I did a blog post when I had first started this blog all about my favourite people on YouTube which you can see here. Since then the site has expanded in such a huge way that everyone seems to be on the site now. I'm a huge YouTube supporter, I'm always on the site and as it stands my history tells me I've watched 10,000+ videos, which is slightly crazy but it's so addictive! So I thought I'd do another post with my updated favourites, I still love watching everyone's videos that included last time but these are just more of my current subscriptions. So here you go - in no particular order...
1 & 2 Miranda sings/ Colleen Ballinger: Miranda sings is a character created and played by Coleen Ballinger, ever since I discovered "both" of these people I have been obsessed. Coleen is so funny as Miranda and has herself in her day to day vlogs. However I will warn you that at first you may not get Miranda or you might not ever understand but if and when you do, it's the funniest thing ever.
3. Miss Glamorazzi: I mentioned this channel the first time and she continues to be up there with my favourite people on YouTube she's so welcoming and her videos are such high quality. She's my go to beauty guru and I always trust her judgement with products as she really knows her stuff! I loved her DIY December so if you missed it here's a video to get you started!
4. The Saccone Jolys: This is the second channel who I included last year to make it into my updated favourites. This channel follows round The Saccone-Joly's, a family from Cork who make 15-20 minute vlogs of their lives every single day! Anna who's currently pregnant with her second child also has her own channel The Style Diet. Their videos are always fun to watch and plus their daughter Emilia is just the cutest!
5. Troye Sivan: Is one of my favourite YouTube discovers this year! Simply watch the video below and you'll know what I mean. P.S he has the best ending to his videos - I dare you not to fall in love.
6. Jacks Gap: The channel focuses on videos created by twins Jack and Finn Harries, they're currently releasing their documentary series which follows their journey taking part in The Rickshaw Run in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. Not only are these boys ridiculously good looking but they're also very talented film makers. I've put the first episode from the series below (there's currently another two and one more to be released in the next few weeks).
8. Zoella: Zoe is one of the most subscribed UK to channels and it's clear why, her lovely style and relaxed personality makes her videos easy watching and bound to put a smile on your face! Her channel has blown up during 2013 which meant she got to experience some pretty cool things like meeting One Direction! The video below of old home videos with her brother Joe is one of my favourites.
9. Tyler Oakley: I found Tyler's videos at the end of 2012 and he is one of the funniest and entertaining people on YouTube. He's always so positive, and it is infectious you can't help but smile when you're watching! Just like Zoe his channel has grown massively over 2013 and I'm sure it'll grow even more this year!
10. Evelina: This channel does not receive the recognition or the subscribers it deserves! Evelina's fashion videos are up there with one of the best videos on YouTube, even if you're not that into fashion the quality and production that goes into her videos is incredible. If you don't believe me watch the video below... (P.S make sure you watch this in Full screen on 1080p!)

7. WULAS: These videos follow couple Antony and Kalel around their daily lives, their videos are a mix of YouTube tags and daily vlogs. Antony is part of Smosh which is the second most subscribed channel with an amazing 15,645,853 subscribers. I love Kalel's cute/vintage style and their videos of the trip to Japan just make me want to go even more!

I've been wanting to do this post for a while as I'm an avid YouTube watcher and I thought it would be interesting if I shared my favourite Vloggers with you and why I watch them. I watch a mixture of fashion, food, beauty and everyday life videos but my main interest is beauty and is what actually urged me to start this blog!
Pixi2woo/Tanya Burr:
Tanya is possibly my favourite make-up girl on YouTube, her tutorials are so easy to follow, are always make up looks that I want to try and are actually wearable. When I started watching youtube videos she was one of the first people I subscribed too and I'm so glad I did, she's so bubbly and makes you feel like you are watching one of your friends. Another great thing about her videos are that she uses a range of products from collection to tom ford and then will often give dupes for more expensive products to make her looks more accessible.
Fleur De Force:
Fleur is not a professional make up artist like Tanya Burr but a "beauty guru" so she tends to do beauty product reviews and beauty or fashion hauls. As well as her main channel she also has two others: Fleur De Vlog and Bride De Force, which are also great to watch as you feel that you really get to know her. She recently got engaged and has made Bride De force with her sister who is an event manager, these videos are so fun to watch even if you're not engaged or anywhere being close to getting married. They're such an easy watch and if you're a bit nosey like me, you just want to see how she's planning her wedding.
Miss Glamorazzi:
Ingrid is surprisingly the only American I have chosen to put into my top 5 YouTuber's, which is crazy as there is so many of them out there. I really enjoy her videos as they're always so well put together and she is such a likeable person. Like Fleur she is a beauty guru and started off doing product reviews and hauls, but has branched out into fashion videos and a great series of do it yourself videos called glam it yourself which are so original and really easy to follow. As well as this channel she also has a vlog channel called The Grid Monster which shows more of her everyday life in L.A.
Sorted Food:
This is my favourite cookery channel on youtube, the team at Sorted are a very funny and talented group of friends and really know how to connect with their audience. I love their videos as they come up with really great recipes and have a really good website to go along with the channel, where you are able to build up your own recipe book out of their videos. My favourite recipes of theirs have to be the rhubarb crumble cake and the Greek salmon parcels, which I'm still yet to make but they sound so tasty and looked amazing. I find myself watching all of their videos even the ones with meat in as they always have good tips in and is interesting which ingredients they mix together. I just ordered their recipe book which has recently come out and I'm very excited to get it and can't wait to get stuck in.
The Style Diet/ The Saccone-Joly's:
Anna Saccone's personal fashion and beauty channel is The Style Diet, I was recommend to try out this channel by a friend and to be honest I wasn't sure about it at first but she gradually grew on me and now she is one of my favourite people on YouTube. She is so gorgeous and seems to down to earth and her videos reflect this. I started watching her a few months before she announced she was pregnant and have been watching her and her husbands videos on "The Saccone-Joly's" channel following the pregnancy ever since. They upload half an hour videos every day following their life and are addictive! They're currently in labour and I'm so excited for the birth of Emilia!
I hope you've enjoyed this post and that I've introduced you to some new channels, I'd love to know if you had any suggestions, I'm always looking for new people to watch!
I've done a updated post which you read here!

With so many make up products coming out every week It's hard to keep up with it all and even more challenging to test them all out. So after eyeing up this product for a while ( excuse the pun) I thought I'd give it ago. I'd seen it been used in one of my favourites YouTubers the Pixiwoo girls video and if its good enough for them, then its good enough for me.
Maybelline have never been one of my go to brands when looking at my local "drugstore" for make up but as I was so impressed with their bb cream I was sure that this product wouldn't be too bad. Well I feel its fair to say that this product is pretty amazing. I'm impressed with it on every level the pigment in product is great, its extremely easy to use and its a great price. I was sceptical to try a gel liner as I've used liquid liner pretty much since day one of using make up. I've also tried another gel liner before which was from topshop and was pretty awful, it dried up so easily and just was so difficult and horrible to apply. Make up artist Tanya Burr said is that it was a great cheaper replacement for Bobbi Brown's cult product, the gel liner.
However the brush you get with this liner is actually quote good and works fairly well I haven't bothered to use any off my own brushes with the liner. I think for someone just starting off using eyeliner this would be a great starting point, you don't run the risk off getting the product in your eye and its stinging horribly. It's also easy to achieve the much loved winged liner look as the brush allows you to create great easy flicks.
This retails for about about £6.99 is available also in brown from Boots and Superdrug (UK)
I'd give this product a 5 out of 5.
As an avid watcher of beauty bloggers on YouTube I’ve seen
this tag be passed around quite a lot by bloggers such as Vivianna Does Makeup, Zoella and llymlrs, so I thought I’d give it ago myself but this time as a
blog post, as I don't think I’m quite ready for my YouTube debut. These are
products that I’ve either used up completely or very near to finishing.
Bathroom:
- Miracle Moist Aussie Conditioner - I've loved using this conditioner, I took it on holiday to Kavos with me and just fell in love with it, it’s so conditioning and it smells so amazing, I’m completely addicted to this!
- Moringa shower gel from The Body Shop, again a product that I love because it smells so good, I’ve never heard of Moringa so when I got given a set of body shop mini shower gels I was intrigued to try it and ever since then I’ve just been obsessed with it. I'm going to be sad once I’ve finished this so I'm using it sparingly and I may have to buy the full size.
- Pink grapefruit shower gel again from The Body Shop, (there seems to be a theme here with my bathroom empties) I love anything that smells like pink grapefruit although I’m not keen on the fruit itself. This is such a good product as this has lasted me a few months as you don't need too much as it lathers up really well.
Make-up:
- MAC pro longwear concealer - This is something I’ll re-purchase over and over again it's my favourite concealer ever (well, so far!)
- Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation - Again a product that I can't recommend enough, it suits my skin type so well and lasts me all month, although this product doesn't look empty it is, I had a lot of trouble with getting product out of the bottle!
- Benefit mini High Beam - I got this mini sample free with a glamour magazine ages ago and have only just finished it, it’s lasted me a good while! I would get this again but I was recently given Benefit's Sunbeam highlighter for my birthday and so I’m currently using & loving that.
- 17 supreme shine nail varnish – in the shade simply pink, such a good product for such little money! I love this colour, it does need a few coats for the colour to become really opaque but it's such a lovely baby pink shade, definitely in my top 5 nail varnishes.
Perfume:
Daisy & Daisy Garland both by Marc Jacobs: I received
the original daisy perfume for my 16th birthday and Daisy garland for my 18th
birthday, these perfumes have lasted me ages and I’ve only just come to the end
with them, the scent is quite strong and lasts quite a while which is good as
you don't need to top yourself up too often. To be honest I can't tell that
there is much difference between the two scents, or if there was even meant to
be a difference? I do like these perfumes but I’m not sure if I’d buy them for
myself.
