Blogger Interview #1: Jemma

Every since I started blogging, I've met a lot of bloggers. There are so many wonderful blogs out, but with this big blogging community not a lot of people know some blogs exist. So I have decided to start a series on my blog called Blogger Interviews. I will be interviewing bloggers who inspire me, who are new to blogging, and just because I think this will be a fun experience!
So here's my first interview. I think this one is perfect to start off my series! Jemma blogs at dorkface.co.uk She is one of my favorite bloggers out here. Not only is she a great blogger, but she is a nice person as well. So keep reading, if you want to know a little more about her! 
 
 


 
1. How long have you been blogging?

Just over 1 year, I started March 2014 :)
 
2. What inspired you to start a blog?

I spent my time reading so many and I finally decided to start one and stick to it; Which I'm so glad I did!
 
3. What goals do you have for yourself and your blog?

I'd like my blog to help me grow in terms of my career. I'd like to be self employed through working in social media, selling my artwork, and running my blog :)
 
4. Where do you see your blog in the next year?

Hopefully it will have continued to grow, maybe even reached 3000 followers?! Who knows. I'd love it if my blog is was an inspiring place for people to visit.
 
5. Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?

Maybe moved to another city, or country! I'd like to buy a home and be married to my boyfriend, who I live with. I'd like to have finished writing my book, and working for myself. But I definitely still see me being creative :)
 
6. What have you learned since you started blogging?

To be yourself! Everyone's quirks and unique traits are very welcomed in the blogging world, and it makes you more relatable! Also never underestimate the power of helping someone and being nice - it could make a huge difference.
 
7. What are the positives and negatives of blogging?

Positives - Staying creative, finding purpose, making new friends, discovering a whole community, going to events, inspiring others.
Negatives- ... Hmm.. Keeping up sometimes is hard. You have to stay on track I think.
 
8. Would you want to turn this hobby into a career in the future?

I'm already in the process! :)
 
9. Are you influenced by other bloggers?

Of course! There's a whole world of people out there and bloggers help me get to know different races, ages, genders, cultures and hobbies! It opens my eyes and always inspires me :)
 
10. Has blogging changed you? (Have you made any friends or experienced new things)

Definitely! I am SO different to who I was just over a year ago. I am so much more positive, determined and brave! I've made close blogging friends, I've changed my career and I've found my purpose. I am so much happier now, and a very positive person. I never used to be like this :)
 
Thank you so much Jemma for letting me interview you! I hope you all enjoyed reading this post!

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no one was r

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I ha
