But Jordan began her journey on YouTube and in 2024, things are only looking up; hence making it a no brainer for her to be added to our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 to look out for. If full glam is what you’re after, Jordan’s your girl. Not to mention she has incredible selling power due to just how many of her 1.87M subscribers look up to her for product recommendations and makeup tips and tricks.

With K-Beauty quickly gaining traction in the West, Edward and his army of 1.55M subscribers would be of much help to brands looking to ease their way into this new world.

@graces.faces_ silently review my makeup with me<3 ib @DAISY LOUISA
After launching her viral cleansing balm with The Beauty Crop, Grace’s face(s) has been circulating TikTok for a hot minute, luring in both followers and brands alike. Along with her selling power, Grace is one of TikTok’s beauty influencers best known for their acne-friendly makeup tutorials and does a great job of teaching her followers how to embrace the skin they’re in while still remembering that they are worthy of a space in the beauty industry despite not fitting the “norm”. Due to this, there is no doubt that Grace deserves a spot on our top beauty influencers in 2024 list.
Chloe Roberts
@chloelouiseroberts
As a self-confessed makeup fiend, Chloe takes up the next spot on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 to look out for. After achieving virality from her take on the Labrinth transformation trend, Chloe has stuck to her glam roots by regularly publishing night out GRWMs and bold glamour looks. With several notable brand collaborations under her belt in 2023, we predict these will only multiply as we enter the new year.
Bennet Northen

Amaya Crichton
@amayacrichton Loved this makeup look? #softmakeup #makeuplook
We’re aware there have been many full glam additions to our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 we predict will take over, so this one’s for the minimal makeup lovers. Amaya has nailed the “no makeup” makeup look and is here to teach her followers how to do exactly the same. Using soft blushes, barely-there concealer and highlight in all the right places, Amaya allows her natural beauty to shine through. With the beauty industry favouring minimal makeup lately, leveraging her expertise is a great way for brands to break into the space in the new year.

Embracing her acne-prone skin, Quetta is a shining example of just how diverse the beauty industry can really be if we celebrate influencers based on their skills too. On Quetta’s channel you can expect to see many colourful eyeshadow looks, as well as all the tips and tricks on how to apply makeup over acne-prone skin without irritating it.

Providing us with a range of makeup looks, from bleached brows to timeless glamour, there isn’t much Yvonne hasn’t yet covered, making her the perfect influencer to collaborate with in the new year.
Mei Pang
We’ve met TikTok’s most creative MUA, now let’s meet Instagram’s. Mei Pang, better known as @meicrosoft, is a force to be reckoned with within the beauty industry, mixing her background in art with her love for makeup to create constant show-stopping looks. From using flowers to create shapes to freehand painting masterpieces on her own face, there isn’t much Mei cannot do. We are in constant awe of everything she continues to surprise us with and, for that, she rightfully deserves one of the top spots on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 we predict will change the beauty industry.
Samantha Harvey
Sam didn’t choose the soft glam life, the soft glam life chose Sam. Incorporating wispy lashes, brown eyeliners and subtle pops of blush into her everyday makeup routines, expect to find tutorials on how to enhance your features, how to create faux freckles and an overall homage to the clean girl aesthetic. We’re not sure about you, but just one scroll through Sam’s Instagram account and we’re motivated to get our practice in, that alone is worthy of a spot on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 to look out for.
Alice Dickson
If it’s winged eyeliner you’re looking to perfect, look no further. Alice is best known for her thick and pointy winged eyeliner looks along with the Barbie-pink aesthetic that encompasses her Instagram account. After partnering with the likes of Sheglam and Real Techniques in 2023, we predict these collaborations will only grow larger for Alice in the new year, earning her a spot on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 to keep an eye out for.
Jenna
For those of you still unfamiliar with Jenna’s work, you won’t be for much longer. Hailed as the queen of Halloween, thanks to her 31 days of Halloween makeup looks, Jenna has the creative makeup niche down to a T and her 101K followers seem to think so too. On her page you can expect to find themed beauty and lifestyle content that corresponds with her chosen hair colour for that season. Her creativity and Feed aesthetics aren’t to be overlooked by the beauty industry in the new year and so we’re adding Jenna to our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 who will shake the industry up.
Twinkle Makeup
Coming in hot with yet another K-beauty influencer, Twinkle Makeup is a South Korean makeup artist circulating the model scene. Alongside being a highly-sought-after freelance MUA, she publishes makeup and haircare content to her Instagram page, which has led to her gaining 302K followers. As an MUA, expect to find lots of tips and tricks for perfecting makeup looks, as well as images of the models whose faces she’s painted. With such inspirational and beautiful content being consistently pumped out, we think she deserves a top spot on our list.
Snitchery
When we think of the beauty industry, we tend to forget that makeup looks can come in all shapes and forms, with one of the most popular being cosplay makeup. Eleanor, AKA Snitchery, has taken over Instagram with her kooky takes on beloved characters, incorporating impressive makeup looks into each and every one. With 1.3M followers, we don’t doubt she is looked up to by many users and brands; that which we hope to see continue in the new year. Just based on her creativity and imagination alone, we’re delighted to be adding Snitchery to our long list of top beauty influencers in 2024!
Uche Natori
We must admit, there isn’t any other beauty influencer on Instagram who can achieve as flawless a base as Uche can. Known for her sorcery with complexion products, Uche’s page is brimming with makeup tutorials and glamour. Found working with the likes of Charlotte Tilbury, Topicals and Fenty Beauty regularly in 2023, we’re certain her list of collaborations will only grow in the coming year. As a true beauty influencer and pioneer within the industry, Uche is well-deserving of a spot on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 who we expect to shake things up.
Ellis Atlantis
Last, but certainly not least, taking up the final spot on our list of the top beauty influencers in 2024 to look out for is Ellis. Think drag makeup fuelled by sheer artistic talent. Like many others on our list, there isn’t much Ellis can’t do and his Instagram page is testament to this. From club kid to timeless glamour, Ellis covers everything on the spectrum and brands such as Beauty Bay and Juvias Place leverage this to achieve brand success. Even if you’re a minimal makeup lover, Ellis’ page is well worth a follow just for the beauty of his looks.
