Rei Germar is one of those pretty, thin, young and rich girls we see a lot on Instagram. But we sat down with the 23-year-old, who has over 1 million subscribers on YouTube and over 700,000 on Instagram, and came out with a different impression.

As Rei tells it, she created a YouTubechannel because she likes talking to people about her day.

Im very passionate about sharing thingswhen I come home from school, Im so excited to tell my mom how my day went.Ive been watching YouTube since I was in high school and I loved IshaBorromeo, Kris Lumagui and Anna Cano. I thought I could have my own channel andshare with people my love for shopping, my love for makeup and, eventually,lifestyle and travel.

Reis journey from aspirant to YouTubesuperstar hasnt been difficult, she acknowledges. This gratefulness is onething I noticed about this girl. Im so used to seeing jaded 20-year-olds thatit is refreshing to see someone talk about what she does with passion.

I was actually overwhelmed that I alreadyhadif my memory serves me right100,000 followers after a year. I didntexpect it.

She sees YouTube as a platform for her toshare things about herself and inspire people. Of course, with the fame camethe haters and bashers. Once again, Reis attitude about this impressed me.

I realized that no matter what you do, theywill have something to say about you.At first I would reply, but Idont anymore. I realized that as long as I dont step on other people, walana, dedma na [I dont mind it]. Mental health is veryimportant. I dont think I could keep on doing this if I wasnt in the rightmindset. I need to protect my mental health.

Rei doesnt mind attacks on her physicalappearance, or on her being privileged (example: All you do is shop). Whatshe objects to is when people assume things about her and put words into hermouth. One of the things Rei loves about being a content creator and onlinepersonality is being able to connect with people.

Its being actually able to inspire people.In the beginning, messages like You inspire me didnt really affect me. Itwas when I started knowing their stories and getting messages that they wantedto give up but watching my videos made them feel like they could go on. Thiswas what made me realize that I had a purpose. Thats when I started beingvocal about my advocacies. I want them to fall in love with themselves. I knowthat it is not easy but I am hoping that in my own way, I can help.

We talked to Rei during a shoot for Pandoraslatest campaign, for which she is one of the muses. There is a pink wallemblazoned with the question What Do You Love?

The centerpiece of the campaign is thePandora O pendant, which takes on charms just like the bracelet did, but can beworn in a variety of different ways. Pandora is banking on muses like Rei tointroduce the brand to new kinds of customers.

Rei wears her O pendant with three charmsthat include a leaf, which to her represents a family tree.

Im very close to my family. When I am withthem, I try not to be on social media because theyre really not into it, saidRei, who is the third of four siblings.

The other muses of the campaign are Bettina Jose, Janina Manipol, Christiana Collings, Kaila Estrada, Jess Connelly, Valerie Chua, DJ Kat, Issa Pressman, Janeena Chan, Aryanna Epperson and Gabs Gibbs.
