In this episode, Nicol and her boyfriend and manager Nick, offer advice to novice Beauty Vloggers and discuss Nicol’s success in the world of online beauty.

6 Key Interview Takeaways

1.) Put your heart and soul into your work. Nicol’s “all or nothing” attitude toward building her brand as a beauty vlogger on Instagram and YouTube led to her success. She was even willing to quit her job as a medical assistant to create content full time.

2.) Find your niche. Nicol’s work is unique in that she consistently uploads Instagram videos that are entertaining and educational. She is not afraid to be silly and make mistakes!

3.) Get organized. Create a plan to outline the posts you will complete on a given day and utilize tools like Google Calendar to stay on top of your to-do list.

4.) Never underestimate the power of a hashtag. Nicol’s collaborations with cosmetic companies helped her reputation grow, and she came to the attention of those companies by tagging the products and tools she was using on Instagram.

5.) It is not necessary to invest a lot of money in camera equipment. If you are just getting started on Instagram, the Sony A5100 is an affordable beginner camera. That is the camera that she uses.

6.) Do your homework. Nicol is constantly doing research to stay aware of current trends. She follows celebrity makeup artists online and uses Pinterest as a source of inspiration.
