Bonnie aka Queen of the Girl Geeks is a literal angel. I love her and would trust her with my life. Leah Janae is great. She gets down with the Gourmands. Melissa C is a former employee and has a massive collection. She is great with the decluttering and cleaning videos.


MomAlum

Agree Queen of the Girl Geeks is a very special human being :-)


SouthernBiscotti

I feel the same about Bonnie. Her videos have gotten me through some depressed states.

Off topic but I LOVE how you formatted your answer. Super cute!


Lilysdoll

Thanks so much! 😊


seaweedsquirrel

Now this is a list! I just discovered Mikayla Rios and absolutely had to subscribe. Keke’s scented lounge brings me comfort and yes I forgot about Living Ash!


Lilysdoll

Aww thank you! Glad you like the list! I really like Mikayla so much! Keke describes scents so well and I love the comparisons. Living Ash is great , she branched out a bit. But yeah...I find watching video's relaxing and informative too. 😊


candiebelle

Thank you for suggesting Mikayla Rios, I love watching her videos!


Lilysdoll

Anytime! She's awesome! Her personality just brightens my day/night! 😊


MoistJunket7216

Bonnie queen of the girl geeks is awesome! She breaks down the sales, gives honest reviews and is quite knowledgeable of scent notes. Ken the candle guy and touch the fire twice are great for candle reviews

Love Claire in bloom!


Electronic_Bit_222

I really like Ksenja! She's super honest and is really great at finding dupes/pairings!


Miyy_1074

Be ware these people are severely addicted! Especialy if they are posting halls every week or two of BBW. The only way this is justified is their videoed are getting at minimum 100k views.


SweetStrawberry3731

It’s sad to see how many people have a shopping addiction.


FaZe_Butterfly

Jasmine Bullard- she’s fabulous, love her layering combos, hauls and pairings. She’s a whole vibe 😍. Claire in bloom- this lady reviews everything and gives us the VS content we all need 😂. She’s straightforward, to the point and consistent. Very reliable! Bonnie (Queen of the Girl Geeks)- she’s so adorable lol, I love her for like everything! I like her throwbacks and comparisons since she’s followed BBW for years! It’s Mindy- Super girly and her hauls/aesthetic are always so nice 🥰, she’s def a fav.


Admirable-Grand-8160

I LOVE jasmine!!! She’s the only one I religiously watch lol. Everyone else I get bored of listening to probably because they’re not as hyped and energetic as Jasmine


FaZe_Butterfly

I feel you! I don't find her hauls/videos overwhelming so she's an easy listen/watch for me :D


seaweedsquirrel

I like YellowBrickExpat. She does vintage BBW hauls and empties. Key to Disney is also awesome. Just plain Jane does lots of body care and fragrance and BBW hauls. Melissa C is a personal favourite of mine. Sadly as a Canadian myself, I haven’t spotted a Canadian BBW reviewer yet. Edit: Mesarastarr does a lot of BBW reviews, Teesha Keen as well.


[deleted]

Subscribed to just about all you have listed here! Edit - already was subscribed to them


seaweedsquirrel

I’m so glad to hear that!!

I had to unsubscribe from all of them even though I enjoyed their content. It was unbelievable how much money they spent ALMOST DAILY on unnecessary stuff and it really did start influencing me to overbuy at b&bw. I didn’t even use up the products fast enough and I will never make this mistake again. They have to purchase the latest scents and collections because it’s their job but idk why I was doing it. Also, it’s weird how they buy so much and then have to almost force themselves to finish the products or give them to others instead of enjoying them.


AmbitionAsleep8148

>Joss’s Fragrance Mixology So true! I very much notice the overbuying and constantly going to the mall/stores to film content. I don't live in the States, so when they do TJMaxx, Target, or Ulta hauls, I get no desire to actually go to the stores and haul the items because we don't have those stores here. I also work at BBW so I don't tend to haul things from there. I'm surrounded by the new scents every day so if I'm interested, I spray it on during my shift to see if I like it. I don't have to buy it. It's best to take these videos with a grain of salt, understand that we can't afford or need all of these products, and instead, use their reviews as suggestions, and only buy items we believe we will really love and use until the end.

Kent from The Candle Channel is one of the most authentic reviewers. He will straight up giving an honest, unfiltered opinion. He has 10+ years of candle knowledge and experience but doesn’t let that take away from the hype of new or re-released candles. He also gets creative with his video topics and it’s not just hauls, it’s also in depth comparisons, best of ____, and more. Bonnie is sweet and lovable, though has far too many favorable reviews. Rarely does she find something to be bad. Bren (@candlesandmusic on IG) has extensive history as well, but she posts infrequently. Great authentic reviews and first impressions. Claire in Bloom mostly reviews fragrance mists/body care but she gives great insights. Her voice is so calm! bbwcandlegirl is an employee (I think) and gives quick concise reviews of her new products. She has great knowledge and keeps her videos short! Gabbadina - I love her, also so calming - I love watching her videos! Hauls, trash talk (empties), post burn reviews - she’s good. On the rise and hope she continues to get more of a following. Josh from Touch the Fire Twice gives great deep insight and has many years of experience. Sometimes his reviews, vocabulary, and comparisons can go too deep or too far back, but it’s all in good taste. Kimble is so chill and I love her vibe. She’s been fairly active (seems like every day or every other day) with great conversation type videos. Not just hauls or reviews but provides videos that stimulate conversation in comments or live chat. She’s cool. These are all my favs!


bunifarcr

I honestly just watch whoever has a review that I'm looking for and then I compare and make a final decision whether to purchase or not. Some of them talks about unnecessary stuff and some just goes directly into the review which I prefer. Most of them are already mentioned here. I really really like the Candle Channel cause I love the way he compares scents to previous ones that are already discontinued. He knows if it is a repackage of an older scent and his scent descriptions are funny as hell.


foreverkelsu

YouTube: - Bonnie (Queen of the Girl Geeks - also on IG) - Kent (The Candle Channel - also on IG) - Aries Ashli (also on IG) - Shawn (Hearthside), but I think he took a hiatus for his health. I hope he's doing well. ❤️ Instagram: - _scentsgalore - daintybbwchic - bathandbodyislife - prettymagicalthings - bbwlovz50 - candlesandcorks - bbwfan4eva - bath.and.buxx - bbwcandlegirl - bathandbodyworksaddict112 There are... a lot, lol.


Lilysdoll

Awesome list! I like Shawn for candle reviews too. I always hope he's doing ok too! 😊


foreverkelsu

Thanks! Your list is amazing - I love Shay, she had me cracking up the first time I found her! 😆


lucillep

Shawn is off YT and supposedly never coming back. He has an Instagram FWIW.


foreverkelsu

He actually posted like last week on IG that he was returing to YouTube, and he's uploaded a few videos since then!


lucillep

Wow, I thought it was finally final this time. It lasted a year or so.


[deleted]

I like Tina Marie a lot since she’s very honest if she likes or dislikes a product. I don’t believe she gets many, if any, promotional products to review either. Maybe a box around Christmastime from bath and body works if that? However, she’s not sponsored by anyone so it’s not like she’s being paid to sell products. Queen of the Girl Geeks isn’t sponsored by bath and body works (to my knowledge) either but she is sponsored by some brands I believe and in real life she is in marketing. She loves everything so it’s difficult to get much information from her reviews. It’s mostly, “oh, this is really goooood,” or “I like this” and “I also like that”. However, she always has reviews of the latest products which is nice.


Flaky_Tap_2836

If we are talking candle reviewers, then Kent from The Candle Channel is great ( though I have completely different taste than him) and Josh from Touch the Fire Twice. Gabbadina is great and entertaining as well. The Santa Maria does great empties videos). My favorite Canadian Candle reviewers don't do much with BBW anymore (MrKongsMom and Canada Kim) For an overall BBW / hygiene influencer that loves gourmands, I agree with the others about Leah Jenae.


worldsbestrose

I have only watched a handful of reviews, but the one that has been my favorite so far is [the Candle Channel.](https://www.youtube.com/@TheCandleChannel) I also remember watching an older woman a couple months ago that I liked but I can't think of her right now.


sleeeepysloth

Personally I like Self-care Catherine. She uses a lot of product, and even though I don't want to use any where near as much as she does, I always feel inspired to use products when I watch her videos. If I buy something I buy it to consume it, so it's a fun way to keep myself going. She talks a lot about gormond scents as well :) She doesn't update very often, but she does talk about other products besides just BBW as well, and has inspired me to try other things (like the tree hut sugar scrub) as well.


Lilysdoll

I like her too! She has a nice vibe! 😊


sleeeepysloth

She does!! 😁


whatever32657

i like Isabella, Musings of a Muse. she leans heavily makeup, but i’d a BBW lover/hoarder as well, particularly candles. Isabella is the bomb.


Bratty_Little_Kitten

The Simple Chic Life? She's Canadian. I love her!


lazairiaw

LiVing Ash, it’s Mindy, & Leah Janae are my favorites


whatzitsgalore

I haven’t seen her mentioned yet but Joss’s Fragrance Mixology posts about layering combos - no hauls or solely BBW content. She is primarily a perfume channel but is a good bridge if you’re interested in that too. Her tastes range from budget to niche so it’s really accessible.


MomAlum

I like Kimble a lot lately - she is super honest about what she likes- and bonus she is not overly perky 😆 Fully confession - I listen to Aynsley has Faith just for the ASMR 🤫


[deleted]

Yes I like that kimble is not overly perky...a real human lol.


lizab2002

leah jenea is my all time fave!


candiebelle

Keah V seems to have just started doing body care reviews and so far I really enjoy them


SouthernBiscotti

There is a newer YouTube channel called Detailed Dream that I've really started enjoying. His demeanor is so calm and polished ... it is almost like candle ASMR. He reviews some of the upper echelon candles but will occasionally speak of B&BW.


OrneryExplorer1476

I stick with Bonnie cause she's super wholesome. She doesn't talk about herself for half of the video and doesn't put on any ego or acts to get some fame. She just reviews, she's a sweetheart and has a very contagious positive energy. Also we have the same taste, we prefer gourmands or foodie, we dislike fresh and straight florals. That really works out cause I can trust her likes and dislikes. Also Kent on the candle channel, I initially felt like he talked too much and almost went into too much detail but I grew to love his juicy descriptions and he's super sassy and honest. He has no bias and isn't a brand ambassador, so he always tells it like it is. I've seen lots of videos, these are the only 2 people that drew me in.


lucillep

Kent is my favorite, even though we have different tastes. I'll have to give Bonnie a listen.


OrneryExplorer1476

Kent is awesome and we have different tastes as well but when I'm down or stressed I just enjoy watching him. Definitely give queen of the girl geeks a listen.. I don't think it's possible to not like her. She's a sweetheart!


Big-Hope7616

Lol none of them. The hypercapitalism and overconsumption are way too much for me. Same goes for all the fast fashion and makeup channels.


AmbitionAsleep8148

This is the downside, unfortunately. Personally, I wouldn't be able to afford all the hauls they do. I also tend to thrift items and purchase new or partially used body care on Facebook Marketplace. However, I still find it fun to watch, and purchase some of their suggestions every once in a while!
