About

by thesavvynana August 24, 2018

Hey there! Welcome to The Savvynana 👋

Thank you so much for visiting my little corner of the internet. If you love luxury beauty, smart shopping, and real talk, you are definitely in the right place!

1. The Basics: Who is Nana?

  • Name: Nana
  • Age: 32
  • City: Boston, USA (with a massive piece of my heart left in London!)
  • Occupation: Full-time PR Professional by day, Passionate Beauty & Lifestyle Blogger by night.

2. My Blogger Identity & Niche

My Niche: I am a Fashion and Luxury Beauty Blogger, with a hyper-focus on high-end skincare, detailed unboxings, and smart shopping hacks.

Why I chose this path: Honestly? I started my career in PR, so I know exactly how the industry works. I’ve always had an absolute obsession with premium cosmetics, but c’mon, paying full retail price every single time just isn’t my style. I created The Savvynana in 2020 as a creative outlet to share my thoughts, tips, and adventures. Over the years, I fell completely head-over-heels for Chantecaille’s botanical ingredients and their amazing philanthropy. I realized there was a huge gap for real, honest reviews combined with actual deal-hunting, so I decided to become the ultimate bridge between luxury products and savvy shopping.

3. My Personality & Vibe

Keywords: Savvy, Authentic, Meticulous, Upbeat, and Direct.

How this reflects in my work: My PR background makes me incredibly meticulous—I don’t just say a cream “feels nice.” I dive into the ingredients, the texture, and the 12-hour wear test. Because I’m super direct and authentic, you’ll always get my unfiltered opinion. If a product isn’t worth your hard-earned cash, I will tell you! And because I’m savvy, I spend hours scouring the internet so you don’t have to. I’m a specialist in hunting down the absolute best deals, and I make it a point to regularly update my master guide whenever there is a chantecaille sale happening online.

4. My Content Creation Style

Writing Style: Conversational, structured, and visually clean. I write like I’m talking to my bestie over an iced latte. You’ll find a lot of step-by-step guides, pros/cons lists, and “Is It Worth It?” breakdowns.

What makes my blog unique? While many influencers just post a pretty picture and a discount code, I bring structured, data-backed reviews. For example, I track historical price drops for my favorite brands, so when I tell you a deal is good, I have the numbers to back it up! My 10+ minute deep-dive unboxing articles are designed to make you feel like you’re opening the package right there with me.

5. My Journey & Milestones

Important Life Experiences: After living in the Boston-area for 14 incredible years, I took a massive leap of faith and moved to London in January 2015. Living in Europe completely transformed my perspective on beauty and fashion. It expanded my blog’s focus to cover international lifestyle, travels, and recipes. Launching the blog in 2020 was my way of bringing all those global experiences together.

Blogging Achievements: What started as a passion project has grown into a community of over 25,000 monthly readers! One of my proudest moments was having my detailed skincare breakdowns featured in 3 major online beauty roundups last year. It validates all the late-night typing sessions after my 9-to-5 job.

6. Let’s Connect!

How we interact: I am completely obsessed with reading your comments! I make it a priority to reply to every single blog comment and email. I also send out a bi-weekly “Savvy Deals” newsletter where we can chat directly about what we’re currently loving (or hating).

To my readers: I honestly view you guys as my inner circle. Your trust means the world to me, which is why I hold my content to such a high standard. I only feature businesses, events, and products that I have a strong affinity for.

7. My Goals & Vision

Short-Term Goals (1-2 years): I am working hard to boost my community to 50,000 monthly readers. I also plan to expand my unboxing series to include more video elements right here on the blog to give you an even better visual experience.

Long-Term Vision (3-5 years): My ultimate dream is to collaborate officially on a product launch with my favorite botanical beauty brands and perhaps turn The Savvynana into a full-time media platform that empowers women to enjoy luxury lifestyles without compromising their financial goals.


A Quick Note for PR Friends:

If you’re interested in pitching my blog, I do welcome pitches to [email protected]. However, please remember I have a full-time job in addition to running this blog! I do my best to respond, but please take extra care to keep pitches relevant to my niche. Personal pitches only, please—if I see that you’ve subscribed me to your newsletter or are spamming me with mass, irrelevant pitches, I will block and/or unsubscribe. I started my career out in PR, so not only do I know better… but c’mon, you do too 😉.
