Pixiwoo are UK based, sibling duo Sam and Nic. They started on YouTube in 2008 when a heavily pregnant Sam wanted to do something to alleviate her boredom. Three years, 62 million views and 364,546 subscribers later they have become a global sensation. As well as earning a steady stream of revenue from their ad supported YouTube videos, they’ve partnered up with major cosmetics brand Avon to help educate their representatives about their products.

Brand Lauren continues to thrive, with the recent release of her Nintendo DS game and her own range of cosmetics.
