If you’ve ever thought, “I need a rich mom alter ego in my life,” Amanda McCants is here to deliver—one hilarious skit at a time. As a beauty girl who’s been performing since she was two years old (for real!), McCants has been creating viral sketches like “Westlake Village Mom” and “Montecito Mom” for the last four years. But trust us, her sense of humor is just as sharp as her flawless eye makeup.

Key Takeaways: Amanda McCants’ Hilarious Beauty Journey 

  • Comedy Meets Beauty: McCants has been creating her digital videos for years, and the process has made her a master of both comedy and makeup. If her makeup’s off, she’ll notice—and fix it (Scorpio energy at its finest).

  • The “Just Be Hot” Philosophy: McCants’ life motto is simple: Just be hot. It’s not just about looks—it’s a whole mindset. And yes, we did get her a Le Labo Santal candle with that saying on it.

  • Rich Mom Energy: McCants’ Rich Moms series is iconic. She meticulously researches each town, travels to meet real-life housewives, and ensures that her hair and makeup are always flawless. Because being a rich mom with bad makeup? Unacceptable.
