When Brandon Scott joined Mamamia's You Beauty podcast in October 2020, he arrived as one of the fresh faces reshaping how beauty content reaches audiences. The episode, titled 'The Top Beauty Tip From A TikTok Makeup Star,' gave listeners a direct line to the Australian makeup artist and digital content creator known online as @itsbybrandon.
Across the conversation, Brandon shared a set of practical makeup tips grounded in his work as an artist. He pointed listeners towards a glowy finish, made the case for investing in a good primer, and recommended applying sunscreen separately rather than relying on products that combine it with other steps. His advice on contour was equally hands-on. Rather than committing to a heavy line, he suggested building it up gradually, an approach that leaves room to adjust as the look comes together.
The appearance sat within a broader body of work built on transformational beauty looks and strong production values. Brandon worked as a professional makeup artist for around six years before gaining a large online following, and rose to prominence on TikTok in part through a viral #BarbieChallenge video. That combination of technical grounding and digital reach is what made a tips-focused podcast episode a natural fit.
By the time of the You Beauty appearance, Brandon had already established himself as a recognisable name in Australian beauty content. His work spans makeup transformations inspired by pop culture alongside the kind of everyday, wearable guidance he offered on the podcast. He has since worked on projects with major beauty brands including Mecca and Fenty, and appeared as a special guest at Fenty events.
The You Beauty episode captures Brandon doing what he does across his platforms. Taking the craft of makeup and making it accessible, one clear tip at a time.
