£50 as 'affordable' makes me want to scream. The Ordinary, The Inkey List, some Superdrug/Boots own lines are affordable £5-10 per item brands, with brands like Garnier, some Body Shop, Q+A, Superfacialist, some Indeed Labs etc being mid-range affordable and the likes of La Roche Posay, some premium drugstore ranges, Nip +Fab, Vichy etc being at the top end of what you could claim as 'affordable'... these people live on a different planet

We’re all familiar with the fashion singular. Sali now introduces The Cheap Crisp Singular…
Well she's the most teeny weeny XS person to ever walk the face of the earth so maybe she does just eat a single crisp
You have to admit, it’s an impressive feat to be able to come across as the narcissist while interviewing a Hollywood movie star.
Read Grazia in a waiting room today. All I could think was this mag used to be a fun and thought provoking read with a clear identity. Blimey. Ad after ad disguised as content. And I'm including the poorly written bland contribution from Ms Hughes which was obvs paid for by the brand in question. So we must ask 1. How long before Grazia gives up trying to be some kind of print version of an influencer which no body wants? And 2. How can SH claim journalistic credibility? Basically she wrote a press release. Badly
Nadine has been a beauty journalist for decades and is a regular contributor to the Saturday Times Magazine. And yet, aknowledging that she is now primarily a social media influencer, she describes herself on Instagram as 'Digital creator'. This compares with SH's IG description - 'Journalist, host, broadcaster, author' - when I would guess that the proportion of SH's work that is journalism etc is about the same as Nadine's.I love the way in comments Nadine Baggott pulls rank and says she has met Jane Fonda TWICE
Although there are a few irritating things about Nadine, I think it's partly this unpretentiousness that explains why she has only one-third of a thread on Tattle compared with SH's 39.
I'm sure years ago she used to say her shade was Alaska, and her Bobbi Brown shade was Warm Sand. I have similar colouring and bought both of these when I used to hang on her every word and they were way too dark / orange. And I'm not even 'that' pale
Oh dear. Three likes.
Are people not as enthralled by the fascinating cheap crisp debate as they used to be?
Good point, they may well have. Someone said in the IG comments, I hope you are brave enough to ask about all the surgery (or words to that effect, but they definitely said "brave enough"). No response from Sali when I saw it, though she was responding to comments around it.
The questions were probably pre-vetted by L'Oreal too

It's my shade, too and I wouldn't describe myself as super pale.

Agree - Nadine is alright. Can always find pretentious attributes with online influencers but Nadine comes across genuine and I don’t think for a minute she’d post a photo of her in bed with her cats!
This short IG vid clip from Lab Muffin is more interesting than She Here's entire column on the subject of oral collagen supplements.
It’s 2021, the world has gone to tit, it’s as awful a time to be a woman as it’s ever been, hundreds of thousands of people have died of covid, it’s Challenge Poverty week, today was the official day that the £20 a week UC uplift ended and all the endless campaigning to keep people marginally above the breadline by keeping it has failed. There’s an energy crisis where you are better off on the energy cap, which is huge, than trying to fix your tariff. Honestly? Read the room. Don’t be shilling £50 products and calling them democratically priced. It’s a joke.
Why not publicise the heck out of Beauty Banks? Why not say ‘spend your £50, if you have it, buying things for Beauty Banks that will help people who have nothing because, let’s face it, you probably have more than enough in your beauty stash right now and you only have one face and 24 hours in a day with which to dollop product onto it’?
Right, I’ve got it out of my system now. Onwards.

She's said in the past that her engagement drops when she posts about Beauty Banks, so that tells you all you need to know about her priorities
Do the clients at BeautyBanks agree that it’s “democratically priced”?
Exactly. This demonstrates what a total hypocrite she is. Blathering on about the environment and doing such publicity hungry charity work whilst spending over 60 quid on a blusher and endless minging, designer clothes. She's absolutely insufferable.
"Jane Fonda is waiting on meeeee"
Maybe because people sense the performative ego boosting motivation and hypocrisy.
She may, but Fonda still takes L’Oreal’s cash whilst not mentioning all the procedures that are actually responsible for how she looks. That’s L’Oreal who that sells skin whitening creams in South Asia. Their only concession being to change the products’ names in response to BLM:
L'Oréal to remove words like 'whitening' from skincare products
