Flair For Fashion

She might have started off as a beauty queen, but Amanda Leong has come a long way since those pageant days. Amanda, who was first runner-up in the Miss Universe Singapore competition in 2011 when she was just 18, went on to clinch the titles of Miss Cosmopolitan International 2011, Miss Singapore Tourism International 2011, and Miss Asean 2013.

This kick-started her modelling career, and she later launched her first business in the beauty and cosmetics space, including importing false eyelashes to Singapore. But don’t for a second assume that she’s “all rainbows and no steel”. Amanda says she’s “a lot grittier” than what most people think.

She shares: “I have never allowed myself to stay comfortable. I’ve always been a firm believer that you will receive what you put out to the universe!” This philosophy is clear, as you can tell that she is not one to stay idle.

Amanda, who has a bachelor’s degree in Social Science with a major in Psychology and Corporate Communications from Singapore Management University, went on to work at a public relations firm before deciding to quit to take care of her children full-time.
