Our Favorite Youtubers




Hello Beautiful!


I think it's easy to say that we both loooove Youtube and that we spend most of our time watching tutorials, reviews, comedians, etc. We've thus decided to give you our list of must watch youtubers that we keep up with almost every day. We hope that it will inspire you to love them as much as we do. The first four will be presented by Brigitte and the last four by me, and we will tell you exactly why these youtubers have a great place in our hearts.

                                                                Grace Helbig
 

Grace started making youtube videos in 2008 for a company called My Damn Channel. She was with them for 5 years until she left to pursue her own channel in January 2014. She had amassed over 2 million subscribers, and left to start over on her own terms. She has since then, starred in a movie that she helped to co-produce (Camp Takota), toured U.S.A with Mamrie Hart and Hannah Hart (no relation) to perform comedy shows, and has participated on some other youtube shows like Hey USA with Mamrie Hart. I can’t talk enough about her. I find her hilarious, and I know that it won’t be everyone’s cup of tea, but give it a shot. She has taken improvisation classes and studied in screenwriting, which I find really shows in her content. I really look up to her as a youtuber and as a business woman. She also recently wrote a book Grace’s Guide : The Art of Pretending to be a Grown Up. She always sees the brighter side in life, and she makes me want to do the same. I especially enjoy her cooking videos, and her videos on My Damn Channel (DailyGrace) are really worth checking out too. You can find her on Grace Helbig on youtube.

Hannah Hart

Hannah’s start on youtube was kind of a lucky one. She was just skyping with a friend and decided to record herself by cooking something while getting drunk. She then decided to post on youtube, and fast forward 3 years and over 1 million subscribers and voila, My Drunk Kitchen as we all know and love. Hannah also recently wrote a book called My Drunk Kitchen, a sort of parody on cookbooks, and it is absolutely glorious! She also tours in the United-States, Canada and Europe with Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart to perform in comedy shows. What I really like about Hannah is her positive attitude towards anything in life. She also has an amazing talent of making puns; you really have to see to believe! She has an honesty about her where she really let’s us see the real, vulnerable her. You can find her under Harto on youtube.

Ingrid Nilsen / Missglamorazzi

Ingrid started her Youtube channel in 2009 and has since acquired over 3 million subscribers! She mainly does videos about beauty, fashion, andhas a series of DIY and cooking videos. She has also participated in a few shows off youtube, including being a fashion correspondent on the last VMA’s red carpet. You might’ve also seen her on Project Runway Threads, which is basically the same show idea, but for kids. I stumbled upon her one day, and I just couldn’t really stop watching. Her videos are always really well made, and she gives really good tips. She’s super bubbly and entertaining to watch. One of the main reasons I like to watch her are her cooking videos because of their simplicity and their healthy content. Her main channel is Ingrid Nilsen, and she also has a second channel, TheGridMonster where she posts her vlogs.

Joe Sugg / ThatcherJoe 

Other than being Zoe (Zoella) Sugg’s brother, Joe has had his own channel since 2011 and has already accumulated over 3 million subscribers. He makes comedic content varying from imitations to pranks. His videos are always lighthearted, and I really enjoy watching his vlogs. Joe and Zoe have such an amazing view on life, and watching them reminds me to laugh and to not take life too seriously. I really enjoy his sense of humor and his weird and funny challenges. I love watching him in colabs, because I know it’ll be good. He also has a gaming channel, which I don’t watch, but if you’re into that sort of thing check it out! You can find him on ThatcherJoe and ThatcherJowVlogs.
Zoe Sugg AKA Zoella:
Speaking of Zoe, she is a young british beauty youtuber/blogger who's first video dates to 2009. This quirky little lady made us fall in love at first watch when we fell on one of her videos last year. With 6 million subscribers, this starlet has created a fan base that supports her in all of her projects, most recently, her book Girl Online and her bath product line Zoella Beauty. Her videos often consists of hauls, tutorials and fun collaborations with other youtubers. I love watching her, she is so honest and open with her viewers, including her struggle with anxiety. She is so incredibly bubbly that it's kind of hard to not like her. She makes great quality videos and also vlogs, often times with her youtuber boyfriend Alfie Deyes and their new baby pug Nala. I highly recommend that you check her out if you like beauty videos.
 
Mamrie Hart

Having joined Youtube in 2009, Mamrie, comedic actress, is just as hilarious as Grace and is the maker of the Youtube series You Deserve a Drink (YDAD). Her show consists of making alcoholic drinks in honor of different actors, authors, movies, etc. The best part of it all is that she does it, all while making dirty puns that are so terrible that you won't be able to control the laughter. A lot of her work is done in collaboration with Grace and Hannah and that makes for amazing content. Her videos are a joy to watch when you just want a good laugh. I was surprised to see that she only has 8 thousand subscribers because she is the bomb.dot.com. 


Bunny Meyer AKA grav3yardgirl

Bunny's oldest video dates from December 2010. Advocate for individuality and staying true to yourself, Bunny is an inspiration for young girls everywhere. Most of her earliest videos consist of  stories about her paranormal experiences, but nowadays, her channel is much different as she now tends to go towards hauls, makeup tutorials, reviews for products and As Seen On TV items, "Pintertests", etc. This "Sassy" texan lady has all kinds of catch phrases and is the self proclamed "Swamp Queen" who welcomes all viewers to join the "Swamp family" in order to "give an alligator its wings". This Swamp Family of hers stretches out to 4 million loyal subscribers. Her enthusiasm and uniqueness makes her real a pleasure to watch. I enjoy her so much that I've even gone back to watch her oldest videos, despite the fact that they may no longer be relevant. 

Rhett and Link
These youtubers are classics considering that their first video dates to 2006. These guys are known making music videos about incredibly random things with their pretty impressive musical talent. They also have a morning talk show on their second channel called Good Mythical Morning. These guys never fail at having quality videos that are hilarious to watch for all of their 2 million subscribers. I first saw them when my friend showed me their videos when I was in high school, and I had forgotten about them until I started being obsessed with Youtube and rediscovered them. Their talent is overwhelming and they are, for sure, a must watch. 

Now that we've talked all about our favorite Youtube stars, we want you to go check them out for yourselves and, just maybe, you'll fall in love with them as much as we did. Obviously, we have other youtubers that we enjoy watching, but the list couldn't go on forever! We hope you enjoyed this post and that it will open the door on an obsession just as unhealthy as ours (just so we don't feel as crazy). Have a good week and stay beautiful!

XOXO
Amélie & Brigitte

  1. I love all the youtubers you suggested! I can suggest Leighannsays for a lesser known beauty guru. She's quirky and cool and is friends with Bunny actually. Also, the Vlogbrothers are some of my faves!

  2. Really cool stuff!
    Always love discovering new channels :)
    Also, I appreciate seeing a lot of ladies on the list, as except for a select few, people usually only talk about guy channels and it can be hard to find something else!
