Nygaard is an outlier among the YouTube beauty community because she has a prestigious academic background. As Cheat Sheet notes, Nygaard graduated from Stanford University, with Pop Sugar confirming she studied Drama and English. As a result, the savvy creator makes videos on all kinds of topics including the history of various makeup products, chokers, and dresses, fashion from years past, and even the efficacy of different menstrual products.
Nygaard is fearless and 100 percent confident in her vision, which was honed over her years at Buzzfeed. As Cheat Sheet reports, the ambitious young upstart actually joined YouTube back in 2011 but her following didn't move much until Nygaard left Buzzfeed in 2017 (these days, she's got over 9 million subs). Naturally, her first videos were all centered around her departure from the company which, as per Variety, had to do with simply not seeing eye to eye with them anymore and wanting to branch out alone.
