When I first started doing this, it was only to keep my toes in the beauty biz so I could ultimately land another full-time beauty editing gig. I knew I’d attract an audience (thanks Google!), but never really thought the amount would be anything significant. In fact, there was a time where I thought my only ‘regular’ would be my dad!
Anyhoo, I’m thrilled to bits that my li’l bloggetjie’s doing so well. I promised myself that I’d crack open a bottle of champers the day I got 1000 views in one day and that actually happened just yesterday. In fact, I got a cool 1 234! (How’s that for a ‘perfectly’ weird number?!)

In a lekker coinkydink, I didn’t have to bust open my precious String of Pearls semillon as I spent yesterday at a L’Oreal bash that included a Moet & Chandon champagne tasting. Is that, like, fate or what?
Anyway, this a v sincere thank you to all my regular visitors. I love reading your comments (even the snarky ones!) and getting to interact with you all on twitter. Beauty writing is a passion of mine, but being able to share it in ‘real time’ with so many is, like, beyond fabulous.
Love, love
Leigh

my most favourite-ist blog in the world, ever, in the history of ever.
Ag dankie cooks. I’ll NEVER get tired of hearing that. Ever! 😉 X x x
Sheeeeeeeet, that’s alot of views in one day, had no idea this blog was so popular, where’s all the comments, lol I actually like that hardly anyone comments so that means you read mine, har har 😛
Well I’m not suprised, I discovered your blog in December and spent a couple hours going through your archives and now I check it every day, sometimes twice a day *grin*
Keep up the good work gorgeous.
I know! I often look and my numbers (esp on certain v popular posts) and think ‘but where’re the comments?’ I then have to remind myself that there are certain sites I visit every bloody day and have never bothered to leave a comment. I just like to get my li’l fix and then move ;-p Thanks for the love babe! X x

Congrats Leigh!! All that champagne popping over the weekend was a bit premature. Although one should never need an excuse to pop a bottle of bubbles. Well done!

CONGRATS!! I read your blog EVERY day during lunchbreak… and chuckle like a mad thing…

Congrats babe!:) Well earned and you deserve it.
You should do something with that lucky number 1 234. Like maybe spend that amount in rand value on shoes or a certain face cream. Just a thought;-)
much love for all you’re doing for me.

Awesome stuff ladyguy! If I had known this, I would have made you ride that Elephant (Rhino? Hippo? can’t remember) on Monday 🙂
