Tanya Burr #18 Run out of money so back to where it started. The only thing she was remotely good at.

I agree with the different points made on this topic. You can't do much about your genes. But I wasn't comparing Tanya to 35-year-olds who lucked out genetically, but to what I expect (and see) women in that age group to look like, which is a generalization, of course, and includes women with all kinds of face shapes, skin problems, personal habits, etc. I think women / people can hold on to healthy good looks for very long in our society, at least if they are not afflicted with poverty, extreme workload, or addiction. Even celebrities who smoke and tan manage to keep their skin looking good. And this is what surprised me. Tanya has a very comfortable life, works in the beauty industry (in a way), and has access to all kinds of "help" with skin and body issues. And yet she doesn't look great, sometimes even unwell. It's weird to see her advertising makeup kits worth hundreds of pounds when her own looks don't suggest that they work in any way. I know a lot of content produced by influencers is "fake." The use of filters and editing makes people look better than they do naturally. But at the same time we have a lot of tools to actually look good. And I'm not talking about luxury products or clinical procedures but simple, accessible things like diet, general lifestyle, and reasonably priced skincare with active ingredients. I've heard so many women say, their skin in their thirties and forties is better than it was in their twenties due to better skincare, and this has been my experience as well. That's why it surprised me to see Tanya not looking as good as I would expect from someone of her age and her privileges. And she has been getting procedures, so where are the results / benefits?

There’s an interesting question in this — do influencers owe it to the consumer to look good, or is it ultimately up to the consumer to decide whether they will be influenced by a specific influencer?

hope that makes sense 😅

Unrelated, but I haven't watched her recent few vlogs, so idk what exactly she’s shilling these days. I can say I’d never buy any of the clothes she shills because she makes them look bad simply because nothing is ironed, everything is wrinkly and not paired well (to me). I definitely don’t see Tanya as a fashion influencer in any capacity, but it seems that’s what she’s trying to break into. Does anyone else get the sense that she’s actually very insecure about her natural fashion sense (or lack thereof)? Hence why she copies entire outfits from others, down to the tiniest details…I will never forget the insane outfits she used to wear in the Britcrew days 🥴

That's exactly how I took your post - if I had Tanya's money and privileges, I think my jawline would have seen a quality treatment already. Likewise, I wouldn't walk around with such a terrible dye job and migrating filler. Baffling really that she doesn't get it dissolved.
Ages ago, she used to have this shadow over her upper lip from hyperpigmentation. A lot of people also commented back then that they'd have gotten it lasered if they had the money. And this was during a time when Tanya was very popular on YT and certainly would have had the money as well.

Yeah, but I think I wouldn't even notice a double chin or slight jowls if that person had glowing skin or a general good look otherwise. You would just think, okay, she has a double chin but she still looks great! Like someone who looks great with a fuller figure or something else considered a flaw by strict beauty rules. Tanya just generally looks meh at the moment.

Genetics does play a part in aging, but 60-70% of it is down to lifestyle choices. Hers have been bad. Too much sugar, alcohol, fillers and bleach. Not enough exercise. That's the real reason she looks rough.
 
Can’t help but notice the view counts decreasing tho…she’s still getting numbers but it doesn’t seem like she is keeping people

She offers absolutely nothing to the viewers beyond mildly satieting some curiosity about her life, which is an endless parade of bragging about her getaways and lunches that feels like you're stuck in some fancy Groundhog Day.

She's unrelatable and her content is boring, so it doesn't even provide entertainment, and lacks any sort of point, so it's useless.

it barely lasted for even half the length of her first vlog. she thinks she can follow zoe's formula but the difference is that for all of zoe's faults, she didn't abandon her audience for 5 years. I don't agree with her choice to do this at all but she also shows her kids, whereas tanya will just post random montages of faceless herb running around and it's boring. and anyone curious about her new partner knows by now she will not be showing him. zoe's vlogs at least have a cast of characters with alfie and their families. there's no intrigue to watching her waffle about alone for 40 mins in wrinkly ill-fitting clothes flitting flitting from her cramped house to PR lunches she doesn't deserve invites to. and the whole time it's just shaky b-roll footage.

I think a large part of Tanya's appeal on early YT was this "homely" style and vibe she gave, it made a good contrast to e.g. Zoe. She baked, pottered around the house and then did some make-up tutorials or went out. If you want to call it that, it could serve as very early tradewifey-ish content (and the lizard was the control freak behind the woman). It's something that many like viewing, it's cozy and frankly, Tanya's fuller figure back then also held some appeal, it just seemed approachable.
Zoe, otoh, has always swung between extremely hyper content (silent, open-mouthed cry-laughing) and being an absolute sloth. Her storylines are absolutely random, but what makes it cohesive to viewers is the stream of family members that simply have to live as being part of the cast.
Now take Tanya: she disappeared for five years from that main audience, no longer shows the content that held some appeal in the first place and she is not showing her partner and her baby. I support the latter point very much, but what it leaves her with it exactly that BIB from above. She is just some woman waffling on about random parts of her day that are not accessible to the viewers (baby, partner) or that inaccessible due to other reasons (PR launches).

I've always found Tanya to be a total snob too. As usual with these types of influencers/creators, they market themselves as relatable when they're anything but. Zoe might have her flaws and she's as privileged as the rest of them but at least she has some likeability (in my opinion), Tanya is just an arrogant, stuck-up air head. She abandoned the platform that made her famous because she was deluded enough to think the acting would work out, she thought she was too good for her fans and it has backfired. It serves her right if you ask me. You can't just turn your back on something and expect to be welcomed back with open arms.

Zoe is lazy, entitled and out of touch.
