Beauty Vlogger Bootcamp with Elle and Blair

U look haute's series Beauty Vlogger Bootcamp with Elle and Blair ended recently, and Rachel rose to the top. I was not a fan of Rachel in the beginning. But after seeing more of the show I began to actually find interest in her. She doesn't seem stuck-up, as she was in the beginning. I think you just need to give people a chance. I know first impressions are important to creating relationships, but some people just get nervous or shy, which sometimes translates to cockiness. I think Rachel did a great job, nonetheless.

Giselle also did really well and, to be honest, I would have subscribed to her channel before Rachel's. Giselle seems really put-together and just has a poise about her that seems to be inviting (I guess she learned it from being in beauty pageants??). I voted for Giselle based on her final video - her video seemed more informational and seemed like it was really worth something. Anyway, they both did a fantastic job and each deserved a shot at winning!

How great did Elle and Blair look in the videos?? Their outfits were super cute and everything just looked glam. You could really tell that in the beginning episodes the girls were super nervous and not as out-going as they are in their personal videos... I'm sure they were just as nervous as the contestants. Hopefully now that they have some experience hosting, it will become easier for them...and possibly get on TV shows in the near future. I just love them!!!

How do you feel about Beauty Vlogger Bootcamp? Do you think Rachel deserved to win? Let me know your thoughts :)

What's there to love about Elle and Blair? Everything!

So I've been following Elle Fowler for quite some time now, and I have to say....the hate comments about her are just ridiculous. These people really have nothing better to do than to bash these girls? If you don't like them, don't watch them. It's not like they're forcing you to watch. You watch because you want to.

Who cares if Elle got her nose done...whether she did or not, why is that a bad thing? Everyone has insecurities, and if plastic surgery makes them feel less insecure, great! If you look good, you feel good. It just doesn't make sense, and it's none of your business either. Elle is beautiful regardless.

Blah blah..."Elle isn't even her real name" - So?! Many artists don't use their real name, and instead use a stage name. Do you bash Lady Gaga because she doesn't use her real name? Sometimes it's nice to not have your real name blasted out on the Internet, for safety reasons. Elle's real name is Lisa...which starts with an "L" so maybe that's just what her friends called her, so it stuck. Before you know the whole story, don't assume the worst. Most of you think she's being sneaky, or not all that truthful...but do you watch her or follow her to be her best friend? No!

I've seen rumors that they get paid to promote certain products in their videos. Just like any other commercial you see with a celebrity, they are endorsing a product. Just because they do, doesn't mean it's the best product in the world. You have a choice as to whether or not you want to go out and buy that product, and that's the great part about life - YOU HAVE A CHOICE. Elle and Blair have even stated in their videos that when they receive a new product to try they use it several times to see if they would continue using it, but are posting the video to share with us about their initial experience; they have creative freedom.

I think it's great that Elle and Blair do their videos in their bedroom. It just makes it that much more personable than being in front of a backdrop or scene. Some of you think it's unprofessional, but it just allows us to feel closer to them.

The jealousy is what leads to all the hate comments. You're envious and WISH that you were as successful as Elle. You know when you're finally successful when you have haters wishing the worst upon you and always trying to put you down. It takes a lot to ignore it all and continue doing what you love, and I commend Elle on that!

So stop all the hating and appreciate a girl just trying to share her tips with the world. If you don't like it, don't watch!
