Murder, Mystery, and Makeup: Narratives by Bailey Sarian

The vlogger makes watching true crime as exciting as listening to gossip stories, making you laugh instead of cringing and averting your eyes and ears.

**How did the Murder, Mystery, and Makeup series start?**

Bailey Sarian was always fond of makeup and had previously worked for Sephora and Urban Decay. Sarian began her YouTube career in 2013 with traditional makeup tutorials. When she asked her subscribers if they would like her to discuss true crime in her videos, the response was highly encouraging. Thus, the Murder, Mystery, and Makeup series was born.

In one of her Q&A videos on YouTube, she shared a backstory about how her mother is a 9-1-1 dispatcher, occasionally taking little Bailey to her workplace.

We laugh about it now because it probably wasn’t the best idea to be taking a 10- or 11-year-old to sit in and listen to 9-1-1 calls, because no one’s calling 9-1-1 to report anything good.

The first case that captured Bailey’s attention was the notorious unsolved slaughtering of six-year-old pageant star JonBenét Ramsey, which happened in 1996 but occasionally still makes the news cycle. Sarian is so fixated on the investigation that she makes the joke that if she could ask God only one question before she passes away, it would be, “Who did it?”
