The story so far
I started doing friends' matric-dance makeup on a kitchen table in 2013. Ten years, three hundred faces and one international certification later, Blush by Amber is a Baker Street studio with a kit that travels across Gauteng most weekends.
My background is bridal first, editorial second - which means I care equally about how your makeup looks at 06:00 in your mom's lounge and how it reads under studio strobes at midnight. Every formula in my kit earns its place by surviving real South African weather and real South African tears of joy.
When I am not brushing, I am teaching - one-on-one lessons are my favourite way to spend a Tuesday. Nothing beats watching someone finally get along with their own makeup bag.
