When she enrolled on high school, she had braces and glasses, which made other kids make fun of her. Because of her looks, Iolanda experienced bullying for 2 years.

Background and education of Iolanda Sweets

Like many other DIY channels, Iolanda began her journey by posting hack videos. Hacks are the ultimate trend because there's always an audience who loves to watch them.

Her most popular video contains 10 Back to School Hacks and has over 3,1 million views. Iolanda's only con is that her whole channel is in Italian, meaning that other nationalities don't understand most of it. But luckily, most of her content speaks for itself.
Like many other DIY channels, even Iolanda didn't resist the slime trend in 2016. She dedicated an entire series to slime-making videos and store-bought slime reviews. Her audience loves to watch her different review types of slime and sometimes create something from it. Iolanda's most popular series is dedicated to fidget toys because she likes to use them on a daily basis. Fidget toys are very popular amongst people suffering from ADHD but also other neurodivergent people. Iolanda's viewers enjoy the fact that she often chooses the ones that are the most colourful. Since slime and fidget toys provide easy content for short videos, Iolanda grew a big following on TikTok.
