I know I posted yesterday that I had two L'Oreal products to review, but when I woke up this morning, I noticed that Katherine over at Handmade Reviews (love her blog, check it out) had posted on her blog a list of cosmetic companies that support the SOPA/PIPA internet censorship bills and had vowed to not post about those companies anymore. L'Oreal was one of the brands.
Since the internet is a great marketing tool for companies, by not reviewing their products I hope to make it clear that this is not a bill to be supported. I hope you all will join me.

Thanks for supporting the cause too! I personally know how difficult it is to protest these brands that are so often used by beauty bloggers. I thank you and all the great, honest bloggers who put the good of Internet, people and freedom first. :)
ReplyDeleteIt hurts me to see so many bloggers accepting freebies from knowing SOPA supporters and then rave about them on their blog. Sure, you get a freebie or two now, but when the bill passes and all web traffic goes to big media - bloggers are left in the dust. What then?
Sorry for the rambling, but I feel very strongly about this. Thank you again for being an awesome blogger. :)
Thanks for your comment! I am not so well known where I get free products but if I were approached by one of these companies, I now know where their support lies and can tell them directly why their support ultimately hurts those of us who give them a lot of their business in the first place! I would rather buy all my beauty products that I review and support those companies that support my freedom, then get freebies from those companies trying to take it away.
ReplyDeleteI hope many of my readers will feel the same way :)
