1. Tori Sterling (US)

Tori was only 12 years old when she first came upon make up tutorials on YouTube. She had always been interested in the beauty industry. First wanting to be a manicurist, then a hairdresser, her interest then evolved to becoming a fashion designer and now a makeup artist. She now has her own makeup studio at her home where she aims to give young girls an affordable makeover for a special occasion.

2. Amy Pocock (UK)

Amy’s creativity finds its stage in her blog, ‘The Camera’s Lying.’ She writes about a whole range of subjects including fashion, photography, beauty, music and literature. Her personal thoughts and musings are given voice in her blog and has been entertaining her loyal group of readers.

3. Laura (US)

Laura is your typical girl next door with a typical affinity to makeup. While she believes that beauty is much more than skin deep, she loves the creativity and confidence that makeup can offer though. After years of obsessively watching beauty videos on YouTube, last summer she was finally brave enough to upload a video of her own. Since then she’s had an amazing time chatting to her camera about all things beauty related including reviews, hauls, and favourites – more than anything she loves the sense of community that the YouTube beauty world can offer!

4. Jill B (US)

Jill started her YouTube channel (Jill B) almost 4 years ago and has loved every single minute of it. She is excited every time she posts a new videos every Wednesday and she truly enjoys responding and interacting with her viewers. She loves to do “real time reviews” to show how the product actually wears over time, hauls, makeup tutorials including tips and tricks, and basically she just loves sharing her beauty knowledge with other fellow beauty enthusiasts. She is a mommy of two beautiful children and when she is not talking about makeup and making videos, she enjoys spending as much time with them as possible.

5. Sheri Wong (Australia)

6. Tina Daffon (US)

Tina was born and raised in the Bay Area. She started her blog and YouTube channel (OfficialStinaD) over a year ago and was overwhelmed with the support she has received so far. She loves sharing her makeup experience with everyone from tips and tricks to products she loves and hates. Makeup helps her express herself in a creative outlet and most of all she has fun doing it. After getting all the love and support from family and friends she finally made the leap into doing Freelance Makeup on the side. She loves meeting new people and learning something new with every gig. After years of experimenting with makeup she has learned to embrace beauty and never mask it.
