Wow! Oh my god! Want!

What a perfect idea!

Candles don't normally tempt me in the slightest, but this looks gorgeous.

Oh I usually love your blog and read it every day, but the girl riding the penis thing in the name of promoting 'benefit' cosmetics is repugnant... and sorry to say your 'blog for hire' is leaving my list...

Actually Anon, I'm glad to see you go if that is the sum of your contribution. This blog is such an endeavour that takes up more time than I can tell you, and I have given up paid print jobs in order to blog more and to a better standard. I can't live on air, and the majority of the 100K readers are totally fine with it. So, your unpleasant sex association and your vile attitude says far more about you I think than it does about me and my blog.

Candle sounds amazing and is a lot cheaper than I would have expected!

I HAVE to buy one of theses. I love the smell of coffee, although not too strong which I assume this candle would be.

As for the comment from Anonymous not everyone gets just how much hard work building and maintaining a blog is. Not only the work involved but the costs too. Domains and hosting aren't free. We have to pay for those so why shouldn't you make money from it? You don't pick up a copy of vogue and blast them for having adverts and drooling over products. It's the way it all works, if people didn't do it then no one would know about any product.

Also, I am now of the belief that if you hide behind "anonymous" then you your opinion means shit. If you've not got anything better to do with your time than leave anonymous comments all over the place then you're in need to a life and STAT!

I for one love the blog...keep it coming!

Just wanted to agree with both yours and Rachael's responses to the anonymous troll.

I had intended on putting in a comment to them myself, but you guys have said it much more concisely, and politely than I ever would have... and also, I'm trying to give up feeding trolls for Lent! x

Just one thing Jane - through out the whole post you're spelling "Douwe Egberts" as "Duowe Egberts" - it won't help the Google search ;)

britishbeautyblogger said...

Anna, thank you!! all changed xx

Isn't it funny how some people have nothing better to do than hide behind anonymous tags and troll?

"Waaaaah, a blogger who spends a lot of money on items she bought herself to review, hosting for the website, time, and more is making a little of it back by putting up an advert. ;-;"

Maybe if you spent less time pretending you were Freud and assuming every object is phallic and a little more time untwisting your knickers you wouldn't be so miserable.

BBB, stay fantastic, trolls like this aren't worth your time. They're worthless people who contribute nothing on the internet and probably contribute about the same amount as worth to society as they do here. Pity really.
