These Black Beauty YouTubers Are Creating The Most Helpful, Funny, Gorgeous Videos

While buying from Black-owned brands and giving attention and donations (if you have the means to) to Black-led organizations is a great way to help enact change, you can do even more by also supporting Black creatives and content creators. One way to do that is to support and subscribe to Black beauty YouTubers. Alongside donating, learning, and sharing information, a necessary step in ending systematic racism is to amplify Black voices and the Black creators carving out necessary spaces for the Black community.

So many Black beauty creators have been churning out amazing looks, tutorials, reviews, and more since the beginning of YouTube’s history. Despite the hundreds of thousands of amazing videos created by Black BeauTubers, not one Black person sits among the 10 highest-subscribed BeauTubers, according to a report from Statista. Alongside that, the beauty industry has a long history of lacking diversity and inclusivity in products, shade ranges, Black models, Black employees, and so many other areas. To help inspire change in the whole industry, actively subscribing to and engaging with Black creators and influencers is essential.

If you love learning new makeup tricks or just love the ASMR of someone applying makeup, below is a list of some of the amazingly talented Black Beautubers changing the game and carving a necessary space for Black creators in the beauty industry.
