Attention Teens do You Subscribe to These YouTube Channels? ...

I love Michelle Phan for so many reasons! Her channel is certainly one of the best YouTube channels for teens, because not only does she produce easy-to-follow makeup tutorials, she also covers important topics. Her recent video "You Are More" shows how "not all labels are glamorous" by interviewing young people who have been bullied and harshly labeled by their peers. However, she makes sure to balance her serious videos with fun ones, like when her boyfriend does her makeup or she travels to Korea!

React videos are a great way to get informed on current issues in a fun, understandable way. This YouTube channel interviews kids and teens on current issues—some serious like gay marriage or interracial couples, some not so serious like new movie trailers. Either way, React is a great way to learn new things and begin forming your political and social opinions before you are eligible to vote.
