My 
Story

Some of my earliest memories are of watching my mum get ready—her delicate brushstrokes, the way she blended her blush just so, and the confidence that seemed to bloom with every swipe of lipstick. She taught me everything I know about beauty, not just in the products she used, but in the way she carries herself. Thanks to her, I (mostly) dodged the awkward teenage makeup phase—lucky me!

​

That love for beauty turned into a career spanning over 15 years. It started with a BTEC National Diploma in Beauty Therapy Sciences, where I learned the science of skin—how it reacts, glows, and transforms. From there, I trained with some of the best: Clinique, where I built my skincare knowledge, and MAC Cosmetics, where I mastered makeup artistry on every skin tone, age, and face shape imaginable. Those years shaped me into the artist I am today: a specialist in radiant, never-overdone bridal makeup, an advocate for inclusivity, and an expert at keeping brides calm—one mascara wand at a time.

I live in Northstowe, Cambridge, with my two beautiful babies, Delilah and Bodhi, and my best friend and love of my life, Tim.

 

My days are a mix of wedding mornings, bespoke makeup lessons, and creating natural but face-framing brows with my permanent makeup expertise. When I’m not working magic with my brushes, you’ll find me indulging in almond croissants (it’s an addiction, really), taking long walks to justify said croissants, binge-reading psychological thrillers, or enjoying a well-earned glass of red wine—because balance.

Oh, and I sing! It runs in the family—my dad’s a singer too—so don’t be surprised if you catch me humming along during a makeup session.

​

​

But beyond the makeup, my real passion is people. I love meeting brides, hearing their love stories, and being part of such a special chapter in their lives. Whether I’m creating a glowing bridal look, sculpting the perfect brow, or levelling up my business skills, one thing remains true: I’m here to help women feel their most beautiful, confident selves.

​

Thank you for taking the time to read my story—I hope it resonates with you. If you love my makeup and feel like we’d be a great fit, I’d love to hear your story too!
