Today's Sunday snippet features the lovely Julie who is a beauty blogger on a budget. I love popping in for her recent posts, where i catch up on all the bargains she has found.
1. Can you tell us a little about yourself?
My name is Julie and I'm 28. I am a secondary
school teacher and I have a little boy, Conor who is my life! Blogging
is one of my favourite hobbies!
2. How did you get into blogging and why?
I actually started out on YouTube in 2009 and at that time, everyone
more or less had a blog to go with their channel. After my channel was
deleted, I fell out of the whole blog/video thing but I felt this was a
good year to start back and I did!
3. What do you do when you aren't working on the blog?
When I'm not working on my blog, I'm cleaning or
redecorating our home or looking after Conor. My partner often brings
me for long romantic drives to Penneys where I shop away to my heart's
content! I try to make my posts well in advance so I can fit in videos
too. I would say I exercise but I don't haha.
4. Are you a full time blogger?
No part time unfortunately. I definitely don't have the time to blog
full time and work because my work comes home with me in the evening and
can last until all hours. I would love to live the dream where blogging
would be my income and although I have a small income off it, its
nothing to rely on yet. I usually use my blog revenue to buy makeup to
review again......vicious circle!!
5. How do you keep coming up with content for the blog?
I look everywhere and anywhere. One of my recent posts is about having
my Christmas Shopping done already so I literally pick things from the
air that are relevant. I think of things that my friends and I would
read and run with it.
6. Name some of the bloggers you look up to and why?
I think we all love Cherry Sue. I love how she made her blog work for
her and was able to pay for her sons college fees because of it. She
inspired us all I suppose, to just keep going because we all can get to
where she is eventually!
7. Name the top blogs you read?
Cherry Sue doin the do, chasingrubieschasingpearls, makeupandbeauty.ie,
facesbygrace, Ninasbargainbeauty and fluffandfripperies. They are the
few off the top of my head but I literally follow so many more and
especially those around the Munster area.
8. Why do you read those blogs?
I suppose I relate to the girls a lot and I like the way their content is really diverse.
9. Tell us something we don't know about you?
I once taught blogging as an extra curricular in a school.
