Well as some of you may have read last week, It annoys me to no end when I see bloggers “asking” for free things (whether they are kidding or not) and I figured something had to be done about it. Well, I am happy to announce that Nadine Haobsh of Nadine Jolie, Patrice of Afrobella, Erika of MakeupBag and myself have decided to do something about it. We have formed Bloggers With Integrity, which will be setting industry standards for bloggers. I can’t talk too much about it other than that, but we are really excited, dedicated to the cause and looking forward to helping readers and brands alike to distinguish between people that live it, love it, breathe it and those that are just in it for the freebies. Trust me, with a never ending web of beauty blogs out there…the lines are really blurred these days, so it’s hard to tell.
To that end, Nadine was interviewed by Women’s Wear Daily last week and we all got a mention! Full article in the gallery below….
