YouTube is a platform shared by people from all around the globe, but did you know some of YouTube’s most recognized beauty content creators started right here in Toronto? While most have taken their success to Los Angeles, the heart of the YouTube community, these creators are still locals at heart and can be found vlogging around the city when visiting. While each unique beauty channel focuses on different areas, they all have one thing in common – our attention.
Here is On Q’s list of top beauty YouTubers from Toronto.
Gigi Gorgeous
Gigi’s content covers everything beauty related but what separates her from the crowd is her commitment to spreading awareness and positivity about the transgender community. Gigi began her YouTube channel as Gregory Gorgeous in 2008 and has documented her journey ever since.
