Last Thursday we had the honor of meeting one of our favourite youtube beauty guru's at a meet up in Manchester at Spinningfields. Gracie other wise known as UglyFaceOfBeauty (who is the opposite of ugly and even more stunning in person). So here's our fangirling experience.
Bekka:
I wrote her a letter the night before which she said she'll read ahh. Just saying thanks for being there when I'm feeling down or alone. I can just watch her videos and get cheered up by her jokes and positive energy, which helps a lot with my anxiety and paranoia. (More to come on that in a post very soon). She hugged us and said hi, and damn did she smell good it's either the victoria secret body spray she always hauls or some kind of perfume. I was shaking whilst talking to her it's so weird to see someone who's on your phone or computer screen in real life. She said hi and talked to us. We took selfies of course, had to be done.
She's even more beautiful in person. Her curves and eyebrows are out of this world. As a curvy girl myself seeing her in person having the confidence to wear whatever the fuck she wants. Just makes me more ambitious and allows me to have the confidence to try new things and experiment in my very SAFE style. Her boyfriend Simon is so cute and seemed really shy. They're definitley my beyonce and jay-z of the youtubesphere after watching the boyfriend does my makeup tag.
It was fab to meet a down to earth blogger/vlogger who's so big and successful but who is also a normal person. With a lovely personality and great energy.
Kiana:
Where do I start? Well the moment we met her was more intense due to the build up, as we were on a rat race trying to find out where she was and of course it was raining, typical British weather..We finally found her and we literally didn't know what to do with ourselves, we was scurrying trying to get our umbrellas in our bags and desperately trying to get our letters. It was so nerve-wrecking seeing Gracie in reality (hence the big blur in my pictures), she came over to us and she's exactly the same as she is on YouTube, a proper down to earth gyal. The hug came automatically and the first thing I said was 'you smell soo good', and literally her eyebrows were on fleek, to be honest her whole make-up game was on point.
I was that nervous that I had verbal diarrhoea, it was all coming out at once, obviously I expressed my love for her channel and when she reads my letter she'll hopefully be reminded of 'our moment' lol. She's soo beautiful and her outfit was perfectly co-ordinated I especially loved her coat very bright and out there like her personality.
Not forgetting her little accomplice and boyfriend Simon, he was very handsome and they make such a cute couple, that was definitely confirmed after watching her recent video 'Boyfriend does my make-up'. I'm so happy that's she in a good place and I love how she's confident with her body image and reps it for the curvier gurls out there. I can definitely say that I will be there the next time she does a meet up, but hopefully I'll be a bit more calm and more prepared.
Thanks for reading,
Bekka & Kiana
