Redefining Glamour by Amara

In a city where luxury and elegance are part of daily life, beauty has become more than appearance—it is artistry, storytelling, and empowerment. Few embody this spirit more than Amara, a British-born, Dubai-based international makeup artist who has redefined glamour for brides and clients across the globe.

A Global Journey in Beauty

With close to a decade of experience spanning the USA, Africa, China, and Europe, Amara has perfected her craft by blending cultural influences with modern techniques. Her artistry honors individuality while celebrating the diverse traditions of her clientele.

For the past ten years, Dubai has been both her home and stage. In the region’s most luxurious venues, she has become the artist of choice for destination brides—women who travel from every corner of the world to say “I do” against Dubai’s glittering backdrop.

“Dubai is a hub of global beauty and weddings,” Amara reflects. “I love working with women from all over the world. Every bride brings her own story, and my role is to enhance her natural beauty so she feels confident, radiant, and unforgettable.”

Mentorship and Signature Style

Amara’s artistry is rooted in world-class training and relentless self-mastery. She was mentored by celebrity makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, famously known as Kim Kardashian’s go-to makeup artist. Combined with years of self-teaching and experimentation, this guidance helped her develop a signature style defined by sculpted skin, luminous finishes, and eyes that captivate from ceremony to after-party.

Her Instagram, followed by nearly 55,000 beauty enthusiasts, showcases transformations that range from red-carpet glamour to timeless, romantic bridal looks. Each post reflects her dedication to detail, elegance, and storytelling through makeup.

From Artist to Educator

Beyond her work with clients, Amara has become a mentor for aspiring makeup artists. Through her masterclasses, she blends artistry with entrepreneurial insight, preparing the next generation not only to perfect techniques but also to build sustainable careers.

“Education is empowerment,” she says. “I want the next generation of makeup artists to find their style, voice, and confidence.”

Building a Beauty Legacy

Looking forward, Amara is channeling her expertise into her own beauty brand, inspired by years of working with brides and women of all backgrounds. “I want to create products that truly perform, that celebrate diversity, and that empower women to feel beautiful in their own skin,” she shares.

Her admiration for beauty mogul Huda Kattan of Huda Beauty fuels her entrepreneurial vision. “Huda’s journey inspires me endlessly. She built a global empire starting right here in Dubai, and I love using her products on my brides because they deliver performance and innovation.”

With a YouTube channel and podcast soon to launch, Amara is expanding her influence beyond makeup, opening conversations about beauty, confidence, and self-expression.

The Spirit of Dubai

In many ways, Amara mirrors the essence of Dubai itself: ambitious, diverse, and constantly evolving. From crafting unforgettable bridal transformations to mentoring artists and building her own beauty empire, she continues to prove that makeup is more than transformation—it is a celebration of identity, empowerment, and legacy.
