Get it welcomes Amanda Ramsay

Meet Queensland’s make-up artist of 2018, now featuring in Get it and on a mission to make YOU feel damn fabulous!

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the sheer breadth of products, tips, tricks, rules and demands spread in front of you, all promising to make you look and feel ‘more beautiful’? With millions of items marketed each year around the globe, and billions spent on advertising so these products are in your face (rather than effectively ‘on’ it), it is a huge challenge for busy women to know where to start. I’m a working mum, I get it!

I’ve loved this business for as long as I can remember, and my passion grows as I do. You’ll spot on my site (amandaramsay.com.au) that I proudly highlight my mission: I help women over 40 feel damn fabulous about themselves
using genuine insider beauty know-how.

Beauty isn’t about youth, although I know the industry is skewed that way. I believe the term ‘anti-ageing’ should be removed from our vernacular. Ageing is a privilege, not a disease. When you look good you feel good, and this is proven all throughout life.

Recognition as 2018 Queensland Makeup Artist of the Year, and a 2019 Gold Coast Women of the Year Award finalist has meant I’ve been able to broaden my reach. I’ve had the chance to meet more of you, and to share secrets of accessible beauty, products and routines that work for your budget and lifestyle.

Keep an eye out for a new topic each month in Get it. Drop us a line on social media and share your biggest beauty challenge. Let’s work together to get it solved.
