Here at etailPR HQ a new feature is going live. We want you to know all the hints and tips to having a great blog so we are beginning 'Guest Blogger Tips'.
Our first Guest to talk to us about 'How to Write a Good Review' is Hannah Williams from Hannah Rose. So without further ado, here is Hannah telling you all about how you can write the perfect review for you samples this month!!
Hi there! I’m Hannah, a beauty, fitness and fashion blogger
from Wales. I am a full time student studying English and Journalism (can you
tell I love to write?). I am always looking to write more, so I thought I would
get involved with etailPR and write this Guest Blog Post for them.
There are a million tips people can give you when their being
asked how to write a good review, I’m going to hit this subject on the head and
focus on the three main factors that I believe are important in writing a good
review.
Like a fairy tale, it must have a beginning, middle and an
end. Structure is key. Discuss why you purchased/attended the event and your
personal expectations then you can ease into the main body of the review.
Stating the pros and cons is crucial. Readers need to know what you loved about
it and what you didn’t love, otherwise how are they supposed to make their
minds up whether to purchase it or not? The ending is what you will leave
people on, so it needs to be on point and key to what you are reviewing, no waffling.
Concisely state your final thoughts so people understand and then they can
decide whether to purchase the product or not.
Also, you have to know who your audience is. Writing a toy
review catered for mums and dads will be different to writing a hair product
review for a beauty mad female. Think carefully about who it is you’re writing
for; does it need to be humorous or serious? Does it require more background
information? By writing correctly for your audience, you will receive more
traffic and followers that are suited to your blog. You will then gain loyal
followers who will integrate with your blog.
Lastly, and I believe most importantly, you need to be
honest. Whether it’s a sponsored/ paid post or just something you want to write
about, honesty is needed. If it is a paid or sponsored post, don’t think you
have to lie and say you loved it when you didn’t, simply send the company/the
brand an email explaining you disliked it and why and whether they still want
you to post it. Don’t forget to have respect for your own review and the
company you are writing about.

etailPR is proud to present our newest brand on the Blogger Network is internationally acclaimed hair brand Bombay Hair.
The mystery brand that has created so much hype this week is Bombay Hair!!
Bombay Hair is the hair brand that have captured the attention of celebrities all across the USA. As we revealed in our Teaser Blog Post, the likes of Lord Disick and Shay Mitchell have been papped using their hair tools.
Whilst Bombay Hair provide amazing styling tools, they also specialise in 100% Indian Remy Human Hair extensions offering both clip-in and tape-in options for application. Their exceptional quality is why they are the go-to brand for some major bloggers as well.
Check out Nyané Elebajoa rocking their Bombay Hair Ash Blonde 220gram/22" clip in extensions!! She has dyed them to match her awesome hair colour and they blend perfectly with her real hair!
Bombay Hair told us some reasons why their hair extensions are the best around!!
Bombay Hair extensions are 100% Indian Remy Human Hair. Indian hair is perfect for extensions because the hair cuticle is thin and therefore has the ability to blend in with most, if not all, hair types. Not only that, Indian hair also keeps its natural elasticity allowing curls to last longer and bounce unbelievably beautifully! Even more so, Indian hair easily holds hair products, as well preserves moisture, for an extended period of time - meaning, your hair style will look luscious and last longer with Indian hair! They also have little to NO silicone onto their hair - allowing for the best hair extension styling possible!
Remy hair extensions are considered the highest grade quality of human hair as the hair is responsibly sourced, hand picked and individually arranged in the same direction of growing hair - meaning the cuticles run downwards in order to prevent tangling. The process used by Remy standards to collect and arragen hair ensures that hair remains soft, silky, shiny and tangle free.
Bombay Hair are live on the etailPR Blogger Network right now!! If you have an Instagram following of 10k+ or a YouTube following of 5k+ then you may be ready to become a Bombay Bombshell! Log in, apply to be on the campaign, and get excited. Samples will be going live later this month but in the meanwhile keep an eye out for our very own etailPR Blogger Network Preview Sample Review!!!
Our lovely friends at Hazel and Kent sent us over a sample of one of the brands that they stock: Sence Copenhagen.
The earrings arrived in beautiful Sence Copenhagen gift packaging, wrapped in silky tissue paper and
placed inside a gorgeous ribbon handled gift bag. A real treat!
What was inside however was an even better treat!!
We were sent these stunning earrings that have a delicate grey coloured agate stone that dangles from a silver hook. We knew that stones have important meanings so we set about researching what these beautiful earrings would bring us - besides compliments !
It turns out that Grey Agate is the stone of balance. Agates are considered power stones and are grounding, solid and stable. They have excellent protective and healing energy and also help awaken your natural inherent talents apparently! We think these earrings sound like the perfect day-to-day stone to have to keep you grounded and solid at work, and if you have a cheeky after work date then you will be flaunting your natural talents - all whilst being impeccably accessorised!
We checked out more of the Sence Copenhagen range over on Hazel and Kent's website and we were very impressed! Not only do they have a great price point for semi-precious stones but the simple designs make the jewellery easy to pair with every outfit!
So if you are looking for some high quality earrings to match with your day to day outfits, or even if you want a simple present for somebody this summer, then hit up Hazel and Kent and search for Sence Copenhagen!
