*Your food is more often than not served cold because after cooking it you have spent 10 minutes in the kitchen photographing them before serving and putting it on Instagram and Twitter
*You arrange to meet friends near Boots, Superdrug, Debenhams etc... arrive early just so you can 'nip in' and swatch things
*You have notebooks, post-it notes, pieces of paper everywhere filled with scribbles of blog ideas that come to you at random moments throughout the day/night and in the weirdest of places
*You can't walk into Boots when a 3 for 2 offer is on and leave with less than 6-9 items
*You can't walk into Boots, Superdrug or any other department store without swatching every new item, regardless of whether or not you would actually buy it
*You know what the Beauty Blogger Claw means
*The postman complains about the number of packages he has to deliver to you and assumes you have a shopping addiction - unlike mine who now knows what I do because he Googled BeautyqueenUK which appears on most packages!

*You can use your iPhone to apply your make-up perfectly
*You get home to a Royal Mail Card you feel angry and obsess about what is in the package and the following morning are outside the Sorting Office before it has opened

* When booking a holiday you look to see if there is a Sephora
*You to-do list actually contains items of make-up you need to buy as opposed to things that need to be done
So there is my (little) list, have I missed anything that you feel should be added? What would you add to this list?!
