My Favorite Beauty Bloggers


I read a LOT of blogs and watch a bunch of YouTube channels, mostly beauty related, and there are a few whose opinions I trust no matter what. In no particular order (aside from my #1 fave!), here are my top 7 beauty bloggers that I always listen to.

(FYI, this list includes actual blogs as well as YouTube channels!)

Amelia Liana
I first found her blog through Lily Pebbles and ViviannaDoesMakeup, and once she started making videos, I was sold. She has flawless taste, and discusses a good amount of drugstore and luxury products, so I always feel like I'm getting a good and honest review.

Ingrid Nilsen (missglamorazzi)
Ingrid was the first beauty YouTuber I really got hooked on. She posts a variety of videos related to food, fashion, and beauty and she is always so creative with her looks and recipes.

Lily Pebbles
I first fell in love with Lily's blog, originally called What I Heart Today, which features honest posts that aren't afraid to be different than the hype. Her videos are also really great, and I especially love all of her nail art tips!

Claire Marshall
Another former makeup artist who's videos I fell in love with. Claire has the coolest fashion sense ever, and her videos are quite varied, which I appreciate. And when she says a product is good, you know it's good, because she has the most flawless makeup. Also, I am majorly envious of all her beautiful tattoos.

ChelseaWears
She has a blog, a Youtube channel, and a fabulous online shop called Anomie (post coming soon!). I absolutely adore her style and could spend all day watching her videos. I love that she is involved in so many different things because sometimes I feel like bloggers get a bit repetitive just living in their little blog bubble. Chelsea also isn't afraid to repurchase things she loves and tell you about it, which is what makes me trust her opinion, because when you see three empty containers of something, you know it's good.

DerpinaMode (Sanne & Marion)
Sanne and Marion both have their own individual channels, and Sanne talks about books, while Marion's is more of a variety but showcases her amazing filmmaking skills. They made this channel as a way to learn about makeup, because when they started, they were newbies, and it has been really fun to watch their skills progress. I also feel like they give realistic recommendations and everything is very relatable. Every time I watch a video I just want to hang out with them. They are a very close second to my top blogger!

And finally, my number one favorite...

ViviannaDoesMakeup
I have my friend Maddie to thank for this one, she introduced me to Anna's blog about two years ago, and I have been a total fangirl ever since. Her taste is impeccable, her website absolutely gorgeous, and I can marathon her videos on the daily. I love her style and her willingness to experiment with makeup while still sticking to her favorite minimal looks. I really admire someone who is honest about how much they like a product, and I also think that Anna is very good at giving thorough reviews that make me know whether or not I want to buy something even though we don't have the exact same coloring or skin type. Also, she's a very skilled enabler and I could probably write a novel about all of the things I have purchased because of her recommendation, makeup and clothes!
