Yay For Beauty Blogs!
2008-02-18 15:21:00 Copyright 2008 SavvySkin.comI got the new edition of one of my favorite beauty magazines yesterday, and excitedly read it cover-to-cover at Starbucks. As I was reading it, I had a sense of deja vu. I had already read about almost every new product the magazine was featuring, and there was a brief blurb about the recall of Jan Marini’s Age Intervention Eyelash, which I had written about a few months back. It dawned on me that I had read about the new perfumes, makeup, and skin care products, not from other magazines, but from my fellow beauty blogs! A lot of beauty blogs report on new products the minute they find out about them, which is a month or two before they actually get printed in the magazines. Before I got the idea to start my blog, I hadn’t actually seen a single beauty blog, so I didn’t really know they existed. Now I read tons of blogs every day, and have realized how valuable blogs are for getting news out to people (even if the news is just about ... More About: Beauty , Blogs
