Pretty in Pink: "The hot pink [lip gloss] that I always wear is literally from a beauty supply store. It’s $1.99 and I’ve been wearing it since the 7th grade! It’s amazing. I can’t even believe it’s that cheap. I think that big companies use small companies like that and just put a brand name on it because the lip gloss is thick and it’s good quality."
Amber's Lip Line: "My own lip gloss line is in the works. Hopefully it will be really dope because I know there are a lot of girls out there that love my hot pink lip gloss. It’s going to be all loud, bright, fluorescent colors, because that’s like my whole thing."
Buzzed Babe: "My hair color is 50 volume developer and a pack of hair bleach. I have to cut and dye my hair every three to four days. This haircut is new to all of my fans and people that just met me, but I’ve actually had this haircut for six years. This is routine for me and I do it myself."
"...When my hair grows out, it’s thick and big and heavy and curly. When I have a baby I’m going to let it grow out. I’m actually working on my high top fade right now. I’m growing out the top and I’m going to straighten it out."
Amber's 5-min FaceUsually, I wear YSL mascara and foundation. I also wear MAC cream blush. I like to be very luminous and I know sometimes in pictures I look really, really shiny. But that’s okay. I just see so many girls that just look like a powder puff in the face. I just like to look luminous and fresh.
"....I use Clinique Mild Facial Soap. I very rarely get any pimples or bumps. My moisturizer is raw shea butter. I’m West African and my whole family uses that. Put it in the microwave and it turns into a really great oil. I put it all over my body."
Wind & Grind: "I’ll hit the gym when I want to do weights. But for the most part, I like to work out in my house and I like to dance. Just put on some reggae and wind your hips. Go down to the floor, come back up. Just sexy dancing. It’s really good for your legs. Just put on whatever your favorite music is and just wild out in the house and get it in. The gym is boring."
Fashionista: "I like Nuka. Of course, Louis Vuitton. I just like anything that looks dope. It doesn’t have to be a name brand because I’m not really a fashion whore like that even though it seems like I am. Seriously, I’ll wear a dress from the thrift store that’s $2 if it’s dope. It’s all about being dope and being creative."
"....Growing up really poor, I had to shop at the thrift store and I had to wear my cousin’s hand-me-downs. I would just put stuff together and make it my own."
"....I love Giuseppes because the fit is just perfect. He’s one of my favorites. I love YSL. I love Alexander McQueen. God rest his soul. I’m a girl! I love shoes!"
"...If I have on shorts or a skirt, I have on heels. If I have on pants, I have on Jordans or Timbs. I’m a South Philly girl, babe."
If I Were a Boy: "When I dress up like a boy and I have my little tomboy pretty boy swag – basically, if you wear a bright lip, it automatically has the boys looking at you like, ‘Oh, she looks cute with her little boy outfit on.’ But if you’re very plain-faced with a fitted, then it’s not going to work out for you."
Rose-Colored Glasses: "My friend teases me and tells me that I sleep in them [sunglasses]. But I really don’t sleep in them. I have baby pictures of me with sunglasses on and it’s just always been my sh*t. I guess they just make me feel protected and safe. I’m kind of like very much “to myself,” although I’m still very personable."
Diamond Diva: "I wear my diamond studs and I’m very simple when it comes to jewelry, especially necklaces. I’ll wear a long one, but I won’t wear a short one because I have a really long neck and it doesn’t look right. I like to just leave it bare."
Amber's Top Tip: I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again. If you have to run out and you don’t have time to do your eye makeup, throw on a pair of shades and you’ll always look fly.
