Why I Left

I wanted to share my side of the story to my viewers who has been supporting me since day 1. This video is dedicated to you. Thank you for all your support and inspiration you have given me during my 10 years on YT. I'll return when I'm inspired to share new ideas :)

The reason YouTube has a beauty community is this woman. I miss her.

[RosaCharice]

Michelle Phan is the mother of the beauty community. It all started with her.

[MichellePhan]

Reading all the comments. I'm smiling so much. Thank you everyone :)

[MashabaKabir]

Who else is here after her latest video? So glad she’s back!

[DoctorFashion]

sometimes i miss the old youtube .. when it was just a platform to upload whatever before money got involved

[kurlykayla]

Michelle, I took your videos for granted. You were straight to the point, creative, and drama-free. The beauty community of today is toxic.

i’m kind of glad michelle left this toxic beauty community behind.

she’s the only ONE who doesn’t care about the fame, she only cared about herself.

she’s the REAL mother of the beauty community.

God has 3 answers:
Yes.
Not yet.
And there’s something better.

We need you now more than ever, Michelle...

"Foundation. Powder. Highlight. Setting Spray. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when the Drama Channels attacked. Only Michelle, master of all four elements, could stop them, but when the world needed her most, she vanished. A hundred years have passed and the Drama Channels are nearing victory in the War. Some people believe that Michelle Phan will never upload again onto YouTube, and that the cycle is broken. But I haven't lost hope. I still believe that somehow, Michelle will return to save the beauty community."

I hope she's found peace and is creating her own happiness.

THE QUEEN 🙌🏻👑 I am so beyond proud of you!

[ESNYC]

You got out before it really became toxic

[cassiaagy]

I’m not annoyed that she left. All of this stress and anxiety that she talks about would have only gotten worse. Nowadays everyone posts the same content because it sells. She put her mental health first, good for her x

This girl needs to be a voice reader for audio books! Her voice is so relaxing

[safiya]

this video is beautiful! i'm glad ur in a better place now, michelle! ❤️ can't wait to see what's next!!

[izufreckles]

*she started the whole beauty community and she was also the first one to realize how toxic it was after years of being in it*

[jokenzie]

Maybe instead of begging Michelle to return, (I’d love it as much as anyone bc I miss her) maybe we should just try to follow in her footsteps and become a newer, drama free & uplifting YouTube community. She was everything we should aspire to be. 💞

Who’s here during the James and Tati drama?
Wanted to remind myself of the old beauty of YouTube


Edit: thank you so much for all the likes! Glad to know I’m not the only one out there feeling the same xo
