When it comes to beauty bloggers and vloggers, Australia has some of the best in the world. Not only that, but there are so many of them you can tune in at any time you like. So how do you pick them out? Here is our round-up of the top 5 Aussie beauty YouTubers, along with some important facts about them that you might want to know.
1. Lauren Curtis
It had to be Lauren at number 1! She has over 3.5 million subscribers on her YouTube channel that she first launched back in 2011. Her goal is to inspire self-confidence in women, teaching them to be comfortable in their own skin and ignoring criticism from others. A 23-year-old living in Perth, she posts videos with makeup tutorials and guidance on skincare routines. She is the biggest and most-followed beauty blogger on the Australian scene, and has a website where she posts blogs to accompany her videos and give you more of an insight into her style and outlook on life.
2. Chloe Morello
Since starting her channel in 2012, Morello has quickly amassed more than 1.8 million subscribers. Her fun and informative style makes her tutorials very educational, especially that she also offers advice on hair and fashion. She lives on the New South Wales coast and is currently 25-year-old. Interestingly, she used to work at her family’s crematorium before hitting it big on YouTube! She also does celebrity tutorials showing you how to pull off the looks from red carpet events. Yet, she didn’t manage to escape a recent small scandal (which might have boosted her popularity as well) when she wore a hijab in one of her tutorials, dividing her fanbase into two opposite fronts!
3. Kashani Grimmond
Like all beauty vloggers, Kashani also doesn’t hide her love for makeup, and so her YouTube channel just had to be dedicated to it. She launched her first video in 2011 and with just 19 years of age today has already made an impact with more than 800,000 followers. She lives in Brisbane and posts new updates every 3 or 4 days. Sporting a very glamorous style, her beauty sense certainly appeals to younger girls who want to keep up with the latest makeup trends and always look flawless. The vlogger is also appreciated for posting both tutorials as well as product reviews.
4. Britney Lee Saunders
If you want more than just beauty for your money, then beautybybritneyx is the place for you. Britney has tons of personality and uses it to go on long rants, put out comedy skits, and even sing alongside her beauty tutorials. She started her channel in 2011 and has over 700,000 followers to date. She’s just 23-year-old but already has her own skincare line, NKD, and lives in Newcastle, New South Wales.
5. Karissa Pukas
Although she lives in Australia, Karissa is actually Canadian by origin – but don’t let that put you off! She currently has over 700,000 subscribers on her channel, which she began in 2010. She is 25-year-old and currently resides in the Central Coast area. Covering beauty along with fashion and lifestyle topics in her videos, Karissa has a very chatty style in which she is constantly entertaining her viewers. She also knew how to fill a gap on the market and make use of the new eco trends, setting up a business offering vegan-friendly false eyelashes.
