

 

[Hepatica]

Heads up: India Knight's daughter is no longer living with her. The daughter now lives with her father in London.

 

[BostonFernGreen]

@Sheeeet EXACTLY! I’m going through something at work and the stock reply is to access psychological welfare. No. I want to not be at the mercy of a narcissist.

It’s a complete myth that you can self care yourself out of shitty situations. Yes you should undertake basic health and well-being activities. But honestly sometimes everyone just needs to say THIS IS SHIT

*end rant*

 

[SqualorVictoria]

Sali is an objectively good looking woman. It is a bit ageist to mention her being middle aged. And her body type isn't going to cater to everyone, there's nothing she can do about that.

However, I still can't get my head around influencer culture

 

[Tesla's Ghost]

One day it's sustainability, the next day it's an advent calendar with 25 products. I don't have to talk about my botox, I vehemently endorse its use (paraphrasing). I'm a vegetarian, eats Parmesan. I'm a private person, posts constantly what she's eating, wearing, doing on her holiday. The list goes on.

Must we talk about Christmas already. In August.

This is horrible. I hate Christmas in December, to be honest, so not the right person to discuss this

 

[Sheeeet]

I do sometimes worry about how much I love a good gossip. But then it's just being curious about the world around us really.

What I'm saying is I'm doing it MINDFULLY.

Well I don't know about you heathens, but I'm alright. Every time I do a shitpost, I say a rosary.

 

[Aude]

Aude, your replies are always brilliant and thoughtful. I love to read them.

Thank you. That's such a kind thing to say.

I have a mixture of feelings about contributing here - I don't imagine I'm alone in that - especially when I read things like her IG post today about hygiene poverty. It's such a worthwhile cause and undeniably good work by SH and the others involved with the Beauty Banks charity. Does that/should that offset, for me, the negatives?

I do appreciate though being able to comment on and discuss things here that I don't anywhere else.

 

[SqualorVictoria]

More fodder for her "documentary". I can picture it now "they even misspelled my name, stripping me of my nationality. Despite being a teenage tearaway who couldn't run from my valleys working class hell fast enough and with just £20 to my name, I am still as proudly Welsh as the tapestry blankets on my sofa. My accent may be seemingly erased but my identity remains"

 

[Aude]

There was some spilll over into Instagram about the Botox though right - so she can legitimately call troll? But those people were challenging her about Botox use I think? And were presumably pretty easily identifiable which suggests to me they didn’t think they were doing anything problematic, and didn’t mind identifying as themselves (as opposed to her under a handle).

I don’t know. I’ve been reading all this ever such a long time, may have misremembered, may be stone cold wrong. But those were the people she found across the internet and got her friends to follow, or liked photos, and blocked?

Asking an Instagram infuencer who regularly uses photographs of their own face to promote beauty products whether they have had Botox is surely not an unreasonable thing to do - even if asked in a challenging way.

She was asked recently on the Fortunately podcast whether she'd had any cosmetic procedures. Would anyone have considered that Fi and Jane were 'trolling' her?

 

[SqualorVictoria]

Exactly, @melfish

You won't hear Sali saying to practice self care in the form of say, reading a book that you've brought from an independent book shop (no AF link) but please buy buy from the beauty industry so that Leonard can buy his fourth yacht*

*disclaimer: I have no idea if Leonard owns a yacht, let alone multiple but you get the idea

 

[SqualorVictoria]

Anyone know where one can buy beef patterned masks? To match my visage
