The title is just to get your attention.  Actually, I was to title it "Stupid, Ignorant, and Just Plain Idiotic: The Unknown Beauty Blog".  For my regular readers you may have been wondering the silence of this blog and my silence around social media.  Well, let's say my brain became TIRED!!!

Ignore the Cosmetic Chemists: Beauty Gurus are the Experts

*Post originally written by Olivia J on The Unknown Beauty Blog. If you read this post elsewhere, it has been stolen. *


As a Z-List beauty blogger for 7 years I have seen the changes in the beauty blogging field.  Many have gained great followings and brand collaborations due to their creativity to use several unnecessary products of makeup.  They have become “artists” and “experts” in their field.  Sometimes, many have become experts in other fields (without any qualifications) thanks to their growing channel on YouTube.

This Cat is Dandy - A Marketing Footnote

*Post originally written by Olivia J on The Unknown Beauty Blog.*

this isn't my cat but it sure is a dapper one!

This post has purposely been titled way off the mark of beauty blogging.  I want it to insignificantly rank low in my blog posts for Google search.  This post has to do with Mally Beauty, PR, and beauty blogging.

The Hits and the misses. My beauty blog is 7 (lucky? or unlucky?) years old this month.  In the beginning I have read posts on how to make my blog better and how to get the attention of PR.  Oh yeah, all that reading and, honestly, it was bullshit!

The Unpaved Beauty Blogging Road

*Post originally written by Olivia J on The Unknown Beauty Blog.*


By now, the road of this beauty blog stands at a personal one. I have given over 200% of myself on the majority of these posts including ones I really didn’t want to write up. With the way beauty blogging is going, to say I have given up is close to the truth.

If I Could Do My Beauty Blog Over

Where Is Olivia - Can You Find Her?

*Post originally written by Olivia J on The Unknown Beauty Blog.*


Like Where's Waldo, I am wearing a knitted cap, striped shirt, and tight black pants! I guess you are wondering where I am.  Well, I think you can tell I have nothing to write about. Actually, that is not true.  I do have some thoughts to write about but it is more of a philosophical view on beauty and makeup.  You could say it is a boring or more of a psychological view of it.

TANVEER NASIR STOP SCRAPING MY BLOG!!!

http://maquillageobscur(.)blogspot(.)com


I was all set to do another Definitive Makeup Guide.  It would have been about facial contouring, highlighting, and the ever so important facial symmetry.  But as hard as I tried, I could not move forward with it because something in the back of my mind kept echoing -- RESPECT!! Yes, cue the Aretha Franklin song!

The End or Start of My Makeup Journey

*Post originally written by Olivia J on The Unknown Beauty Blog. If you see this post elsewhere, it has been cancelled.*


I know I said I needed a break, a long one, and I do.  I just didn't want to leave the blog hanging with a stupid non-picture post.  I know it sounds silly and ridiculous but the internet is the norm for stupid and silly!  I also want to thank you all for commenting on that post.  I couldn't write a reply because my eyes would start to well up with tears.  I apologize for not replying.

The other day I was drinking a yummy and fattening milkshake.  It was absolutely the most dreamy and creamy strawberry that my mind forgot all about the day’s troubles.  I sighed when I slurped the last bit of it and then I thought, what about my dreamy creamy tiny wish list of makeup?

Can I brag? Wait, why should I ask for permission? After all, everyone else seems to brag about their great beauty hauls and great swag on their blogs and YouTube.  I have neither to brag about.  I just want feel proud for writing so many non-review beauty posts in my 6 years of blogging.  Mind you, they were not easy; I wrote them to keep this blog alive which sometimes leads to stupid misadventures.
