The content is what i look for in a blog and also it should be regularly updated. Holy smokes! I wish to win!!! Happy anniversary again, Jaa!
Thank you, Laarni! Good luck!!! :)
Nice giveaway! I look for in depth reviews and good quality pictures.
Great giveaway!
In a blog I look for great photos, interesting mix of beauty brands and someone who posts regularly :)
Hey Meagan! I think I’m on the right track, then! :D Thank you for participating and good luck! :D
What I look for in a blog is someone whose point of view comes through honestly, and fun to read content!
I like hearing about new things happening in beauty. I like both high end and drugstore cosmetics. Pictures are good and a plus is tutorials.
What a generous giveaway! I enjoy beauty blogs with good, clear photos of products and definitely swatches ON the person. Even if we don’t have the same coloring, it still gives good perspective. I love reading honest reviews, esp from bloggers I trust. Your blog definitely has all of the above.
Hey Pegg! I wish in my earlier reviews I had the guts to show my face shots! It took me a while before I was brave enough to realize that it’s inevitable — if you have a makeup review blog, you have to have a face shot with the product on! :)
Thank you for your kind comment and good luck!! :D
Hey Jaa, I tried to enter but it gave me errors on each attempt! You already know I love you and follow you on Social Media!
OK, I logged in and relogged 3 times and it seems to be working!
Yay! Good luck, Erin!
that it’s updated regulary with interesting posts
Great photos are the #1 thing that make me come back again and again to a particular beauty blog. Yours are some of the best around! Thanks for the raffle!
Yay! Thanks, Ellen!! Good luck!!
What an amazing giveaway, Jaa!
Also, the most important thing I look for in a beauty blog is honest reviews! I really appreciate how honest and thorough your reviews are, Jaa!
Same here, Carolyn! I love how your reviews are so well-written and honest! Good luck!! :D
i look for information and detail with honest opinion <3
Thank you for entering ja, N’Pop! Good luck na ja!! <3
Great great great giveaway!! Super generous of you :D
Yay! Good luck, Rachelle!
I look for truly honest reviews and fabulous photos are a plus! These are best photos by far!
Thanks, Molly! Good luck!! :)
Congrats Jaa! I wouldn’t have thought your blog was just 1 year old! Wishing you more success in the years to come, so please don’t ever quit blogging. You have the best photos and reviews. Okay, I’m going to try stop sounding like a kiss-ass now haha
Anyways, THE most important thing I look for in a blog is honest opinions on the product they’re reviewing. The blogosphere is so saturated with blogs that are sponsored that it’s becoming difficult to find sincere reviews.
Aww thank you so much, Cel!! You’re so kind!! :) Good luck!!!
Great photos, and honest reviews

happy anniversary!
Thank you so much, Chermaine! :) Good luck!
Yay for the giveaway being open worldwide! The most important thing for me in a beauty blog is good photos, and I think you have the best macros I’ve ever seen! :)
Yay! Means a lot coming from you, Jeannie! Good luck!! <3
Photographs are probably the first thing I look at especially with swatches, so the quality of photos is important! And I must say, yours are some of the best I’ve seen. It’s art!
That’s what I’ve been trying to do! Turning makeup photos into art!!! :D Thanks, Kira, and good luck!!
I look for thorough, informative reviews on products- accompanied by a variety of photos (i.e: images of the product itself, swatched on the skin, how it looks overall on the face, etc.)
I look for the quality of both content and photos. You always deliver such amazing photos!
Thank you so much, Kin! :D Good luck!!
Thanks for the giveaway! I look for honest reviews and an authentic voice, plus good photos never hurt :)

what i look most in a beauty blog is high quality photos and unbiased review, which lucky for me, I found both here in this Blog! l
Yayyy! You’ve been nothing but sweet to me! Thank you so much for your readership. And good luck!!! :D
I expect quality photos, swatches and honesty.
I’m still over the moon about winning your last giveaway, and as I own a few of these products already, I’m going to let others have a better chance in this one by not entering! But these are great products and you are so generous, Jaa! Good luck to everybody!
Hey Laura! That’s so nice of you to stop by and comment! I’m glad you won my last giveaway because otherwise I wouldn’t have got to know you, my mini buddies! :D :D
Always tips and unusual styles
Thank you for the giveaway! I find that updated content and attention to details is very important when it comes to the blogs that I visit daily. I like to look at products from different angles and have as much information about it as possible.
Same here, Rachel! I like looking at products from different angles, too! Good luck!! :)
honest reviews and great giveaways
Quality reviews/swatches
I very clean and easy to navigate
I like honest reviews and articles that pertain to my beauty issues.
great looking giveaway!!
Good swatches! And I love it when blogs do comparison swatches.
The most important thing I look for in a beauty blog would be product swatches and pictures with someone wearing the makeup. Lots of photos, in other words.
I look for good quality photos, which you obviously have. I also look for decent grammar, which sounds snobby, but I find it so distracting when I’m reading and stumble across mistakes. It’s hard to take myself out of university student-mode, I guess!
Hope I didn’t commit too many grammatical mistakes in my first year! ^_^” I always admire your impeccable writing skills, Amanda! :)
And good luck!!
Nice! Such pretty things. And congrats on your blogiversary!
Thanks, Riah! Good luck!! :)
Great contest, thank you!!
My pleasure, Amy! Good luck!
I look for lots of swatches and honest feedback!
When it comes to blogs I look for something that makes it unique.. I think nowadays most blogs are all about swatches and reviews, and when I find ones with different content, like articles, discussions, and tips, they really catch my attention! And, obviously, honesty, which is probably the most important thing. :)
Thank you for your suggestion, Ana! I’ll definitely keep in mind to try to do more than just swatches and reviews! Good luck!! :)
i dont really look for anything in a beauty blog but my wife likes looking for nail designs and eye shadows. thanks for the giveaway.
That is so nice of you! Good luck!! :)
I am new to your blog, but what really attracted me are the beautiful pictures of the products I see! (It was the Nars eyeshadow review for Phoebe that hooked me haha)
Pictures and rigorous reviews are what I look for in a beauty blog, and I am glad to see both here! And it will be great to see more snippets of a blogger’s life. Like any other likes she has, rants on certain things, pets (if any), cooking done or even about nothing in general. It makes me feel like I am getting to know a friend that way. =)
I’ve always thought of incorporating personal/lifestyle posts into hellojaa so maybe I’ll try to do that this year! Thank you for your sweet comment, Alphapaige, and super good luck!!! :D
I love your blog so far! Can’t wait to see more :)
Yay! Thank you so much, Maria! Good luck!!
i look for great pictures! :D
i so hope i win **fingers crossed** i had to create a twitter account to folow.. Not on bloglovin andpintrest :(
Awww…. I’m sorry but Facebook and Twitter is kind of a must! ^_^” It only takes seconds to sign up!! :)
I look for new beauty and cosmetic product reviews with photos of swatches, giveaways, and tutorials.
Woo, great giveaway, Jaa! :D
I think what I gravitate towards the most for a beauty blog is the pictures. In particular, if they’re true to colour.
Thanks! Good luck to you, Lucina!! :D
Just discovered your blog through amandarobots! It looks beautiful and I’m excited to explore. I like intelligent writing, clear photos, and prestige/luxury products.
Yay! Thank you for stopping by, Linda! Amanda’s blog is fun to read and she has a very unique writing style! :)
Did you enter the giveaway? If so, good luck!!! <3
Great giveaway! Thanks!
You’re welcome, Lynne! Good luck!!
The most important thing I look in a beauty blog is honesty, i.e. proper disclaimers and honest opinions.
Thanks very much for the give away :-*
Yay! Thank you so much, Sara, for participating!!! Super good luck to you!!! ❤
The most important thing is the honest review given about a specific products. Sometimes beauty blogger is being sponsored and forced to write good reviews on the product where the product isn’t actually that good. And I love your blog especially for those honest reviews. thank you :D
Thank you so much, Vanessa! Sounds like honesty is the number one thing we all look for in a beauty blog! :) Good luck!!
I like tips and tricks
I just like to make sure that the design is clean and looks good. And that the text is nice. I like it when people are good writers.
Honest and detailed reviews.
I look for honest reviews.
I have no idea what just happened..Im a bit confused but heres my comment Jaa. Here’s wishing you another fantastic year of success with everything. Its only been a few months and I already feel like I need a break from blogging so hats off to you!! xo
Thank you so much, Dee!! I had no idea it’s only been a few months for you, your blog looks very professional! It’s OK to take a break once in a while just don’t be gone too long! We will miss you & your posts too much!! :)
for me the most important thing in a beauty blog is to keep it real and authentic and off course high quality pictures like yours! what camera do you use?
Thank you for participating, Chen! I use a Canon 7D. Good luck! :)
