Couldn't she have addressed the news about Catherine more graciously, rather than going in on the media strategy of the Royal staff? All she needed to say was a few words of support, but of course she has to sound like the angry aggressive twit she is.

Lmao she knows nothing about strategy (as evident in her incessant kit roll outs and app business), let alone media strategy. Why is she even commenting on something she knows nothing about.

Did Jim come from money? That’s why he never had to work all his life and could pursue his stupid little “musician career”?

Don't think so, she's waxed lyrical about how hard it was in the early days when their family was young and she was working at least a couple of jobs to make ends meet.

Someone has to look after Hirons Towers in Somerset, so that's his current 'employment'.

I remember Ruth saying how thick the walls are in her old house, the room’s are also large and airy so it must be hugely expensive to heat during the colder weather . Jim’s probably in charge of the coal fires and woebetide him if they die out.
 
Wow I can’t believe the Admin on FB have the nerve to use the lovely Lisa as a way to sell their app! 😮

She should have never released a brand. She should have stuck to the blog and the kits selling brands and products she has used and recommended for years. The odd new product from a brand she loves would have been fine or more promotion of indie brands which she liked but might be hard for some people to source.

The Skin Rocks boxes should have been cheaper 4/5 product kits.

Her 'inclusion' of people with disabilities as the only reason for someone WFH is based on her own bigotry, assuming 'disability' means a poor soul in a wheelchair, unable to even push themselves into the next room. Which is just patronising all round.

The one big reason to allow WFH for roles where it is appropriate is because remote working is the single greatest invention for those with caring responsibilities ie women. For a woman who likes to trill about supporting women, by banning WFH for her entire team she's effectively cutting out recruiting any women with young children or aging parents - employees who might need time off to take someone else for medical appointments, who might need to start at 9.15 after the school run or slip off between 3 and 4pm, but who are likely to be more loyal and dedicated to an employer who enables them to balance their lives.

But she doesn't want that - she wants cheap young people with no other demands on their time, so she can make them work as late as she wants and screech at them to bring her tea every five minutes. And while we're on that topic, who the duck is expected nowadays to bring their boss cups of tea? It's demeaning, no one does this anymore.

At heart she's really just a 1970s middle aged chauvinist man in a bad wig.

Can you tell she's fucked me off too? 😂

A lot more succinct that my ramblings 🤣

Oo I must take a look at the group.
Gone are the days of the Freaks having a Hirons saintly candle at their altar of Hirons branded tat merchandise.
I love it when someone asks for a product recommendation on there and the majority recommend other brands. There’s always one or two brown nosers who say Skin Rocks while tagging in Hirons but thankfully they are on the minority.

So what do we think the April kit is crowdfunding for? More Stella power suits? Or does Hirons Georgian Somerset mansion need decorating? 😜😆

You forgot her vast beautiful necklace collection 🤣

And not even mentioning her name!
There's only 4 years between the oaf and Lisa, says it all really
My skin tint arrived this morning as soon as I've given it a go I'll update you x

I got the LE skin tint and I love it. Very easy to apply, manages to take my redness down but still doesn’t look like makeup. Also because it’s got a lot of hydrating ingredients it plumps up any dehydrated bits. And it plays well with my sunscreen (and I use 2 fingers face, 2 fingers neck and dec) It’s going to last for 100 years too, because you don’t need much. I’m going to try using a brush for heavier coverage tomorrow.

I sent her a DM on Facebook, her team were fab. I was asked to send a selfie so sent them a recent photo. They suggested a couple of shades T6 or T7. I was then asked to look at the models and which one closely resembled my skin.(T6) I was then asked to send a couple more so they could double check which I did and they agreed

I'm usually caspers friendly ghost/ice white/shade palest of pale I've tried it on my jaw and cheek and it's spot on x

What appealed was it was adaptive. I'm going to go to liberty in the next few months to get shade matched for her foundation as a lot of the sample cards were out of stock
 
Did any of you watch Dragons Den this week? There was a skincare app on it. You could scan your product barcodes and create a beauty shelf. You would be notified of any offers available on your products. There was a community aspect to it. No investment though and it was costing millions.
