Yes the cliqueness was off-putting. The group had a lot of plus points with a lot of nice funny people.
The problem was always when Sali and her friends had their bantz, calling each other by their surnames and going through their 'routines' and stock phrases *bangs gavel*. It was so performative with everyone else as their audience.
Thatās a very good way of summing it up. Also, so much conspicuous consumption! Since I stopped looking at that website/the Facebook page, I donāt think Iāve even thought about buying a new blusher. I have a pinkish one and a peachy one, what else could I need? I remember people on there had SCORES of them
They had blusher wardrobes, a blusher for every different lipstick.
I know! I felt nauseated just looking at the photos! The most you could possibly need in terms of blusher was probably a berry one, a pink one and a neutral one. And maybe a handful of lipsticks. But really, how many red lipsticks does one person need?
Itās other worldly his skin...
If we all just had what we need the cosmetics companies would not make much of a profit. Stuff like that is exactly why they pay Sali and other influencers. They're setting the 'standard' we're supposed to want to live up to. Look at the freaks in Hirons' FB group and their ridiculous stashes.
Speaking of under eyes I noticed her eyes looked a bit crepey too. I think itās just ageing and agree the smooth texture everywhere else doesnāt help. Also any make up under the eye is a sure fire way to crepey ness - Iāve all but given up with it at the moment. I actually look better with less make up on, which Iām gutted about because I love make up and painting my face.
Oh yes! Remember when some one would *run in* and make a PSA and then *run out* again?
For Sali I do think itās all the exfoliation she has going on. Acids as well as tret? Thatās a lot for such a delicate area! She also doesnāt use a dedicated eye cream. Sheās not helping herself!
Sheās so bloody rude. You canāt even read the captions! Sali hasnāt grasped that she needs to place them higher up so theyāre no obscured by the comments at the bottom of the screen. But despite it being her fault, sheās still arrogant enough to have a go at people.
since Saliās skin care advice can be, well, a bit suss*, I hope her contraceptive advice is only followed by those who are open to the idea of expanding their family.*reminds me I havenāt read the Caroline Hirons thread in ages, laters!

I only have what I need makeup wise and it's so much more satisfying. I find it more satisfying to have a certain look and stick to it rather than dithering over 70 blushers and 80 lipsticks like the Salinistas. And which eyeshadow to pair with the lipstick and blusher. Seems like way too much hassle
Love makeup and always will but I much prefer having a small selection of what I will use and not have palettes gathering dust
Thatās reminded me, Iāve not been in Hirons thread either. I took a time out from her after the kits thing as she was doing my head in but I might go back now and see what Iāve missed!
*reminds me I havenāt read the Caroline Hirons thread in ages, layers!
Thread 18 features a freak asking about products for a childās self harming scars.
EH I THINK YOUR CHILD HAS BIGGER PROBLEMS RIGHT NOW.
I'm with you on that. I have more than I need though and yet I have bought 3 LE lipsticks before Christmas (beef-faced influencers. Tsk.). They're lovely.
I know what colours work on me and I don't see why I'd need to buy more. In the past when I tried new things they didn't work entirely too often. I don't need to spend a lot of money on disappointments.
I'm downsizing my beauty products. 10 years ago I had 200+ bottles of nail polish (bad time, borderline abusive relationship. I bought one after another as treats). I did get rid of a lot ('for each one you keep you have to toss one' worked well) and have about 30 left. I've been wearing them all in the last year and if I don't love them (awful brush, chips too much etc.) they're gone. I'll start the second round soon to get down to 10-15. Once I'm not working from home anymore I'll do the same with my lipsticks. Use it or lose it.
What do you do - throw them away or donate to a mate? (Have a lot of eyeshadow singles!)
My town has a very active freecycling group on Facebook. If the thing is decent quality and pretty full I usually ask my sister if she wants it (my mates don't really wear makeup) and if my sis doesn't want to have it, I'll put it in the freecycling group. If it's almost empty or super cheap I bin it.
We currently do contactless pickups, so I'll just have to put it in my mailbox and it'll be picked up by whoever was interested in it first.
Speaking of lipsticks, I still haven't used my LE one
Why did I even buy it when I don't wear lipstick. Talk about being influenced ...And Jared Leto! And Jared Leto's mum, for that matter

Oh I'm glad! I haven't picked it up yet. She has good self-awareness and a sense of humour which probably makes this sort of a book an easier read than the same type of book from someone with an inflated sense of self who hates being wrong....
Technically I only need 4, but I have six (I loathe every influencer who went on about Ruby Woo, itās like trying to apply chalk and is a waste of money. I donāt know why I havenāt chucked it). I also cannot explain how happy I am to be able to use a gif of my beloved Klopp
