Well hello! I don’t really know where to start other than to say i’m sorry for not being consistent on the blog. One minute I’m here posting my reviews then I disappear for weeks on end. I guess you could say that “Life Happened”…
If you have followed my blog since 2012 (thank you and please leave me a comment if you are an OG reader), you will probably remember that I would blog every…single…day. For years and years and years, up until about 2 years ago.
Instagram Reels and Tik Tok became massive and suddenly short form video content was what more and more brands were looking for. Now, I love creating videos, I think it is the perfect way to show all the beauty products and launches that I talk about but I also love the written word and how a blog post is evergreen. A blog post can be referred back to and searched for years after it has been posted, whereas short form content disappears as quickly as it was posted.
Add to that a change in lifestyle, periods of illness, stress and menopause and here we are…. but! I would love to bring this blog back, posting about new beauty launches, sharing useful menopause tips and all other kinds of beauty news. I guess all I need to know from you is… Do you still read blogs?
Let me know below.
Love Sharon xx
I love reading your blogs as well as seeing all the video beauty hacks you do
I’m afraid I don’t read them anymore, life is just too busy. If I’m having a quiet day I might read the odd one but generally I don’t even have time some days to watch reels, let alone read blogs! It’s a shame because as an ex-blogger I have a reasonable idea how much effort goes into making that content, and I feel bad for those still putting all that effort in!!
Hi Sharon. I would love to read your blog. Xx
Yes – I’m really into Substack – I enjoy reading articles
I’m more a vlog than blog person now Sharon! I blame wfh for that. I no longer have commutes to catch up and read but do love blogs for referring back x
I love blogs and I’m trying to get the time back to be able to read and enjoy them! I’m hoping to start writing on my blog again later this year. I don’t want blogs to disappear!
