During this time of the year, YouTube makeup artists are at their very best as they spew out video after video of amazing looks to copy for the upcoming Halloween. Makeup is a difficult skill to learn, for example I wouldn’t know that I had to put concealer after foundation and not before. Now, Michelle Phan is currently the most subscribed female on YouTube if you didn’t know her already but in this article we’d like to highlight other YouTube makeup gurus who are just as amazing. Who says beauty and brains don’t go together?

Hailing from Japan is Asahi, the woman behind manwomanfilm. It doesn’t matter that you don’t speak or understand Japanese because her flamboyant style and enthusiasm will sweep you off your feet with her over the top smiles and cheeky glances. Asahi doesn’t speak in her videos but plays it up with good music, good lighting and great editing. Her products are showcased clearly in the video in case you want to get what she’s using. She uses the famous 88 palette a lot. Her looks are often accompanied by hair tutorials towards the end.

Promise Phan is Michelle Phan’s sister in law whose roots are from Nepal. Her exotic looks coupled with her mindblowing makeup transformation skills are a marriage made in cosmetic heaven. The video that kicked it off for her was her Neytiri Avatar makeup and since then she has done transformation videos from Kim Kardashian to Kate Middleton to Adriana Lima to Angelina Jolie and even Scarlett Johansson. What’s freaky is that she does look like them at the end of the video! We also love her Disney princess makeup looks such as Mulan, Belle and Ariel from The Little Mermaid.

Just like her username, Lindy Tsang is probably the bubbliest personality on YouTube. Currently based in Hong Kong, this British born Chinese exudes cuteness out of every pore. Though her channel is relatively young (2 years), she’s popular for her simple but easy makeup tutorials that are relevant to our Asian weather and climate something. We all know that foundations and primers can be quite tricky under the heat. Bubbi as she is known to her fans also specializes in DIY tutorials from fashion to skincare with a comedy channel called Bubbiosity to boot
