Insta, TikTok, YouTube: Road to Social Media Queen

FIV: Hey Alina! Se’re so glad you took the time to talk to us today about yourself and do an interview with us. Tik Tok, YouTube and over a million followers on Instagram – you could say you’re a true social media queen. It must have taken a lot of work and patience to get there. When did you realize: Yes, I made it?

Alina: To be honest, I don’t really realize it until today. Now and then when people talk to me, or when I held my first award in my hand, I become aware of it. These are events that I will never forget!

FIV: You are 18, your Tik Tok career started during school. How did your classmates and teachers react when the success came? Do your teachers sometimes look at your channel?

Alina: It wasn’t always pleasant for me at school! Many smiled at me, called me things and the teachers weren’t always nice to me either! But hey, it just made me more self-confident and steadfast!

FIV: School and Tik Tok – Full Time Jobs. Followers waiting for new posts on Tik Tok and Instagram every day. How did you actually balance your life as a star and a student?

Alina: Well, my graduation is now 1 1/5 years ago and I have since started my own business! At that time it was definitely stressful to take care of my ‘online life’ after school. But luckily I had plenty of support from my mom!

Hard work, determination & close friends

FIV: With a total of 4 million followers on Tik Tok and Instagram, you are already a real social media expert. Many young people are totally inspired by you and are encouraged by you to also work on their own Instagram or Tik Tok account. That’s why we’re asking: What is THE starter package to get started in social media?

Alina: The most important thing is to stay yourself! There are so many different content creators nowadays, so it’s hard to assert yourself, but if you’re determined, work hard and believe in your goal, it will work out!

FIV: The social media world is getting bigger and bigger and consists of many different characters. Which interesting people have you met while working as a social media star? And where would you say real friendships have developed?

Alina: You do get to know a lot of people, but rather fleetingly and unfortunately only rather superficially! However, I have also met many people who I have taken to my heart and who are now very close friends: Ana Kohler, Leoobalys or Marie Sophie. There are so many lovely people and I am grateful to know them!

Christmas Greetings: Alina’s Jewelry Advent Calendar!

FIV: We came across your collaboration with Ana Lisa Kohler. You two collaborated on a design for an advent calendar. Not every Tik Tok star gets the cool chance to have their own Christmas calendar. What was it like designing your own advent calendar?

Alina: It came as a total surprise, but I’m very happy! It was definitely fun and I’m proud that it turned out so cool.

FIV: As a child, we all had an Advent calendar with chocolate and Christmas motifs printed on it. Was it strange when you saw your face on the advent calendar for the first time?

Alina: YEAH, full! It was totally unusual, but also a very great feeling. Especially with such projects and of course with my community you realize that it was really worth it to never give up!)

FIV: Rings, necklaces and bracelets – your advent calendar offers great pieces of jewellery. You often wear jewelry in your posts, too. What is your favorite piece from the advent calendar or your favorite piece of jewelry?

Alina: I appreciate the necklace with the star! It’s simple, but also so cute!

Own jewellery collection and move to Cologne!

FIV: And one more little question: What are your plans/goals for your professional future? Is there anything coming up in the near future? Will there be something special in our news feed in the near future?

Alina: Well, of course I try to keep going and work on myself every day to get better. I will also move into my first own apartment in Cologne next year and I am already very excited! I’m also planning a lot of new projects right now, like my own jewelry collection that’s coming out soon. And I’ve been working on a really big project for a while now, a project of the heart that I hope to be able to tell you more about soon.

FIV: Thank you very much for the interview, it was a pleasure to learn more about you. FIV Magazine and I wish you all the best for your future and continued success.

Father, mother, child: Schiffner family

The beautiful YouTuberin was born on 28 April 2001 in Austria, where she lives with her younger brother Noah, her much younger sister Emilia Sophie and her parents (Andrea Schiffner and Christian Gruber). It is not only Lisa-Marie who shares many of the contents of her life with the public. Her parents and brother also have Instagram accounts.

Sister Emilia Sophie

The mere sight of sweet babies makes hearts beat faster. Lisa-Marie makes no secret of her younger sister Emilia Sophie. Even on the contrary: The YouTuberin posts many photos and videos and thus expresses her sibling love. This is done, for example, as in the following video about a re-styling of her sister, which was particularly well received by her fan community with 600 thousand clicks, including 36 thousand Likes.

In love thanks to music: All about her boyfriend

Last year the single “Kaltes Wasser” by YouTuber and musician Moritz Garth was released. In the music video to the song Lisa-Marie got the opportunity to act at Moritz’ side. And from the first scene it was all about her. The sympathy was right from the first moment on and she immediately fell in love with the 23-year-old. Moritz didn’t need a long time to remember either and the two quickly became a couple. They regularly share their love happiness with their fans.

Fevered because of acne

Believe it or not, about three years ago, Lisa-Marie suffered from acne. Every look in the mirror caused a burst of tears. She felt very uncomfortable in her skin and nasty mobbing actions of her classmates made Lisa-Marie ashamed of her appearance. Self-confidence? At that time she was still a long way from that.

life change after common harassment actions

But Lisa-Marie couldn’t be kept down. She quickly realizes that she must first love herself before others can. She learned to get up, not to let herself get down because of some skin blemishes. The then 14-year-old used a few tips and tricks and her skin improved bit by bit. She also pursued her hobbies and posted photos and videos of herself. Her fans supported her and a new phase in her life could begin.

Lisa-Maries Message

Influencerin only became as strong as it is today because it could learn from its past. Now she obviously feels comfortable in her skin and loves her life. She wants to be a role model for her followers and help everyone with a similar fate to love themselves and make the most of their lives.

Lisa-Marie let your hair down

A special feature of the 17-year-old Austrian is her full and long hair. The secret recipe for such a splendour of hair is: a lot of care, patience and good genes. The influencer is happy to pass on her styling tips. No matter if your hair resembles Lisa-Marie’s or not, if you are interested you can try to style her look.

As YouTuberin on Germany’s Next Topmodel ?

Young, pretty and enthusiastic about make-up and fashion, you have to apply for the casting show Germany’s Next Topmodel (GNTM)! Many think so and not only ask themselves this question, but also Lisa-Marie herself whether she would not be interested in it. The pretty Austrian was not yet a participant of the show but she would be fundamentally interested in it. Since she is a very spontaneous person, she does not exclude the possibility of applying for the upcoming season.

Payton Private: Friends, Instagram, and Hater Comments

FIV: Hey Payton, you’re still very young (recently turned 18). Early on, you’ve been sharing your life on social media like Instagram. You take your subscribers on trips and introduce them to your girlfriends. How do you feel about life in public and what kind of person are you in private? Describe yourself in three words.

Payton: Well I think living in public is cool because I like to share my experiences with other people. My friends would describe me as : Open, ready for new things, full of life !

FIV: You’re still in school. When it all started with you on Instagram, you were certainly the number one topic of conversation in the schoolyard. These are usually not only positive comments, but also derogatory “hater comments”. Have you had many experiences in this direction and how do you deal with inappropriate criticism? Do you take it very much to heart?

Payton: Yes, my social media is still an issue at my school even though I’ve been doing it for over 1 year now. Hater comments are not something I take to heart.

School stress meets social media!

FIV: Besides school, you try to upload pictures on Instagram regularly. Isn’t it stressful to balance school and your job as an influencer? Do you even see Instagram as your job?

Payton: I see Instagram more as my hobby than my job, although you could call it a job as well. Sure, it’s not always easy to juggle everything, but with a good schedule, it works.

FIV: Following your account, it’s clear that you love fashion. Your style varies from sporty looks to chic outfits. Can you tell us if you have any fashion must-haves and if so, what are they and why does every woman need to have them in her wardrobe?

Payton: Don’t really have a fashion must-have except maybe basic black pants because they go with everything.

FIV: Recently you told me that you were at Glow in Berlin this year. I’m sure you got some beauty tips from the pros there. Do you have any insider tips for my readers against dry skin in winter and what are your top 3 beauty essentials without which you would never survive the winter?

Payton: The only thing that helps with dry skin is simply taking good care of it and always putting lotion on it. My top 3 beauty essentials:

• Labello
• Hand cream
• Body lotion

Styling tip: Never combine pink and red – fashion sin!

FIV: You certainly have to deal with a lot of people from the fashion industry. This year, for example, you were at Stylorama in Dortmund. Among all these people you often notice outfit combinations that you don’t like at all. Explain which colors you should never combine with each other and what is the biggest fashion sin of 2017 for you?

Payton: You should never combine the colors pink and red. I don’t think that works at all.

FIV: Your first post on Instagram was not so long ago (May 12, 2016). In that year and a half, a lot has happened on your account and certainly in your everyday life. Which person has inspired you the most along the way and which place has impressed you the most?

Payton: Since I started using Instagram, I’ve been inspired by a lot of people. America in general has impressed me the most.

FIV: You now have 114,000 subscribers on Instagram. Did your success come overnight or was it more of an ongoing process?

Payton: My “success” on Instagram came very suddenly at the beginning and was not planned that way. But I am very happy how it all came.
