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!

I've never been the type of girl to fake
tan however after missing my tan from my holiday in Corfu, I decided to give it
a go. I wasn't sure about going the whole way and getting myself a spray tan
but I heard about Garnier summerbody moisturizer from vloggers Tanya Burr
and Anna Sacconne-Joly and felt that this could be the one for me.
I got brought this is the deeper shade
as I have a natural olive and thought this would be better for my skin tone. I
got this from Wilkinson’s for the bargain price of £2.50 but it is also
available from Boots and Superdrug for a slightly higher price. I'm always on
the look out and researching into more affordable products that are still great
quality so I was really pleased when I found this product with such a good price
tag!
What I like about this product is that is doesn't have a horrible fake
tan smell to it which most products do even other gradual tan products like the
Johnson's Holiday Skin body lotion. It says it has an apricot scent to it and I would
have to agree it’s very fruity and summery which is great for this time of the
year.
The application and how I found using
this product:
Before applying the product you will
want to have exfoliated to get rid of any dead or dry skin the product may
cling on to. I find the easiest was to do this is to use my body shop body
scrub and to also use a shower puff which you can really cheap from most supermarkets
or chemists. Then moisturize you legs a little let that soak in and then apply
the gradual tan just so you get the best effect from the product.
Just to give you an idea of what the product look likes.
After the first time using it (I put it on before I went to sleep) I noticed a difference already, which was quite a surprise, as I wasn't expecting to be so effective so quickly. I was left with a really nice subtle glow and I was really pleased with the effects. I continued to use this for 2-3 more nights until I felt I had the look I wanted. The tan lasted after this for around 4-6 days even after using a body scrub. Overall I'm really pleased with this product and definitely would recommend it if you're looking for a short-term tan. Let me know if you use a gradual tanner or another type of fake tan, i'm interested to know what other people are using and how they get on!
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.
