Bethany Mota

“The idea of uploading a video that the whole world had access to made me nervous.”

“I travel often, which can make maintaining a workout schedule a little difficult, but I try to make time for it whenever I can. Sometimes I wake up extra early so I can fit in a run or a bike ride, and other days I'll just blast music and jump around or watch a 30-minute exercise video.”

“I am excited to partner with Aeropostale for my very own collection. It was a great experience to be able to work with them. Not only did I get to design an entire fashion line, but I got to do it at a great price point with quality clothes, both of which are very important to me.”

“I always use dry shampoo, even if my hair isn't oily. It gives me so much texture and that bedhead vibe.”

“I've definitely learned that if you really want something, just go for it, no matter how much it scares you.”

“In the beginning of my YouTube channel, I feel like I was doing what everyone else was doing, and I kind of felt very pressured to fit in with everyone.”

“When I have a good pair of shoes, I wear them over and over. Whether it's nice sneakers or a cool pair of combat boots, splurge on a pair you love that you can wear over and over with totally different outfits.”

“Doing meet ups is one of my favorite things ever.”

“I go on Twitter and I ask my viewers, 'What would you like to see next season in my line?' or 'What are things you love to wear?' They're the ones wearing it, so I want to make sure it applies to them.”

“I love sunflowers. They're one of my favorite flowers.”

“YouTube videos, they're more personal and more real than a commercial on TV.”

“I don't just post a video and then get offline. After uploading, I love to respond to comments, tweets, and messages about the video.”

“YouTube can sometimes be really discouraging. When I first started doing it, I almost stopped doing it.”

“I'm all about building a relationship with viewers and getting to know them.”

“When I travel, I have to have blotting sheets. It's so much better to remove the oil than to cover it up because then your skin just looks cakey.”

“I don't want to do something unless it feels organic.”

“You all have the potential to be what you wanna be.”

“One day I was in the grocery store, and I saw raspberries, and I was like, 'Oh, I can make a lip stain out of that.'”

“I'm not normally very adventurous with food.”

“I always eat mac and cheese. That's what I'm known for, just very simple food: sandwiches, French fries, very unhealthy, but yeah that's what I eat.”
