She is one of the most humourless people I've ever seen. Or maybe that's the Botox!

Lol, interesting that one of her pals said something along the lines of older women shouldn’t wear red lipstick. Bet if it had been someone else Sali would be stamping her feet about it(
“Chanel makeup artist Mary Greenwell worked with Wiley, and has a few tips for older women. First, skip the eyeliner. It's a bad idea for older eyes, which typically have looser more delicate skin. And second, she suggests that women between 45 and 60 need not wear red lipstick. It just looks bad, says Greenwell. Save it, she says, for when you're a really old biddy, and can wear it in an eccentric and fun manner.”

She met her current husband on Twitter, who was she married too first?
I remember when Sali said she'd have a botox friend ( it was IK) when she was chairing a talk. As she has gone too far I assume IK is so botoxed up herself she still believes no one can see it. I dont recall her ever admitting to botox until recently and she was furious at the time.
Her book PH was a rehash of guardian columns and a complete waste of money. Although her 2nd book was far worse. I couldnt understand at all why any publisher would pay for that tripe.

Oh man, that Vogue piece is a masterclass in smug self-importance. Not to mention the name dropping.
“Despite the fact that I’ve written two bestselling beauty books and a beauty column in The Guardianfor some seven years, I really hadn’t planned to have a professional glam squad for my wedding - never mind the artists who, between them, have created iconic looks for Cate Blanchett, Uma Thurman, Jennifer Lawrence, Keira Knightley, the late Princess Diana and over 200 Vogue covers”

Oh thanks for the Vogue article - so bloody Sali. She never disappoints and of course mentions she was a runaway teen (she doesn't really like to talk about it).
"When Dan and I decided to get married, we were both adamant that we wanted it to be completely on our terms"
Radical. I can't think of a single couple in the history of ever who have done such a thing.

The stress of a church or synagogue was just too much for her. Presumably she still had to arrange a place to get married, somewhere to fit all those friends would be tricky to come by.
I have two children and at least five jobs, and so I simply don’t have the time for regular facials, massages, tanning and the like
5 jobs she says
how does Super Sali do it all?
Some nice advertising in that piece ,

Wow that article is nauseating. Trying to sound relatable and being so braggy at the same time is just ridiculous.
The fact that she dropped her long standing loyal hairdresser for Sam McKnight says it all .
.Only 30 comments on her eye cream column today. Used to be in the 100s. Plus the photo is ridiculous - smooth airbrushed face. I give up.
I’ve remembered another Sali Suspicion that wound me up. Her moral stance on Rodial – “I just think that the way they market their products is offensive to women and I have such a fundamental problem with them. I don't even want to open the jars."
She then goes on to repeatedly praise a Nip & Fab (by Rodial) product. Actually, if you look at the dates, she praised Nip & Fab first, then 20 days later made her Rodial comment. Perhaps something had come to light in those 20 days? Nope, praise for Nip & Fab on at least two other occasions since.

Nip+Fab (by Rodial) is another, though I'd like its occasionally very good products a lot more if their stablemates didn't have such offensive names (Body Slim Fix and No Needle Fix: give me strength).

Hughes seldom offers negative reviews herself, but that doesn't mean she doesn't make judgment calls: "If I don't like it, I ignore it," she says, dismissing an inferior product both effectively and metaphorically. There are exceptions, though. One is Rodial Skin Care's range for menopausal women called Cougar. "I have never reviewed Rodial positively – I just think that the way they market their products is offensive to women and I have such a fundamental problem with them. I don't even want to open the jars."

At night, meanwhile, I use a heftier cleansing balm, and follow that with an acid peel. For this time of year, I like to bring out the big guns, and Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Extreme Pads (£7.47) are suitably uncompromising and give superb glow (as well as effectively treating breakouts). Expect some tingling, but avoid altogether if sensitive (Nip + Fab also does a regular version that you may find more tolerable).

Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Daily Cleansing Pads, £6.79, 60 pads, CF
You’ll find no scrubs on this list because I strongly believe exfoliating should be done with face cloths and acid solutions, rather than hard grains. Here, the edge is taken off highly effective glycolic and lactic acids with the addition of humectants like glycerin and hyaluronic acid. While excellent, these pads are not for the highly sensitive.
So to sum up, the products are so offensive to women that she would never dream of even opening a jar. Unless it's effective/a moneyspinner and in thatcase, throw in an affiliate link, and she's all in!

SH tweeted on Saturday that she doesn't dye her hair, in response to a feminist ishoo, how do I know then that she must use SLS free dye?
I have long found her irritating and inconsistent, but also unable to look away, so it's been interesting to finally read some other people have noticed. I've never understood how 'opinion' is considered 'journalism' but that was just the start of where she got up my nose. The smug Think Like Me Or Your Dumb articles, the 'my first disco I wore red lippy, a Smiths tshirt, and Channel No '5, the twitter buddy club love in. I did enjoy her doing Laverne's dirty work on the demise of The Pool - which apparently Laverne was oblivious to and barely troubled by.
It's all fascinating. Unreliable narrators, in love with their own cool, secure that they are Right about everything. And all for us to read everywhere on the various "socials".
I pay more attention to CH's advise - I like her more and her face is very movable. (I have been shook by the SH botox talk - I hadn't noticed, or believed it was all in the skincare. How naive of me).

I think CH was more likeable/relatable when she used to blog from her house. She now has an office and assistants and seems full of her own importance and is doing lots of paid ads and the money must be rolling in.
I always assumed nip and fab acid pads were too weak.2.8% the extreme ones are 5%.
The stronger Pixi glow pads are 20% and the pixi glow tonic 250mls at 5%.
So ad wise SH promotes nip and fab leaving Pixi to CH. Neat compromise.
All beauty bloggers use retin a. Yet very few are open and informative about this. Why? Because anyone who has used retin a knows just how much of a sham all that expensive crap, pushed for profit by bloggers, really is.
CH us hard to like now because she is too loud and aggressive and has sold out to designer brands. Before that when making the cheat sheets and retin a/ acid videos she was brilliant.
I'm really pleased new members are writing such good posts about the great fake vegan designer clad socialist with a massive allergy to #AD and clarity.

I've been observing this for a long time 
The Sali, Caitlin, India, Lauren love-in is amazing to watch - I was disappointed to see Hadley Feeman in the gang (Hadley did a bad interview with Laverne donkey's years ago - it's possible she's bezzies with SH and doesn't go near or by Lozza ), although I've been finding her quite superior lately. Her wokeness really ruined Fleabag for her didn't it?
Anyway, SH's massive columns about product under £15 was good. It's the other stuff that not bueno - but fascinating.
It made me laugh that she's writing for The Torygraph now. My my.
I keep meaning to say I've always assumed SH has a lazy eye (not correct medical term) or something - one is definately less open than the other. And because I've been looking at that I guess I haven't noticed the quizzical eyebrow.
