A lot of my favourite YouTubers have under 1 million subscribers. So I thought instead of just doing my favourite YouTubers I would do the ones with a smaller amount because some of these you may not know however they are as good as the people with 5 million subscribers.

main channels
Ebony Day - Ebony does all different types of videos and I think she is a really enjoyable YouTuber and seems like a really nice person.

Emily Canham - A lot of you have probably heard of Emily already but I love her videos! She does mostly beauty and hauls.

Olivia Grace - I have mentioned her in other blog posts and I still really like her videos now. She is really bubbly and chatty in her videos, I like her fashion ones especially.

Fabulous Hannah - Hannah does mostly beauty videos with a few random ones too. They are all fun and entertaining.

Floral Princess - I have been really enjoying Ana at the moment, she does a lot of different videos and I really like her collabs as well.

Gabriella - My favourite Youtuber is Gabriella because she is a amazing Youtuber and she seems so nice and genuine.

Lovevie - She is a really entertaining YouTuber as she is chatty and funny. Evie does a mix of videos.

LucyAndLydia - I really like joint channels at the moment and Lucy and Lydia are always so happy in their videos which makes them so enjoyable.

Sophia and Cinzia - I love this channel! Their vlogs are amazing as are their normal ones. They are really funny and chatty together.

SophDoesNails - Soph does mostly makeup videos with a few haul and collabs every now and then. She is amazing at makeup and I really enjoy her videos.

vlog channels
Our Tiny Tribe - This is Ebony Day's vlog channel but recently changed it to a family channel as she is pregnant. Her vlogs are so good like her main channel.

Gabriella Lindley - As I said Gabriella is my favourite YouTuber and her vlogs are just as amazing as her main channel.

Saffron Barker Vlogs - Saffron daily vlogs and I really enjoy watching them. I would include her main channel but she recently hit 1 million!

Floral Princess Vlogs - Ana recently started this channel but I have been loving the videos so far and not many of you would of heard about it so I decided to include it.

Those are my favourites at the moment and i hope you discovered some new YouTubers through this. I would love to know your favourites at the moment so leave a comment.

*ignore the dent in one of them

I have seen Lottie London a few times on the internet for the last couple of the months, so I decided to pick up one of there things. I got the Shimmer Squad Highlighter Kit which looked beautiful and really pigmented when I swatched it in Superdrug. The kit was £10 and on first impressions I thought it was a good price for what you get.

The packaging is simple but different to everything else in the drugstore. It is black with white stripes and stars on and has a few pops of pink. When you open it you have a small square mirror on the lid. I think the packaging isn't that luxury but I think it is nice.

For the actually product themselves, the highlighters are gorgeous. You get four in this palette and I love all of them all. They are all very different colours, there are a highlighters for lighter skin tones and darker skin tones.

The first one is called 'The Good Girl' this is a light pink toned Highlighter, these types of colours are the shades I normally go for. Next is 'The Flirt' which is a coppery golden colour this one is lovely but doesn't suit my skin tone so I have been using this as eye shadow which I think looks amazing as well. I think this would look stunning on darker skin. Thirdly is 'The Troublemaker' which is a white champagne-y sort of colour. This one is very white so if I wear this then I have to use quite a light hand or mix it with one of the others. Finally is 'The Queen Bee' which is a golden shade. I'm not normally one that will wear gold highlights but this one is really pretty.

I think this is incredible and I would recommend for you too try it out. For £10 for four really pigmented, gorgeous highlighter shades I would definitely buy this if you are looking for some new ones. I will be looking at the other Lottie London products to try out as well because I love this one so much.

Have you ever tried any Lottie London products?
