The NYX primer in today’s column actually sounds really good even though I don’t wear foundation .

Some of them who tweeted support are people I've massively admired for years, like the actor Sam West, and who I hoped would have seen the subsequent Giles Coren video, or at least heard of it. Or/and come here - certainly the threads get thousands of views so who knows?Most of the women writers I like and follow on Twitter - such as Nigella - tweeted support for Sali after her video/tweets that Friday. I interpreted it as an instinctive gesture of support for a person who was visibly upset rather than, necessarily, an endorsement of her portrayal of the Tattle Life comments.
Anyone who came here - as I did - to understand what had caused such upset would have found that it was not quite the way Sali had described it.
No comments again. Must affect things in that I read that once and won't look again. Comments meant I would look a few times mainly for readers cheaper suggestions.
Btw is it common knowledge primers should be left for a couple of minutes before you put on foundation? SH didn't mention it (so I assume it is) but it was a revelation to me, not that I use it that often tbh.

'We' had to make lolol. As if she had any control over or input into K Viner's decisions. The ego. Every single thing she posts isn't hers until it contains some fib, exaggeration, twisting of events or distortion of some sort.“It’s very sad that enough people have woken up and smelt the Chanel so I can’t get away with my usual bullshit anymore”
Not only that, but one of the top listed ingredients is dimethicone! Which of course, is a loathed ingredient, but swept under the carpet for this piece because £££ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE OF YOUR BRITISH POUNDS FOR A FOUNDATION.
have actually just done the same thing. I closed it down, she has no credibility to me anymore. She also just isn’t good in these IG videos, she lacks warmth and her breathing really could do with some media training. Oddly her old Graun videos where she sat on a table seemed much more genuine and natural.I tried to watch the foundation video but only got about 3 minutes in. I just dislike her too much to listen objectively to what she’s trying to say now. Everything about her irritates me even more than it used to. Plus I’ve seen all those foundations reviewed elsewhere by now.
Neither do I, but I do wear primer, because I am a bit extra, and because those ‘cones make your skin feel soooo smooth. I don't have pilling problems if I wait a bit after my moisturiser, but I am also not super crazy about putting silicones on my face, so I appreciate the 'cone free alternatives, also because I don't like the REN one so much.The NYX primer in today’s column actually sounds really good even though I don’t wear foundation .

It's cool and edgy to be a slummy mummy, don't you know...I remember reading this article which seems to be a typical example of Sali’s tendency to slag off other women. Whilst it’s supposed to be self deprecating, it just comes across as a bitchfest of so called ‘proper mums.’ Almost like reverse snobbery, showing how insecure she really is/was. And although some of did resonate with me, I just can’t believe much of it (did she really used to stand outside the school gates in yesterday’s mascara? I thought not removing make up was the worst?!)
'I'll never be a Proper Mum'
Unlike the highly organised alpha mothers she knows, Sali Hughes is sure she will never measure up. And she especially hates the obligatory parent-child social functions. She'd rather drop the kids off, browse the internet and pour herself a medicinal spritzerwww.google.co.uk
Exactly. She’s not exciting, in fact I find her actually uncomfortable to watch, her ‘opinion’ is suspect to say the least and the subject she’s chosen is already old hat. She’s completely irrelevanthave actually just done the same thing. I closed it down, she has no credibility to me anymore. She also just isn’t good in these IG videos, she lacks warmth and her breathing really could do with some media training.

plus, she is so behind. These foundations have already been reviewed to death online.
Yeah, you saw it first on a Superdrug shelf. Being a beauty editor. And very likely to be notified of every possible release from every brand, cheap and expensive. I think it deserves a gif, don't you think?Until now, silicone-free primers have been hard to find, which is why, when I saw NYX’s silicone-free Honey Dew Me Up primer (£15, 22ml) during idle minutes between trains in Superdrug at Brighton station, I couldn’t get to the till fast enough.
So many commas,,,,Morning Scumsters!
OK, I went to read the column and I honestly couldn't get past the first paragraph.

I can't stand the way she takes her readers from granted. She really thinks people are stupid, doesn't she?
She's probably been holding seances with Keats again.So many commas,,,,
