The list features 30 influencers, selected for their capacity to shape what Marie Claire calls “a rapidly changing and increasingly uncertain world”. Judges looked out for those who act as a voice to represent like-minded women, shaping the thoughts, behaviour, and lives of society. Both micro-influencers and more prominent figures are represented on the list, with Marie Claire recognising the work of the former in starting conversations and the ability of the latter to propagate these messages alike.

Hannah Witton was chosen for her “brutally honest sex vlogs”, where she guides her young audience through educational topics not usually discussed in schools.
Another notable YouTuber on the list is Louise Pentland, whose blogs on the highs and lows of motherhood, and her work as an ambassador for the UN campaigning for gender equality, impressed the Marie Claire judges.
