Has anyone else noticed on the Adore Home Page that Adore is looking for roving reporters to write an editorial on new products you have discovered, New Brands or Even new application tips you have learned.
The best editorial each month will be published on Beauty IQ and the writer of the best article will receive a small goodie bag.
I want to be a roving reporter... Now I just have to find something fabulous to write about!!

My article is going to have to be written at night. With a pot of tea in Laura's Teapot (LB's little one) and complete quiet around the house. I'm not telling what I am going to write about as I want it to be a surprise.

Do it VeeE, showing your writing is nothing compared to what we have discussed on the forum and if you think about it we are all actually writing when we post! We have talked about everything from Gina's to nervous breakdowns so we really aren't going to be overly shocked by anything you write. I personally would love to read anything you write. I think you have very valid things to say and great insight into the beauty field.

I agree VeeE, go for it!
PS, I always laugh when I see "Gina"!

Wow, thanks Pcc!! The thing that I'm afraid of though is not what I would write as such, but people would know that I put time and effort in, and I would be afraid that they'd think it was crap or badly written!! Ohh, I'm just being a big baby! I might do it once I've seen a few of these roving articles!

Don't worry about that VeeE - I am a writer and used to feel that all the time but you get used to it - besides, if team Adore chose to publish it then it means it is a great piece of writing! Go for it! I am dying to try too but cannot decide where to start...:typing:

I want to have a go too! Put my old journalism skills to the test. I speak the good English, and that.

I write for work and have had a few things published but it can still be nerve-wracking. Everything sounds so good until you think about someone else reading it, lol.

So true! I think I am still scarred from when my teacher accused me of enterting work that wasn't mine in a national competition and won it when i was younger - made me quite shy about it all!

Well if anyone is unsure of how/what to write I say just get some ideas from other beauty articles.
Ozlicious

Or just brainstorm - "what would I love to read in the beauty section of a mag?"

Found a pic in the latest Myer Emporium magazine that I love. The actual eye makeup is a little pinkier than it appears in this scan. Would be a great one to copy for Beauty Reporter considering the lips would be easily matched by a Harlotte colour!
The look talks about a flawless skin with smokey eyes giving a "60's sex-kitten effect" but using added shimmer to create a modern contrast against the matte base. Bronzer and pale lipstick complete the look.

That look makes me wish I was a brunette!
That is stunning, If I tried to do my eyes like that I would look like I had been in a fight :chuckle:

Oooh, actually, her colouring are pretty spot on with mine, my eyes are just a bit greener :chuckle:
Luisa Brown
10-03-2008, 09:46 PM
They actually look greener in the pic Loola!

Ah, I should find my Emporium and check, her's look browny green, mine are cat eye green.
Luisa Brown
10-03-2008, 09:51 PM
Yeah, not like yours but certainly a bit lighter than the scan. It's a great look isnt it? Try to dig yours out to see.

Yeah I love the look! And the beanie.
