I began to delve into the world of social media and youtube when I was around 9 or 10. I have vivid memories staying up late on my Nook Tablet that my mom bought me for summer reading, but I actually used for watching makeup tutorials at 11:30 pm.
Ever since, the world of social media has blown up. YouTubers are basically celebrities and Instagram is the new place for models to kick start their careers. As I've grown up, I still have a soft spot for youtube vloggers... okay I absolutely love them.
I tend to go through fazes of what I like to watch and follow online, so I'm currently following a couple of girls who all live similar lives. They all have their differences, but I love their zest for life and genuine love for helping others navigate their lives in a healthy and conscious way.
I've been watching Maggie for almost 2 years now, and I can honestly say she's been a huge influence on me as a teenager. From her simple and comfy style, to gorgeous jewelry collection, and to her passion for healthy eating and living, she's the type of girl you'd want your daughter to look up to.
Her channel is mostly vlog style with a couple of sit down videos. If you ever need advice on lip products, where to buy quality gold jewelry, or outfit inspiration, I couldn't recommend her enough!
I actually found Kenzie through Maggie's channel and I have been loving her content ever since. Her online presence mostly takes place on Instagram and her blog, where she inspires thousands of girls to lead a life of healthy eating through 'Food Combining'. She has recently been posting YouTube videos about this way of eating, which are super helpful if you are interested in it. I love implementing Food Combining into my eating habits, as it promotes proper digestion, prevents bloating, gives you more energy, and much more. I'll probably do a future blog post on Food Combining, but I want to gain more experience eating this way before I share.
Lauren has been someone I have watched ever since I was little, but recently came back to her at the beginning of this year. Her personality is so real and she is so genuine to her YouTube subscribers. She also has a new clothing brand that is basically my dream closet all in one. She's another one who I trust when it comes to fashion and quality jewelry recommendations. I just never get sick of her and her wonderful message of self-care and self-love.
Now Lauryn from 'The Skinny Confidential' is a rather new influencer to me, but I just can't get enough of her content. She is mainly a entrepreneur who branded herself by blogging for years online. Her platform is now huge and she is constantly putting out new content and growing her business everyday. I also listen to her podcast that features her husband, and it never fails to make me laugh on any given day. I trust every recommendation she makes, as I haven't been failed by her yet, so I highly recommend you check her out!
