Celebrating 7 Years on YouTube: A Journey Through Old Videos
Hello there! It’s hard to believe that I’ve been sharing my life and experiences on YouTube for seven incredible years. In this blog post, we’ll take a nostalgic trip down memory lane as I revisit some of my old videos. This journey started back in 2017, and I never imagined it would transform into such a significant part of my life.
This post is inspired by my recent video titled “Reacting To My Old Videos | Celebrating 7 Years On YouTube“, where I reflect on how far I’ve come, the changes I’ve made, and the content that shaped my channel. If you haven’t seen it yet, feel free to check it out here:
A Look Back at Milestones and Memories
As I scroll through my channel, it’s fascinating to see how my filming setup has evolved. No longer am I awkwardly sitting on the floor, reaching through tripod legs; I now have a comfortable chair and a well-lit space that enhances the viewing experience. The improvement in quality over time is something I hope you’ve noticed as well!
- Engagement and Growth: It’s heartwarming to think about how many of you have been with me from the very beginning or have just discovered my channel. Each view, comment, and share has contributed to our vibrant community.
- Old Favorites vs. New Discoveries: Revisiting past videos allows me to reconnect with products I loved. For instance, my 5-Minute Makeup video from 2018 features some timeless favorites like Chanel’s skin tint and Glossier’s Boy Brow—products I’ve used consistently for years.
Rediscovering Iconic Products
As I dive into these older videos, I’m reminded of several iconic products that have stood the test of time. Here are a few highlights:
- Chanel Skin Tint: This was my go-to in 2018, and though new formulas have emerged, nothing quite compares to its unique blend.
- Ilia Multisticks: These multitaskers are still among my favorite items, proving that sometimes, the classics just work.
- Becca Champagne Pop: Although it’s no longer available, this highlighter remains a cherished memory. Imagine how viral it could have gone on platforms like TikTok!
Some products have come and gone, but certain staples, like Bobby Brown’s crushed lip color, continue to be my favorites even after six years. This loyalty to effective products emphasizes their quality and my genuine appreciation for them.
Behind the Scenes: Content Creation Challenges
Creating content isn’t without its challenges. When looking back at my early collaborations, such as the one featuring Megan Markle, it’s evident how much effort goes into production. With over 35 celebrity makeup bag videos under my belt, each one is intricate and time-consuming. I aim to bring them back in 2025, so stay tuned!
Reflecting on Beauty Trends and Changes
Over the years, beauty trends have shifted dramatically. One memorable trend that resurged in my content is Clinique’s Black Honey. Its unexpected rise to fame demonstrated how vintage products can find new life in the era of social media. Its popularity on TikTok had everyone buzzing, and my video discussing it amassed millions of views!
Nostalgia and Community Connection
It’s remarkable to see how our community has grown. People often reach out, reminiscing about my travel vlogs and other content they’ve enjoyed. Knowing that my recommendations have influenced your travels—like trying sweet treats in New York—is incredibly fulfilling.
Looking Towards the Future
As we celebrate this seven-year milestone together, I want to hear from you! What videos or topics have resonated with you the most? Are there any products from your old makeup bags that you still cherish today? Your feedback is invaluable and helps shape my future content.
Key Takeaways
- Nostalgia is Powerful: Revisiting old content reminds me of growth and the importance of connection with my audience.
- Classic Products Endure: Some items simply become staples in our routines, regardless of changing trends.
- Community Matters: Engaging with viewers has led to lasting relationships and meaningful discussions.
