What alot of the OG influencers don't understand is they are a privileged phenomenon. They got in at the right time, the right age demographic (YT users were mostly young adults in those days) and b/c it was a new medium and lack of competition at the time, they were able to cultivate their brand without fear of money/homelessness b/c they were fortunate to have a partner/parents to help them. They were selling an escapist curated version of their lives and brands seeing there was a new avenue outside of TV/Radio/Film flocked to this cheaper medium. Trips were freely given to further perpetuate the myth of their ideal lives. Looking back, many vlogs had the vibe of indie films/music videos without models/stunning actresses in the starring role. However we're now ten years later where these OG influencers are older with children/mortgage/husband and haven't realised what worked previously isn't going to fly anymore. The pandemic is raging on and they can't present an escapist/idealic life without breaking the rules or coming across as wildly out of touch which is what they are.
I don’t even understand why her daughter is in the toilet with her anyway? I go into the bathroom, do my business and then come back out and my daughter (who is the same age as Grey) is still doing whatever she was doing. Is Grey glued to Lily’s hip? I just don’t understand it
Especially with Rich there.... I am sadly not a parent myself but know a lot of parents who complain they can 'never go to the toilet alone', but with Lily it seems like yet another thing to moan about. Have we ever heard her say anything positive about being a mum?
Unfortunately I strongly suspect she has some sort of post natal depression. Which is actually really devastating but I am surprised no one close to Lily has picked up on it
Omg the temptation to type that back.... I know its catty but I like seeing beauty from beautiful women? Like why do I need the slightly tired and stressed girl next door with burnt hair showing me what to do? Don't get me wrong I'm no oil painting but I feel at this point I can make myself up better without Lily's tips, she's not aspirational at all in that area
She uploaded it at a really weird time. 7am on a Sunday...most people are still snoozing or they’ve woken up to actually do something like go for a run. Sure fire way to have a slow start to your video engagementLol!gleam asked her to do this beauty haul or she is trying to tell gleam that she is still a beauty blogger. Lol
Omg in 10 years time she will be no one told me how to explain period to my daughter.My Daughter is 3 and whilst she does sit and play on her own, she will sometimes come into the bathroom whilst I'm in there. I'm in a flat so its easier for her to do that as opposed to us living in a house. She has seen me use tampons and is now at the age where she asks me what they are, TBH I don't know how to explain them so just say I'll tell you when you're older
She said something like “she’s not supposed to see that”. I just don’t get what the huge deal is? I don’t mean to say that you need to teach your toddler about tampons of course, I just don’t see the problem if a toddler sees their mother using tampons.
