Personal Life
Bethany was born on November 7th, 1995 in Los Banos, California. She was homeschooled most of her life alongside her sister, Brittany, whom is five years older than her. Growing up, Mota was bullied and soon began struggling with depression and anxiety. She decided to get out of bed one day and watch some YouTube videos, thus her finding the beauty community. She stacked some books (she didn't have a tripod at the time) and began to record her first video. She gained popularity from her hauls and makeup tutorials. Her channel now has over 8 million subscribers as of March 2015.
