Had To Say…

January 31st, 2008 by sarah

All day I’ve been reading about the New York Times article about how beauty bloggers are only after free swag and that their reviews are biased towards the companies who give them the products.  I’m a fresh face in the beauty blogging world, and while free products would be great (it would save me a ton of money), I would still give my 100% honest opinion about the product.  It’s the whole reason why I wanted to start blogging about beauty.  If you are a beauty junkie, fashion obsessed or whatever you are ALWAYS on the prowl for great products and you WANT honest reviews.  Not everyone will agree and not all products will work the same for everyone, but that’s what blogging is about.  It’s a chance to voice your opinion and hopefully people will get something out of it.  I feel really bad for the bloggers who were attacked in the NY Times article, but I feel that this won’t affect the beauty blogging community in any way.

About Cupcakes Taste Nice

My lust for beauty products has been around since I was a kid. I always wanted the most eye catching packaging and the sweetest scents. As a preteen I could not wait to get my first pimple so that I could try out the different acne products that were marketed to me in magazines and on TV. As I got older I just loved the girlie side of wanting to look and feel pretty. I love taking a shower on Saturday morning and having a plethora of products to choose from depending on my mood that day. I anticipate my beauty and style magazines coming in the mail so I can read and research new products. I even spend hours on the internet searching for factual reviews of the latest and greatest products.
