Youtube makeup tutorials are one of my guilty pleasures and I have several beauty YouTubers that I really enjoy watching. I find nothing more therapeutic after a long day of work than watching someone apply their foundation or create a stunning eye makeup look that I’ll probably never be able to re-create in my lifetime. Is there anything better?
Below are a some of the best beauty YouTubers that teach me a lot about makeup and give me constant beauty inspiration.
1. Kathleen Lights
I found Kathleen Lights‘ channel earlier this year and embarked on a few binge watching sessions shortly thereafter. This gorgeous beauty Youtuber has nabbed over 4 million YouTube subscribers with her infectious personality and honest beauty reviews.
She is so much fun to watch! I think I could listen to her talk about the weather and still be entertained. Her makeup looks are amazing, and I’m a little jealous because she’s practically poreless on camera. More importantly, I trust her reviews and have purchased several items that I love using based on her advice. A great makeup inspiration, especially if you are looking for cosmetics that work on dry skin or eye makeup looks for larger eyes.

2. Sona Gasparian
Sona is a professional makeup artist that can whip up a stunning look in no time. Her beauty tips and tricks videos are super helpful and she posts a variety of makeup looks for every occasion. She also covers hair, skin care and fashion for those of you looking for a one-stop shop for all things beauty and style.
I especially love watching her apply her eye makeup; Sona has hooded eyes, like me, so I’ve learned a lot just from watching her apply her eyeshadows and liners. I’ve tried out a couple of her looks on myself and they work; I actually have eyes!
I’ve posted a link to one of my favourite videos from Sona below on how to accentuate brown eyes. She also has a great do’s and don’ts YouTube video for hooded eyes here.
4. Melissa Alatorre
Melissa is a makeup artist that posts about makeup, hair and skin care. She also provides gorgeous makeup looks with a great focus on the eyes. I could never pull off half the looks she can, but she’s a great inspiration for those of you looking to add some drama to your makeup game. Her Quick Tip Tuesday posts are always useful and she’s just a lot of fun to watch.

5. Tanya Cheban
I found Tanya’s beauty YouTube channel a few months ago and find I can’t resist checking out her latest posts. At only 19 years old, this makeup artist is truly stunning and can achieve a glam look with the simplest of products.
Don’t believe me? Check out her tutorial on back-to-school makeup below. Did you look like this when you went back to school? I sure as hell didn’t!
