Kristen: How do you consistently find clients/projects?
Amber: I go to places in the city and network like twice a week. With each project I do, people reach out to me wanting to do more collaborations. So it becomes a cycle.

Kristen: Best advice you have for upcoming makeup artist?
Amber: Get some friends and do their makeup. Make sure to get good photos and then start building a portfolio. Start networking and going to different events. The more you go out…the more people you’ll meet! Then you can start building a clientele. Also, wherever you go make sure your face looks best! A good face will impress people. That’s truly an important factor to makeup artistry.
