My Skin Journey
Skin, beauty, wellness, and health have taken on many different meanings throughout my life, and it’s an ever-evolving journey.
As a teen, I struggled with acne, and my face became the canvas for countless skin, makeup, and beauty trends (thanks, YouTube!). But this challenging experience sparked a deep passion that led me to a lifelong journey of education, self-acceptance, and redefining what beauty truly means to me.
As an adult, my skin has continued to face challenges—whether it was the effects of coming off the pill or the ongoing impact of stress, diet, and sleep. I’ve learned how to manage these ups and downs, and now I’m here to share what I’ve learned.
In a world flooded with TikTok trends and endless beauty products, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn. My hope is to help guide you through that noise and offer genuine, personalised advice that truly works. At 29 I know there is so much change yet to come for me as it will for all of us lucky enough to age. My goal for myself and you is not perfection, its healthy, happy skin you can feel confident in at ever phase of life.
Education & Experience
With over 7 years of hands-on experience in the skin and beauty industry, I have had the privilege of learning from both my peers and industry experts. The beauty and skincare landscape is ever-evolving, and with it, my passion for learning and deepening my knowledge grows. I may not know everything, but I have gained a wealth of expertise and am always committed to finding the best solutions for my clients.
Throughout my career, I've expanded my approach beyond traditional treatments, moving toward a more holistic view of skin health. I believe that true skin care goes far beyond topical products. The health of your skin is deeply connected to your overall well-being—everything from gut function, sleep, and stress levels, to the impact of medication, the microbiome, and emotional health plays a role. By addressing these internal factors, I offer a more comprehensive approach to treating and nurturing your skin.
Whether it's learning from the latest research, attending workshops, or collaborating with fellow professionals, I am always excited to find fresh insights that I can share with you. Your skin deserves more than just a surface-level treatment, and I'm here to support you every step of the way on your journey to true skin wellness.

I have a deep passion for art and painting, which you may notice as you explore my space. I also love creativity in the way of interior design and digital design! (Comes in handy when you’re the sole employee of you’re own business haha)
