Youtube Girls aka ma life. I just wanted to write a post about my favourite beauty gurus and why I love them just incase anyone is wondering...unlikely but hey.
CARLI BYBEL
http://www.youtube.com/user/CarliBel55
This dark haired blue eyed beauty is Carli, one of the most popular beauty gurus on youtube. She has over 1,200,000 subscribers and 200 videos.
I think the main reason Carli is so popular is because she's living every preteen/teenage girls' fantasy. She's ridiculously gorgeous, has an amazing body, she's a full time makeup artist with an extremely enviable shoe and jewellery collection and to top it all off she has a Ken lookalike boyfriend who also happens to be a personal trainer...with a youtube of topless videos.
If that wasn't enough he frequently posts instagrams and videos about how much he loves Carli and they do make my heart and a lot of 12 year olds melt a little bit and post things like 'omg bret I love how much u love carli <3333 i wish i had a boyf like u ur gawjus!!'
Anyway, Carli's videos consist of makeup and hair and fashion videos. Personally, I think the makeup is a bit overrated but her hair and fashion videos are unbelievable juicy as well as her instagram and her blog. (Check them both out) I think this girl is just so stunning that she fascinates people....or at least she fascinates me...hope das not creepy.
TRISHA PAYTAS

Trisha, my boo. To say I'm obsessed with this girl is probably an understatement. She has over 500,000 subscribers but millions of views on her videos. Trish makes videos about her life and experiences and all of her purchases which are I'm always envious of.
So why did this fascination with Trisha begin? She seems like a real person unlike these other perfect youtube girls who seem like they couldn't possibly be real. First of all, she's one of the only youtube girls who is curvy and lovin it. This just makes me love her because it makes her so much more relatable since we are now aware that she actually does eat unlike other youtube girls who seem to only consume 'green detox juice'. Secondly, Trisha makes mistakes and doesn't care about sharing them with her audience. She doesn't have a supermodel boyfriend, she used to be a stripper, she's had severe money trouble...all of it just makes her seem a lot more believable. Thirdly, she loves Hello Kitty which is a major plus in itself as I love Hello Kitty and anything kawaii.
Lastly, I think the best thing about Trish is she's a brilliant actress. Every so often she posts videos where she's acting, saying something extremely controversial and pretending it's her own view in order to get more views and more subscribers. e.g. 'Do dogs have brains?' 'Surely Hitler wasn't that bad?'
This girl is an expert at branding herself and getting herself known like...it's ridiculous. She's a plus size lingerie model, a reality tv star, a youtube girl, a largely followed instagram page, she's written 2 books and has now released a perfume. I recently ordered and read 'the history of my insanity' (in about half an hour it was so well written) and honestly it made me love her even more.
As well as this her blog is full of inspiring, well wishing messages to all of her young fans who relate to her in any sense. I think this blog is especially popular because, since her views have heard about Trisha's very real struggles in life, the idea that she has picked herself up to be so positive means a lot more than someone who seemingly leads a perfect life telling you to be happy.
Trisha if you ever happen to read this you're just great and would be someone I'd invite to my fantasy dinner party.
