How things have changed in such a short time

Hi everyone

I have been out for a long walk over the woods with the kids today. It was nice to get away from work for a while but it led to a little reflection whilst sitting watching the kids playing in the stream, don't panic yourselves it was a stream not Niagara Falls and I was sitting right there, I started to think of whe I first started to blog. I had read a lot of beauty blogs, you tubers and such, I suppose I thought I would model my own on that type of thing as it clearly works for them so why not?!? Well it doesnt work for me, not because I don't enjoy reviewing products, I really do, but how much make up do I really use and need on a day to day basis. The truth is I try a lot of stuff but I always go back to the same stuff I love. I refuse to waste my hard earned money on crap I dont need for the sake of a review.

That all being said I will still do reviews but only if I happen to find something that I've not tried before that replaces on of my firm favourites. I also try a lot of samples of professional products for my beauty business. In an industry that grows this fast its really not good to be left behind so I continually have samples sent out to me. Then I kind of relish the review process because I could never find very much that related to the moblie section of the industry and I am a bit, ok a lot fussy when it comes to using companies. Customer service wins me over big time, we get such a ruff deal in the customer service department and with no good reason, Im afraid you use poor sevice you loose my custom, end of. I will pass on all the info I gather from each company so it helps narrow down the possibilities for others, hopefully.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I found blogging so hard before and I couldn't understand why, all of these top bloggers and youtubers are so in love with what they do and I was convinced I loved that too so why wasn't I finding it that easy, I shifted my focus and found that every waking moment of the day I am either working in a job I adore or working on my job, my business, my baby, so why not blog about that. I love beauty fact finding, new ingredients, packaging, tans, skincare, nail specialists and when I first started I had no clue so if this gives just one new mobile therapist a little nudge of encouragement and steer into the right direction then I will be one happy lady. I may be a bit rambley at times but hey thats how I do it, if the inspiration strikes me then I pick up the Ipad and start tapping away at the keys, this gives me so much pleasure now.

I finally love what I blog.

Lots of Love to you all

Mrs G xxx
