Ever wondered what it\u2019s like to be a YouTuber ? One of those Internet sweethearts, followed by thousands of keen viewers, ready to pounce on the next thing rolling off the tip of your tongue ? Well, today, Jessica L’Esp\u00e9rance<\/strong> is among us to tell the tale. And, contrary to most worldwide wannabes, she\u2019s surprisingly fresh, real & down to earth.<\/p>\n

Wide-eyed Jess steps into our office with a light bounce, a bright smile and spring-like scents trailing behind her. So, what do I find out within minutes ? She\u2019s not just the blog & vlogger some of us have come to know, but also a relatable sweetheart with an unapologetic point of view.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn my videos, I talk about the things that interest me. And, because I work in a pharmacy, I also know my beauty products. But what I love most is skincare. So far, my favorite brands are Clarins and Biotherm.<\/em>\u201d<\/h5>\n

OK, so the girl has me re-thinking anyone I\u2019ve ever asked for advice in Isle 1, now wishing she\u2019d been around to lend a helping hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I would never endorse a product I don\u2019t like or that doesn\u2019t work.<\/em>\u201d<\/h5>\n

And her fans would expect no less. Not a bullshitter, nor a princess, she offers to help me move a few tables out of the way to take pictures. She casually tells me that she would love to turn YouTubbing (if that\u2019s even a verb) into a full-time job. Far from being a 9-5 girl, Jess tells me that she\u2019d prefer to jump on contracts here and there. And all the better, since she\u2019s in the right niche to do so, having recently busted into fashion blogging, as well. There\u2019s no doubt like-minded brands will be eager to pair up with her accessible flare. A big fan of neutral tones, Jess loves all that is comfortable & slouchy – with a grungy edge.<\/p>\n

What you might not know though, is that her videos are just a hobby : something she does on the side. She might be three years in, with 13,800 YouTube followers, but don\u2019t be fooled, she\u2019s just your average lady on the work grind, going to uni and just trying to make it happen, one step at a time.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s something people might not know about you and what you do ? I ask.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s definitely pressure to follow through, because most people think I do this full-time\u2026 and I don\u2019t want to disappoint anyone. But it\u2019s important that I keep being myself and doing things the way I see fit. And school is definitely my priority.<\/em>\u201d<\/h5>\n

Her favorite video so far ? She can\u2019t seem to pinpoint just one, but Jess lights up mentioning her \u201cbo\u00eete \u00e0 souvenir\u201d formula \u2013 where she discusses childhood memories on cam to share with viewers :<\/p>\n
