3 Things That Annoy Me With Social Media

 
Social media is great for networking,  meeting people, sharing your unpopular opinions, promoting yourself and creating friendships. Well those are the great things about social media and the downside is cringeworthy. But with every positive, comes a negative right? 

To Follow Or Not To Follow
Have you ever been followed by someone, only to have them unfollow you minutes after? Like how did this even start and why is it still happening for that matter. Before I continue, I’m not talking about unfollowing when you lose interest in their social media. For example, it happens often with follow threads. First off, these threads are here to help everyone grow a following. The rules are simple: Retweet this tweet and then follow everyone who retweets as well. Half of the people don’t bother following back and then the other half follows you momentarily. Honestly why bother even participating in the thread. But what’s even worst, is when someone just wants to build their following so they follow all of these accounts just to unfollow after they get the follow back. It’s I understand you want to grow your Twitter or more so Instagram, but there is a right way to do things. 

Since When Did Makeup Become A Crime
We all have our own opinions about certain situations that are going on in the world. Right now I don’t mean politics, I’m talking about makeup. Clearly a lot of people are concerned with everyone “caking their faces” instead of real issues. For me I think it’s ridiculous. I mean everyone has a right to their own thoughts, but there’s a way to do it. You don’t have to be rude about it either. So what if someone loves makeup, it’s an art of expression. I’m that great with makeup, but I love seeing other people living their life and showing off their talents with makeup. Makeup is not a crime. If you wear makeup that’s awesome, if you don’t you’re awesome.

The Amount Of Followers Shouldn’t Matter
I’m sure it’s nice to have a large following on social media. That’s great and all, but people with a small following matter too. I’m writing this to bash influencers and or bloggers with a bigger following, this is for companies who feel micro influencers do not matter. Have you ever found a great opportunity that fits your interests and you would be a perfect fit? But then as you keep reading you need to have a following of 25k or 300k. It’s like smaller accounts are important too, we use the same products or clothing. Why should one review be more important than the other. 


Thank you for reading my post! Is there anything that annoys you about social media, that I did not mention?

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask!  Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back).                                ...

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 ...
