Mota created her YouTube account in 2009 when she as 14. Her first video was a haul video titled "First Video :) Mac and Sephora Haul."

Mota's goal for her channel was to help young girls feel confident in themselves and feel good about themselves. Despite her channel being about makeup, Bethany wants everyone to know that they're beautiful no matter what.

Bethany's main focus is her shopping haul and outfit showcase videos. She also creates videos on hair and makeup tutorials, DIY crafts and guides on interior decoration.

Mota has been featured in magazines including Girls Life and Seventeen Magazine. She also had a joint clothing, perfume and accessories line with Aeropostale, beginning in 2013.

She has partnered with J. C. Penney and Forever 21, and, in December 2013, she launched a clothing, perfume, and accessories line at Aéropostale, over which she retains creative control. She maintains a close relationship with her fans and incorporates their ideas into her fashion design. Teen Vogue called her style "laid-back-but-girly". New announcements are made first to her social media accounts, which Aéropostale credits with increasing interest among teenage girls.

She has released a single, "Need You Right Now," with Mike Tompkins, which debuted at number thirty in the Danish top 40 record chart. She has also written her own song, "Be Who You Wanna Be."

She has written a memoir, "Make Your Mind Up: My Guide to Finding Your Own Style, Life, and Motavation!"
