We’re all au fait with the phenomenon that is blogging and more recently the debate that genuine bloggers are being replaced by companies falsely representing themselves. While carrying out some recent research for the top (as well as genuine) UK beauty bloggers I was surprised to come across so many uninspired sites featuring the same products, the same girly girly-tone and the same images of cupcakes and flowers.

However among the beauty blogging community there are a few gems. People who write with passion and energy, people that make you want to read their whole site from back to front.

Bloggers who truly love their subject matter stand out by a mile. However putting talented, passionate bloggers aside, here are some amusing articles I thought you’d all enjoy:
