YouTube!

Hey guys

These are the make up gurus i watch on YouTube. I think they're awesome. Check them out!


TANYA BURR

I love watching her! I could watch her videos the whole day. I usually keep her videos playing when i'm doing my make up (i know, its a bit freaky). She's really pretty and she knows it, but it's great. I don't know, she makes me feel good about myself and really makes me want to pick up my make up and do something great with it. She talks to her audience and she lets us in on her life which keeps me hooked to watching her. And i love that she's very frequent with her posts! Shows that her viewers really matter to her. She has about 15,600 subscribers and i'm really a loyal fan. She's now a freelance make up artist in the UK and she was trained by Sam and Nic from pixiwoo (will talk about them too). WATCH HER. She's fantastic.

She really knows her stuff. She's got about 171,600 subscribers and i totally understand why. She's a make up artist in the US and she's been around YouTube since August 2008. She's actually the first make up artist i got hooked to watching. She has skin type close to mine and to be honest, i believe her and i do buy a lot of the products that she recommends and i have yet to be disappointed. She's a NC25 and she has oily skin so it's relatively similar to my skin which is good cause then i know what kinda colours and products i could try on my skin. She's really fun to watch and she has a good sense of humour! I say she's a definite watch! She's great for people who are new to make up and also for those who already know a lot! She caters to a wide audience and she's really lively! I love watching her too. And she's got really great ideas! DEFINITE WATCH.

I love her story :) I love that she was the type of girl who really didn't think highly about herself but made it and now is one of the most famous YouTube bred make up artists around! She has about 350,000 subscribers now and its great to see her hard work pay off. She's got 2 books out and you can get it from Borders, on her website or at any great bookstore! The only issue i have with her videos now is that she uses a lot of her own products and does not really mention what products they are (because of course she does not want to flaunt herself too much because its still a make up channel that should cater to all). She used to use lots of great products and i would just love to see her branch out her products a little more. I have not tried her products yet so i have no say on them but when i do i will let you guys know how it is! Of course she's a good one to watch. And i think she's very easy to relate to because she portrays herself as an average person who's in love with make up and who wants to feel good about herself. I think a lot of people can identify with her and she's a joy to watch :)

I think she's 16 and she's great fun to watch! She's a student in the US. She's not a trained make up artist but i think she loves what she does enough to really research and become good at it. Her sister Elle (http://www.youtube.com/allthatglitters21) also has a channel and they both run the glitzy glam shop (that ships internationally) which has super pretty pink shimmery glittery (can hurt your eyes from looking at it too much, ok just kidding) stuff. Haha. But they do have some really pretty stuff! She's gaining credibility as a make up guru in the US and recently did an interview with Good Morning America! I love watching her cause she's really fun and she's really just a young teen who is in love with make up and who just really wants to talk about it and share it with everyone, which i think is missing in a lot of other make up channels!

Sam and Nic are sisters and also the artists who trained Tanya! They are Tanya's boyfriend's (Jim) sisters thats why their channel names are alike. They are both professional make up artists based in the UK. They are the more serious sort of make up gurus but are still awesome to watch. They give really good tips and they do a lot of celebrity looks that are AWESOME! I am in love with the lady gaga 'telephone' look they just did!

She's really pretty! Haha. Ok i love watching her random videos as much as her make up videos. She's a professional make up artist in the US and she is fantastic for doing both everyday looks and super over the top looks. She is very open about her life and you can always see part of her life shine through in her videos. She shares a lot with her viewers and even takes us on shopping trips with her! She's a single mum and advocates making yourself feel good though her tutorials. She's of course a fantastic make up artist, but i also like to watch her when i'm just alone at home or anywhere. It kinda feels like i'm watching a friend :) The quality of her videos are also fantastic and she's fast with her tutorials!



So i could go on forever but these are the few artists i think are a MUST WATCH. I'll list a couple more you can check out. I'm sure most of you know most of them but for those of you who dont't, really do check them out. It will change your life. I know it changed mine!

Love, Tasha
