175+ Blog Post Ideas for Beauty Bloggers (w/Free Printable!)

November 2, 2020 |

Today I challenged myself to come up with as many blog post ideas about beauty as I could in 30 minutes, so I could give back to the beauty blogger community! I'm not a huge fan of giving away too much personal info online, so I recommend an 80/20 split between informative posts that help your reader solve a problem and fewer of the “get to know me” posts. With that in mind, here's a huge list of blog post ideas beauty addicts will love!

Blog Post Ideas for Beauty Bloggers

Take a quick peek around Pinterest, and you'll probably notice beauty pins everywhere. Since the site is so visual, it makes sense that girls head there to find the latest makeup techniques, beauty trends, and hair tutorials. But what should you pin? Here's a list of topics you can write about next time you're low on ideas.

How-To's:

How-To's are a solid hot topic. Solve a problem your readers commonly experience and they'll love you for it.

  • How to Make Lashes Look Longer

  • How to Organize Your Makeup Products
  • How to Save Money on Makeup

Get To Know Me:

Throwback pic! ⠀ How many of you own your own Throwback pic! ⠀ How many of you own your own home here in Savannah but rarely travel because you don't like boarding your pets? ⠀ ⠀ The pet-loving community is HUGE worldwide, and there are lots people who A.) love animals and B.) want to see Savannah. ⠀ ⠀ Guess what? They'll happily travel here to take care of your house and your pets while you go off on an adventure -- and they'll do it for FREE. You can skip the expensive boarding fees, and your pets will be happy because they can stay home and get spoiled. It's a win/win😊⠀ ⠀ Got questions?

The King-Tisdell Cottage is named after its former owners and is chock full of African-American history from the 1800s to present time. It’s located in the Historic District. (Sorry it’s not the best shot since I took it midday - but it’s one of my favorite tiny houses so I had to post it!) Oh, and that’s a horse hitch on the sidewalk beside the gate 😊
Savannah is jam-packed with houses, so that means Savannah is jam-packed with houses, so that means you’ll often find multiple homes on one lot. The larger homes face the streets and the carriage houses and tiny homes face the lanes, aka: back alleyways. Let me tell ya, there are some really cute homes down some of those lanes! 💙💙💙
