Morning lovelies :-)

I am curious as to how you all came across this amazing site?

For me it was around one year ago when I was 'googling' information about my condition Adnemioses as well as information on migraine remedies & waalaa...up pop a review from our wonderful super hero Kirsty (Chikoboo) about Badgar Headache Soother. Her review was fabulous as always & I signed up. Needless to say that I've been hooked ever since and my life has changed for the better in more ways than one :-) xxx

Right back, when the site first started (I think it was a few months if not weeks old) the Queen told me about it. I was pretty excited about this but thought I'll be bored with beauty products after a few days. Hahahah I was so wrong. Learning every day something new and it is actually fun *grin* I think the Queen and her royal party has done well.

I came across beauty review by searching for sample's and freebie's, that's how I also got onto subscription boxes.

I saw it on facebook. You know how when you like certain pages and then it pops up with stuff you may like as well? Yeah, well I saw this page. At first I thought it sounded dodgy but once I joined up, I realised how totally wrong I was about that!

I heard about it on zm a year ago. I'm a sucker for freebies. Didn't take long for it to become sooooo much more than a place to score freebies though. It's my favourite website but it's more than that it really is an online community.

I saw a girl posting on some or other makeup page on Facebook, clicked the link and knew I had to be in the land of pink ;) I had just started getting into real makeup and all the girls posted about NARS, Urban Decay and things I couldn't afford. The site looked really attractive and informative and well, here I am ever since. Couldn't be happier I came across BR.

I was doing research on product I was looking to purchase and this site came up. I was thrilled that there were multiple reviews on this site. And then I saw that you could sign up and get products sent to you to review so I did. Over the next few months I realized that getting sent a product to review only happens once in a blue moon for me but I still found the product reviews very imformative as well the forum for getting answers to various beauty dillemas and other things. And those are main things I appreciate about this site why I come on here.

I had been trying to look for reviews on something, which I was having no luck for whatsoever! I then came across a post on instagram with someone talking about beautyreview and they told me I should check it out, so here I am! Never looked back aaannd I finally found reviews on the product I was looking for :)

I actually have no clue how I stumbled across it (my memory is terrible).  I'm guessing I was reasearching some product I was planning on purchasing as I always research before making beauty purchases and this is the perfect place for that :)

Great question! Like some of the other ladies, I had BR PPP up on facebook as one of those pages I might be interested in. I ignored it the first few times I saw it and then my curiosity got the better of me and the rest is history;)

I had seen BR on Facebook and joined up one day but it wasn't till months later that I really realised what it was all about and got really into it, now I would be lost without it! I love jumping on and checking out the forum, articles and product reviews! Is defiantly my go to place I have learnt so much as well as trying new stuff that I never knew exsisted like memebox, I just got my first memebox (pinkaholic) yesterday in the post and it is amazing! BR has turned into my social media of choice I would much rather jump on here than Facebook I found it to be a great getaway! :)

I came across BR somewhere online.  I was reading something, like a magazine and the article referred to BR.  Aroused my curiosity.

I only recently came across this gem and haven't managed to go a day without checking it yet! I think I first came across it when I was looking to see if there were reviews for foundations and tanning places. I'm always so bad at spending money so I have to shop around thoroughly beforehand. Haha. I've found my match.

I found out about BR through a friend.  She was raving on FB about a moisturiser she was using, I asked her where she got it, and she said she was trialling it through BR.  Being a curious monkey I had a wee looky loo and found myself signing up.  I don't think a day has passed that I haven't been on the site since - and that'd be a good 18 months ago.  Love me my daily BR fix.  It's as important as coffee in my books :)

I think I saw an ad on the side of a facebook page. I joined because I was looking for a review on a super super expensive product and none of the reviews I found were up to scratch, and then there came this website, where I got exactly what I wanted to hear!

I seen it on FB. I signed up and looked for awhile. Then I discovered the threads. I thought it was for the "clicky" girls. I replied to something and Colleen and Kirsty talked back. Then I was hooked! I wasn't into skincare or makeup. Now I have a makeup room!

I don't actually remember because I signed up back in 2012 but didn't start using the site until half way through last year. I probably came across it by looking for competitions and free samples though... I started using the site last year when I got an email newsletter and found it really interesting, so I went on the site to read more.

I was reading the New Zealand Herald and one of their contributors was singing the praises of Beauty Review, so thought I'd have a look.

Over a year ago I was looking for information on a product. I can't remember what it was. Being cautious and needing to make sure I didn't end up with a dud. It would have been skincare related. How much of a change that brief intersection of need and information has made in all our lives! Excellent!
I found it om Google a few months ago when I was looking for reviews on a product to see if it was worth buying... I was curious about BR when I saw it so I clicked on the link and signed up!

Now Im finding Ill check reviews before I purchase anything! 

Beauty Review is my go to wwebsite now :)???

I think I was checking out which bb cream to buy and saw this. I loved the idea of earning points that you can actually spend and it's great to be able to have a honest say in my opinion on the products I use.

Awww thanks Sandy :)

I joined up via FB like some of the others, i have always had a underlying passion for beauty products but then i joined this group and bang it has evolved into my hobby, going from a small bag of 5 items to a hoard of hundreds lol.

I think from memory I discovered it via fb..

It was definitely the reviews that got me hooked, and shortly after that discovered the forums.. which in turn led me to memebox and korean skincare.
Previous to that, I'd pretty much given up on buying skin care products as I reacted so badly to them, as I've got very dry and sensitive skin.
Now its become a hobby/obsession. :)

I really enjoy the forums on br. Everyone is so nice and helpful, and I have learned a lot!!
