✨ Finally sharing the gorgeous faces I painted at last month’s Strictly Seashells event! 💄
I had the absolute pleasure of creating looks for these three beautiful ladies, alongside my dream team of incredibly talented artists who I love, respect, and feel so lucky to work with who was missing from the team pic .annx

This was our second year back at the stunning Hilton Manchester Deansgate, and the backstage atmosphere was pure magic once again. The energy, the glam, and the incredible team spirit made it such a special night. We’re so grateful to be part of this event year after year. ❤️
All of this in aid of the wonderful Seashell Trust — an amazing charity and specialist school in Greater Manchester that provides life-changing education, care, and support for children and young people with complex and severe learning disabilities. Every bit of fundraising helps transform their lives.
More behind-the-scenes and beauty moments coming your way soon!

They say “do something you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”…

7 years ago, at 40, I took the leap ✨
Starting over in beauty, building something from scratch… and slowly finding my confidence along the way.

It didn’t happen overnight.
But now? I genuinely love every single minute of what I do.

The people I meet.
The stories I hear.
The transformations I get to create 🤍

Brows like this… that give someone their confidence back? That’s everything to me.

I can’t wait to meet more of you and help you feel like the best version of yourself — whether that’s skin, makeup, brows or lips.

Message me if you’re ready 💌

A little studio reveal… ✨

After a little refresh and re-renovation, my space is ready to welcome you again. In between clients today I realised I never take enough photos of the work I do, so I thought I’d share the place where it all happens instead.

This is where I get to welcome you for skincare, facials, makeup, hair and semi-permanent makeup (brows & lips).

Feeling very grateful for this beautiful space and for all of you who support my little business.

A few little tweaks… and a whole lot of confidence ✨

Jen first came to see me in January as a model for lip blush. After seeing how beautifully natural the result was, she decided to go for it and have her brows done too.

Fast forward to now and you can see how those small, subtle changes have completely framed her face. Everything still looks soft and natural — just a little more polished and effortless.

Jen is getting married in June and simply wanted to do a few things for herself in the run up to the big day. Nothing dramatic, just treatments that would help her feel confident and make her life a little easier day-to-day.

When we first met we also chatted about skincare. After trying a little borrow bag of products, she decided to go all in with a new Tropic routine. Six weeks later she’s already noticing such a difference in her skin — which you can definitely see in the after photo.

If you’re getting married this year or next, it’s worth thinking about the little things you can do ahead of time — whether that’s
✨ a facial
✨ semi-permanent brows or lips
✨ or upgrading your skincare routine.

These small investments in yourself can make such a difference, not just for the wedding day, but for every day leading up to it.

And I’m always very happy to help guide you through what might be right for you 💗

NB. Lip swelling can occur during the lip blush treatment this will go down in approx 24hr. Sorry girls I’m not able to make them bigger, just look more defined and enhanced naturally 💋

This is your reminder to book your brows ✨

Because when you’ve barely got any brow… and then suddenly your whole face is framed? Game. Changer.

Ombre brows aren’t about looking “done.”
They’re about structure. Balance. Definition.
They lift the eyes, frame the face and give you that polished look before you’ve even brushed your hair.

Especially going into summer ☀️
No smudging.
No sweating your pencil off.
No stressing about filling them in on holiday.

You wake up already halfway ready — and that quiet confidence it gives you? Honestly priceless.

If you’ve been thinking about it… this is your sign.
Get them booked.

At 40, after 20+ years as a fashion model, I retrained as a makeup artist – something I had always loved. Just a year later, Covid hit, and I threw myself into my Tropic business to keep going. I’m so glad I stuck at it, because now I get to help others feel confident while building my own confidence too 💕✨

At 40, after 20+ years as a fashion model, I trained as a makeup artist – something I had always dreamed of doing. A year in, Covid hit, and I had to lean into my Tropic business just to keep going. But I stuck with it.

Now, I get to do what I truly love every day – helping others feel beautiful, confident, and empowered, while building my own confidence along the way 💕

Never give up on that thing that sets your soul on fire ✨
