So I've finally created my blog!
I have always wanted to write a blog but I was never sure what I would blog about.
I just wanted to give you a little background information to help you understand what brought me to this moment. I may go off course a little but bare with me as it will all make sense in the end...
In September 2006 I created my Youtube account, Daniirella, where I proceeded to upload video's of myself playing the piano as I wanted some honest feedback. My last piano video was uploaded in 2009 and from then until May 2014 I only used Youtube to watch other people's content.
Over the last few years I have really started to get into Beauty & Skincare products, so a couple of years back I began watching beauty videos and subsequently some vlogs on Youtube. I loved to watch other people's reviews of products and I always enjoy reading the comments section on just about every video and article relating to anything that interests me.
As well as beauty I am also into all things gadgets and gaming and so me and my boyfriend would also watch gaming video's on Youtube together. I think it was just before Christmas that we were watching some gaming videos and I said to him "You should do that".
He thought about it for a while and decided he wouldn't mind trying it. At this point in our lives we were getting pretty bored with most things and I for one did not feel motivated in any aspect of my life.
So my boyfriend Andrew started his gaming channel and after a few months of watching his progress I was doing my usual routine of watching some beauty videos in bed before I went to sleep and it suddenly dawned on me... hang on a minute, I can do this too!
So at the end of May I finally uploaded my first video to Youtube which was a monthly favourites video. I'm not really used to having a camera in my face under any circumstances and so as you can imagine I messed up what I was trying to say... A LOT.
So needless to say it gave me plenty of chance to practice my editing skills and I also had enough footage for my second video... THE BLOOPERS!
Anyway, it was around the time I started to record for my Youtube channel that I was doing a little more research on beauty vlogging and I discovered most of the Youtube beauty vloggers also had beauty blogs.
I followed a link to Blog Lovin' from someones blog, signed up and started following all my favourite vloggers plus some new bloggers I'd not heard of before. I've been reading my blogs everyday as well as watching video's and I am thoroughly entertained.
I hope to provide some sort of advice and entertainment to other people like myself and that's all I can hope for.
So now for the first time in a very long time I find myself motivated to do something. I find myself feeling excited and looking forward to filming and blogging. I can't wait to see how I can contribute to the world of Beauty and to the lives of my readers and viewers.
Feel free to follow me on my journey by following my blog or subscribing to my Youtube channel.
Bye for now,
D.
