I’ve been an avid YouTube watcher for about 3 years now. It’s gotten to the point where I don’t even watch TV anymore. When I finally have a few minutes to sit down, I want to catch up on my YouTube channels.
I started out watching makeup tutorials, but now I’m really into vlogs. There’s just something fascinating about watching the day-to-day activities of someone else. I tend to watch YouTubers that are relatable to me – moms who are in their 20’s or 30’s and love makeup, fashion, and lifestyle.
I will admit that I follow Jaclyn, Manny, Sister James and a few of the other hugest YouTubers on the planet. I like them too, but this list is my all-time favorites!
Georgia May is a super-cute British girl that I discovered about a year ago when I was looking for clothing-haul videos. (I am obsessed with them). I have nothing in common with her and we have totally differentt styles, but I love that. She has a fun, chatty personality and her makeup is always on-point. Her videos range from hauls, to GRWMs (Get Ready With Me), to advice series. She recently graduated from university and began a job, but decided to try out YouTube full-time. I wish her the best of luck!
I started following AprilAthena7 just a few months ago and I’m so glad I found her. She is a 30-something mom of 2 young boys who lives in the SanFran Bay Area. She’s adorable and her positivity and energy is contagious. Plus, she’s obsessed with cleaning. I can’t be the only one who finds cleaning videos satisfying (even if it’s someone else’s house). She also does GRWM videos, product reviews, and vlogs. I love to watch her vlog channel that she shares with her husband, Justin called AprilJustin TV.
Jessica Braun, known as JAMbeauty89, is a new mom who recently quit her teaching job to do YouTube full-time. I’ve been a fan for a few years and her channel has really grown. I love her honesty and realness. Her personality is awesome, and she always holds my interest. She does beauty reviews, de-clutters, and vlogs with her husband, Tyler on his channel, Tyler Travels TV. They are massive Disney fans and Tyler is a Disney travel agent, which is so fun because they often vlog from Disney World.
Brittani Boren Leach is a YouTuber who lives in Texas with her husband, 3 sons, and step-daughter. Just this past week she announced that she is expecing her fourth baby! Her channel is focused on being a stay-at-home mom, balancing running a house and taking care of the kids. I love watching her down-to-earth vlogs about Target runs and waiting in the school pick-up line. Even when her life looks perfect, she admits that it’s not and lets that vulnerability come through in her videos. Her family is so cute and she makes you feel part of it all. She’s just so darn relatable, and that’s why I love her.
Shannon Harris, AKA Shaaanxo. She is one of the very first YouTubers I discovered and began watching religiously, and she is still my #1. Her makeup looks are absolutely gorgeous, but she is not afraid to keep it real and vlog with a bare face. She lives in New Zealand with her boyfriend, Hamish, and their 2 cute dogs, Lewie and Zeus. Shannon does makeup-look series, unboxings, clothing try-ons, and also vlogs on her other channel, Shaaanxo Vlogs. I’ve gone back and watched almost all of her videos and it is awsome to see how much she has evolved, from a young student dabbling in makeup to having over 3 million subs!
If you’re into that YouTube life, then go check out these gems. Let me know who you love to watch because I’m always up to check out new channels.
Happy viewing,
