Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Zoe says it outright in Tanya's most recent vlog. (dont usually watch them but anything to procrastinate essay writing!)
When Tanya wants to do her nails and says the Essie colour looks like her "penguin chick" and Zoe compares them. They're almost exact and she calls Tanya a copycat before Tanya claims it's "a dupe".

Tanya Burr, the copycat!
It's not just that polish that's exactly like other brands', it's all of them. The colors in her nail range are the most basic of the basic and their names don't help things either. That's what drives me bananas... She's supposed to be a guru, yet her polishes are the most overdone shades all smushed into one collection. Not that you can't have some classics like red or whatnot but why not put your own spin on them?
I'm curious how much control she actually has over the color/formula though, and how much of it is just her manufacturer slapping her name on generic products...

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
^Yes! I doubt she had much say in terms of colours, but at the same time, I wouldn't say that Tanya is the most creative youtuber out there, so maybe she did (and picked the most basic, boring ones that all other brands already do).bits wrote:It's not just that polish that's exactly like other brands', it's all of them.

I get it if you're 12 and barely own any polishes and want some basic ones, Tanya's line might be a good choice, but I had a look at the polishes that I own, and I already own all the shades that Tanyas line got, but from brands like Essie or OPI.
Maybe that's why you never see any other 'gurus' talking about them? Because she just made a line made out of boring dupes that everyone has seen before?

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Speaking of her polishes and other brands, it's a crying shame when high end brands for nail polishes (back in the days when dior etc wasnt in the market for actual polish) are cheaper than hers. Like for real? Essie is cheaper here than hers ,that said id be buying hers internationally and then adding conversion rates it comes out more expensive ..but for crappy polishes that streak that is amazing. It would be like if poundland decided to create their own line and instead of selling in their shops went else where so they could charge more.vanillakid wrote:^Yes!

I will never purchase her goods as long as theyre more expensive than bigger better brands both nails and lips lines!!

I reckon the next thing will be a book because she looves reading... It will probably be a style book I think.

She recently purchased a pair of Stuart Weitzman boots in suede; Niomi also owns a pair but in leather.

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
To be fair, I actually remember Tanya calling him this all the time ago many years ago. In fact I think Jims username even used to be jimmybobba01 or something along those lines. Jim isn't even his real name is it? I think it's actually James.amber202 wrote:Now watching her 'wedding dress' vlog and in it she referrs to Jim as "Jimbob" and I couldn't believe it....really?

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Yeah Nin is right, tanya has actually been calling him jimbobs and bobs for quite some time. If I recall correctly as far back as 2011. His username was jimmybobo1 i think? Awe but Jim is just short for james. The variations of that name is unreal. James, Jay, Jamie, Jim, Jimmy, i've even heard/seen Jams/jamz being used!!Nin wrote:To be fair, I actually remember Tanya calling him this all the time ago many years ago.

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Even though she didn't actually copy anyone with "Jimbob", I wouldn't really put it past her, though, to do something like that.QurikyDuck wrote:Yeah Nin is right, tanya has actually been calling him jimbobs and bobs for quite some time.

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Haha, not psychic - I just know what Tan Tan is like as a copy cat! I like that her book is going to be more creative. If I'm honest it seems like the book deal for Tan probably went hand in hand with Zoe's deal through Gleam - like one does a lifestyle book, the other does a novel.mascaramadam wrote:^^greeny called it, two months ago!

Re: Tanya Burr, the copycat!
Is it just me or does her book cover look like the movie If I Stay book cover?
