27 Most Powerful UK Beauty Bloggers:
Here at blow LTD, we’re obsessed with beauty (in case you didn’t notice). So, it’s safe to say we spend a lot of time with our noses pressed to the screens of our laptops, avidly watching our favourite bloggers share their beauty secrets. To honour the ladies who fuel our beauty addiction through thick and thin, we’ve rounded up the top 27 beauty bloggers in the UK, ranked with stats from Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Youtube, and our own Fast Beauty score (we’ve done the science bit so you don’t have to.)
There are plenty who dabble in beauty blogging, but here are the beauty-istas who’ve built entire industries around their names, bang-on recommendations, fast and furious insider knowledge, and an unadulterated love of product and styling tips (with an increasing number showing us love for our salon at home service).
Ladies, we salute you…
