My Favourite YouTube Channels

Writing this blog in itself is a huge form of my procrastination, but along with listening to music, watching Netflix, and of course, napping; watching YouTube is up there with the biggest way I waste my time; but still time reasonably well spent I’d say. The amount of people trying to make it big on YouTube is increasing at an insane rate, so it’s hard to know who is worth your time, and who is creating good original content. I’ve collated a list of my favourite channels, in the hope it will steer people in the right direction YouTube wise (aka not in the direction of Jake and Logan Paul).


Samantha Maria

For all things makeup, fashion and lifestyle, Samantha, or ‘Sammi’ is the gal for you. Not only is she absolutely GORGEOUS, but she has one of the best eyes for style of any fashion channel on YouTube. Everything about her hair, makeup and fashion choices inspire me constantly, and many of my purchases have been through her recommendations. What’s more, she’s recently had a beautiful baby girl called Indie and creates lovely family content with the baby and her husband Jason - what more could you want?!


Hannah Witton 



Talking about all of the subjects that no one will, Hannah (great name) runs a channel full of sex positive content where no subject is off limits. Though everything is done in jest and lightheartedly, herself as well as similar creators that she invites onto her channel, discuss very important topics that help create a safe space on the internet for people to discuss freely anything they want. I always very much look forward to her uploads.


Shane Dawson



Loud, outrageous and never doing anything by halves, Shane Dawson is a big character that won’t suit everyone’s humour. Shane’s channel has gone through a lot of changes in what kind of content he produces, from sketches, trying weird foods, conspiracy theories, you name it. Right now, Shane is taking more of a creative direction with his channel, with bigger productions and crazier ideas - he bought a random YouTuber who made a hate video about him a brand new car, for god’s sake. Whatever the weird content he’s creating, he has an incredibly quick sense of humour and is one of the only people I watch that genuinely makes me laugh out loud.


Tana Mongeau


Undoubtedly the most controversial, unapologetic content creator on YouTube right now, Tana Mongeau’s channel, and life in general, is like a reality show that you can’t help but watch, no matter how scandalous it becomes. At only nineteen years old, Tana has lived a crazy, almost unbelievable life and rose to fame telling those crazy stories. Her content now is outrageous and she doesn’t go more than a few weeks without a major scandal that the whole internet hears about. Like Shane, there are many people that find her content annoying, but I also appreciate her quick humour and her ability to not hold back, no matter how crazy an idea sounds.


Dan and Phil

From Tana, full of controversy and scandal, to the most lovely and wholesome content creators there are. Dan and Phil, both with their separate channels and their joint gaming channel, bring me endless amounts of joy, no matter what they do. By no means experts on playing games, they make hilarious let’s play videos that often end in screaming and frustration. These two are by far my biggest comfort YouTubers, the channels I always go to to cheer me up, or my go to when none of my other faves have uploaded anything good. They are delightful people and I can watch the same videos of theirs over and over with ease, still enjoying them as much as the first time. Who knew two awkaward, tall guys with emo fringes could bring me so much joy - but they really really reallllly do.


Not sure if this is something everyone will have been interested in, but these people bring me a lot of joy so I thought I’d share. It’s apparent that this blog is definitely a bit of everything at the moment but I hope you’re enjoying it :) Anyone who has some cool suggestions for future posts, please let me know! It’s inevitable that I will run out of ideas very quickly lol.

Thanks for reading !

Skincare! My Affordable But Effective Routine

Hey guys,  Today I’m chatting all things skincare and the routine I have developed that has seen some really positive results when it comes to the overall condition and appearance of my skin! I am also going to include to added extra tips outside of my daily routine that have also made a positive impact. Small disclaimer: obviously it goes without saying that this is a routine that works for me and therefore won’t work for everyone. I am therefore going to describe my skin a little and the issues I’ve had that this routine has helped with, so that if you relate to my problems, the products I use may be something you want to try out too! My Skin I don’t think my skin falls on either side of oily or dry, and rather somewhere in between; pretty normal/combination. My main issue is that I get monthly breakouts (hormone related of course) that crop up on my chin, cheeks and forehead. These breakouts would take a week to fully immerse, chill on my face for another week, and it’d be anoth...

My First Original Song: ‘The Colour Red‘

*squeels* Hey guys, As you might remember a good few posts ago now, I vowed that I was going to get back into playing and partially re-learning guitar, after not properly practising since I started uni. I set this promise in stone by buying a new guitar and amp to keep in my London flat and, though I have not reached anywhere close to where I want to be skill-wise, and won’t realistically be able to do that till I have escaped the perils of third year, I am starting to get better and my passion is certainly back. With this passion there has come an overwhelming feeling of wanting to write my own material, something I’ve never previously had any urge to do. Spoiler alert: it’s very difficult. My notes app on my phone is full of random ideas, whether that be chords, lyrics, even just a single phrase, and most do not amount to anything because I get frustrated if there isn’t immediately an obvious way it can be created (something I should probably work on if I want to get any ...

A Levels: A Story of Barely Surviving

As a welcome post to my very first personal blog, it seems uncouth to start on such a depressing, and frankly, triggering note. However, with the freedom to write and post whatever I want here, I might as well get the bad stuff out of the way first. Anyone who knows me is probably thinking 'Jesus Hannah, A Levels were like a year ago, get over it', but the fact that I'm sat here now writing this, indeed a year later, says a lot about what an impact that time of my life had on me. Spoiler alert: a bad one. Maybe I should be writing this kind of stuff in a diary or something, but if one person yet to do A Levels reads and takes something positive away from this, I guess it was worth making public. I believe that the system has now changed and A Level exams all occur at the end of a two year course (and not be scare anyone away, but God help you), but I experienced the more standard AS thing, i.e two years, both with exams at the end. My mistake, and this is one I hope s...
