Description

This is a blogging opportunity for an EXPERIENCED beauty blogger to write for a UK-BASED beauty website.

You will have significant creative freedom to pick and chose your topics (within pre-arranged topic areas), which might include:

* Product Reviews
* Celebrity Profiles
* Top X Lists
* Problem / Solution

This is a perfect opportunity for someone experienced in the beauty industry with good writing ability, or for a professional writer with an interest in beauty, hair care, cosmetics, etc.

The ideal candidate should be competent in writing, blogging, public relations and social promotions (Digg/ SU/ Reddit). You must be able to write in an SEO-aware manner, and should be very active in several forums within the beauty community.

Requirements:

1. You must not send a boilerplate response.
2. Please include links to your three favourite beauty blogs (they need not be yours or blogs that you write for, but do explain why they are your favourites).
3. Also include links you three posts you personally wrote that you think show off your skills.
4. Tell me the 3 people that any beauty addict must absolutely follow on Twitter.
5. You must be a native English speaker / writer (or be able to convince me by being better than most native English speakers).
6. You will require basic photoshop skills (we have template images that go at the top of each blog post and all you'll need to do is layer a screenshot on the template and edit the caption - so pretty basic photoshop!)

Rates:

We wish to pay for this job on a "per post" basis with a suggested rate of $15 - $20 per 500 word post (finalised based on your experience).

Byline:

We will offer a byline with two line biog - link by negotiation.

Output:

5 posts per week.
