I can see why she has reached 3 million subs, which is more than I can say for the wave of newer Youtubers who seem to just know how to act like Youtube celebrities and spew out collab after collab but are reaching 1 million in a heart beat.

I like her a lot and I can see why she's popular she's relatable to a lot of teenagers... uses drugstore makeup and her videos are well edited....

However as a 22 year old, I can't really relate to her... I don't use a lot of drugstore makeup and her outfits seem too childish for me. Like her school series is cute for someone who's in middle/high school but as someone who's going into their last year of college... her advice is useless.

Ugh I know! To me that's just as bad as walking into Walmart in August and seeing Halloween stuff already for sale

To make more money. She's running out of ideas. Wait for Halloween to roll around and bam! More videos

I wish she was closer to an age I could relate to or at least acted like it. Whoever edits/films her videos does a great job. The only problem is she's way too teeny bopper for me to relate to

I'm actually a tiny bit younger than her and even I can't relate myself to her. But overall I think she's fun to watch.

I personally think Bethany seems like a friendly and nice person.. but one of those friendly and nice people who is so incredibly friendly that it gets annoying after awhile. She probably isn't all that bad off camera.. but on camera she seems so desperate to fit in and talk like one of those annoying tumblr hipsters. (No offense to any tumblr hipsters here on GG) I do appreciate her bubbly-ness though. I can only really relate to that.

I'm a teenager who is younger than Beth and I cant stand her videos anymore. I used to look at her videos like they were the beauty bible. But she is soooo fake and she's so immature for her age. I think her aeropostale line is nothing new ideas are being recycled from past seasons . :roll:

I agree with indielux. I used to like her in the very beginning. But I swear she's the one who started the whole, overly excited, loud obnoxious persona all gurus feel they have to have to gain subscribers. I know a lot of people feel it started with Blair but I think it started with Bethany. She is way too fake and over produced now. She doesn't come up with her own anything for her videos. The DIYs, the looks, etc, is all someone else. None of it is really her. I think her being so private makes it seem more real to preteens and young teens.

I want to be happy for her having her own line, but how much of it is really her? How much of it was her hard work? And how much of it was everybody behind the scenes with her just as the face?

I think she is one of the prettiest girl from youtube. I really like her look. And she looks gorgeous with and without make-up, unlike some of the other gurus (*cough* Zoe)

I didn't mean that she should talk about it in her videos etc, I meant that she acts if she's only in it for fun which I find hard to believe. She just doesn't seem real to me.
^ It would be hard for her not to be in it for the money. She makes roughly 25,000$ per video.

honestly when i started watching beauty users on youtube i despised bethany. i hated her 'randomness' which wasn't random at all.

but alas, here i am subscribed to her. she is just so damn consistent with the quality and content of her videos. she's always enthusiastic and enjoyable to watch. also i think it's admirable she takes the time to film in potentially awkward crowded places.

i'm not going to be taking her fashion or beauty advice or anything but i enjoy watching her and i can see how much she cares about her channel and subbies and how much she puts into her videos. she's genuine, hard working and a nice girl. i can see why so many people are subscribed to her

She is literally a 6 year old child. That is all I have to say.
