Nicole Skyes

Nicole was born on January 27, 1993 in the United States. Nicole was not even a year old when her parents got divorced. She has a half-sister from her father’s second marriage. Nicole’s childhood was a troubled one. She had to struggle to even express her feelings as she had no one to talk to. It is because of this that she chose YouTube, a platform to speak her heart out. In 2015, she took residence in San Francisco, California. In 2017, she moved from California to Florida.

Nicole created her first YouTube channel in 2007, but she only started posting videos from 2015. Since then, she has posted around 220 videos. Most of her videos are related to make-up tutorials and hacks. She also posts quirky challenge videos, DIYs, and videos on her boyfriend, sister and her pets.

The first video that Nicole posted on her channel was about her first piercing. The video was titled as ‘Getting my vertical labret pierced’. Nicole’s make-up tutorials are not ideal for someone who would want to dress up for a party or for their everyday chores. Her make-up tutorials are often themed and they aim at creating a particular look. Some of her popular make-up videos include ‘Easy Cracked Doll Makeup Tutorial’ and ‘Pop Art Zombie Makeup Tutorial’.

When her fans requested her to teach them the techniques of Contouring in a simple way, Nicole responded by uploading her video, ‘Contouring makeup with tape’. In the video, she came up with a technique that made even the toughest step look like a cake walk. She also posted a video, in which she taught her viewers a simple trick to do the perfect winged eyeliner.

Nicole loves to experiment with her hair and also loves coloring her hair. She made numerous videos on haircare routines and videos on how to color hair naturally. Nicole’s fans started requesting her to post videos that would help them to get Kylie Jenner like lips and she was happy to oblige. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDKaRcS4NcY

Nicole is an artist and loves playing with colors. Unlike professional painters, her face is her canvas and makeup products are her colors. She even made a video in which she created a 3D spider which looked as good as real.

Nicole has another YouTube channel titled ‘Nicole Skyes Vlogs’ where she posts her vlogs, chats, Q&A’s and Story Time videos. In one of her Story Time videos, she shared her experience of getting physically assaulted by a homeless man when she was just 14 years old. She even posted a video in which she was seen spending her entire day with her half-sister and her stepmother. It was a special video as she had met them after a period of 11 years!

Nicole is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Jay, with whom she was in a live-in relationship for six long years. The couple can be seen in many of Nicole’s videos. One such video was ‘Boyfriend Tag’ in which she spoke about her love story.

Nicole and Jay started dating in 2010 after meeting each other at a concert. Jay owned an apparel boutique and Nicole eventually became his frequent customer. They both were on friendly terms and that encouraged Jay to take the first step forward. They soon started dating and realized that they shared many interests. Nicole has posted her first date story on her Instagram account. After years of being in a live-in relationship, they got engaged in 2011.
